I think I posted on your other thread... but as a student I pretty much only get freeware. Here's what's stood the test of time for me:

iStat menus
Adium chat client
Caffeine to keep my screen on for youtube, etc
Bowtie iTunes controller
Firefox
EverSave, which does a timer-based autosave on all open documents
VideoMonkey video converter
Paintbrush (like MS Paint)

There's lots of sites out there that will give recommendations, but I've always found my favorites here on macforums from other users.
