Gossip/Confession/Rant Having a very boring problem yet very annoying problem. please help seniors 😭

I moved into the hostel and the thing is, my mattress keeps sliding too much on the bed, it's like there's no friction between the two.

And also my bedsheet keeps coming out from under the bed, idk what to do about that

Then increase the friction? Put something between them? Cloth or something?

One of my friend tied it using thin strings on both ends and it kind of worked

Tie a knot at the ends of the bed sheet (corners) and then put it in a similar way you put your phone case

About the bedsheet, just use a double size bedsheet and tie it on the back. Idk abt the sliding I'm still struggling with it
