What's In my Book Bag?

Ah yes, it's everyone's favorite time of year... Back to school! Yaaaaaay. The excitement is killing me. While sitting in 90 minute classes isn't exactly exciting, you can make it a little bit easier with a well stocked bag. 

I'm currently in college so this may be somewhat different for you if you're attending high school. 

To start off with, the bag itself is from Vera Bradley. I've had this for two years so I don't remember the print... I know, I'm terrible! I was tired of carrying around a boring old backpack, so I decided to get this one for $110. I know that is step for a bag but I use this all the time. It's great for short vacations! 

Something I find essential for school is hand sanitizer. I always use the B&B hand gels because I love the scents and I can hang it on the outside of my bag. Seriously, go get yourself some. I can't even tell you how many people I hear walking out of the bathroom without washing their hands. Eww. 

I always keep a planner, extra pens, and perfume in the front pocket of the bag. Not everyone likes using planners, but I think it's totally helpful. It takes two minutes to write things down and it will help you avoid forgetting about an assignment or a test. This planner was only $3 from Walmart. Cheap and cute! 

In the main pocket I keep typical boring school things. My textbooks, two binders, a notebook, and my laptop. I could honestly go without the binders because I don't use them much but they are very helpful keeping everything organized. My courses are technology based so I mainly use my laptop. I find it much easier to keep organized notes! 

Alright guys, that wasn't the most exciting post but heading back to school is unavoidable. Good luck and have fun studying!
