Graduating from college makes us feel that we can now take on the world. But to be a true grown-up who has the answers to most problems (at least the basic ones) you have to pick up some life skills. Team YOU has collected links to videos that teach you a few important ones.

Changing a light bulb

• You've just come back to your room after a long day - to total darkness; the bulb has decided to call it a day. What do you do? If you are smart, you'll have an extra bulb in store, which you just have to pop out of the package and into the holder, after unscrewing the blown bulb, of course. Some people don't know how to change a light bulb. Such people may find a video tutorial on YouTube helpful. Just go to http:// bit.ly/2DKksOh. Keep in mind that the blown bulb may be hot if it had been glowing for a while before it went kaput.

Packing a suitcase

• When you live in a hostel, packing to go home usually means just dumping your (usually dirty) clothes anyhow into bags and suitcases but grown-ups should be able to pack an overnight case quickly and perfectly - so that your clothes arrive at your destination crease-free.
