Twenty back-to-school hacks in under ten minutes — that’s the pitch, and most of them actually hold up.

TheThings Celebrity dropped “20 Things EVERY TEENAGER Should Know Before Back To School” in late July 2017, right as families started circling the calendar for the first day back. The video skips celebrity gossip entirely and instead runs through a rapid-fire checklist of study tricks, DIY school-supply projects, and locker-stocking advice built for middle and high schoolers staring down a fresh academic year.

• The guide claims writing notes in blue ink — not black — improves recall when students review material later, a memory trick pitched as one of the video’s core study hacks.
• Three DIY projects anchor the crafting segment: building a multi-colored rainbow highlighter, upcycling a worn backpack with personalized embellishments, and decorating a locker for maximum storage.
• The video walks through assembling a “school survival kit,” recommending spare gym shoes, extra water bottles, and basic personal care items as locker staples for unexpected school-day situations.

The Blue Ink Trick and Other Study Shortcuts

The video’s academic section leans on small, testable adjustments rather than sweeping study-schedule overhauls. The headline tip — swapping a black pen for a blue one — is framed as a retention booster, the idea being that color variation helps the brain flag and later recall specific details when flipping back through notes before a quiz. It’s paired with broader advice on structuring study time so it doesn’t collapse into last-minute cramming the night before a test.

None of it requires new supplies or a big time investment, which is the point: these are adjustments a student can make on day one without waiting for a syllabus or a teacher’s permission slip.

DIY Projects for the Locker and Backpack

The crafting segment is where the video spends most of its runtime, walking through three separate builds step by step. The rainbow highlighter project shows how to combine multiple highlighter cores into a single multi-colored tool, useful for students who color-code notes by subject or priority. The locker decoration segment focuses on maximizing storage in a space that’s often barely two feet wide, while the backpack upcycling tutorial takes a worn-out bag and dresses it up with personalized touches instead of replacing it outright.

Twenty tips, no filler about outfits or first-day photos — just supplies, storage, and study tricks a teenager can act on before the bell rings.

Building the School Survival Kit

The final stretch of the video pivots to daily readiness, running through what should be sitting in a locker before it’s actually needed. The recommended list is short but specific: a spare pair of gym shoes, extra water bottles for hydration between classes, and basic personal care items to cover the kind of small emergencies that don’t wait for a convenient moment. It’s less about novelty and more about not getting caught flat-footed on a day that’s already stressful enough.

Taken together, the study hacks, the crafts, and the survival kit form a checklist a student could realistically knock out over a single weekend before classes start — pens sorted, locker stocked, backpack refreshed.

TheThings Celebrity built this one as a pure utility video, the kind meant to get bookmarked and revisited every August rather than watched once and forgotten — and for a channel that usually runs on Hollywood headlines, a rainbow highlighter tutorial is about as far from red-carpet territory as it gets.
