School Bag
« on: January 17, 2008, 11:24:51 pm »

Well as a uni student now, I was wondering what type of bags do students use?
Like messenger bags such as crumpler ones, country road bags or just the good old back pack?
I was thinking of a crumpler bag but not sure if it can fit all my books.
Anyone have any recommendations?

Someone else brought this up on BoS last year. Go for whatever suits you. If everyone has the same you'll all look like conforming idiots lol.

Country road bags suck.

Just bring whatever. I bring the good ol' back pack because it holds my stuff without lopsiding me.

exactly! when it comes to heavy books, the good ol' backpack will do the job best, without hurting your back, etc.  ;)
otherwise, I like messenger bags, though I dont have one. LOL

Whatever works for your back.

Seriously, you'll be lugging it everywhere.

I kinda regret getting a messenger bag style bag. As it large enough to fit my laptop and probably enough supplies to last me two days (sans sleeping bag) - it can get verry heavy.

ok.. from what i heard from friends already at uni, you don't need to bring textbooks around. during lectures you have to write your own stuff and its not from textbook but from powerpoints and in tutorials just share someone's book. So i guess ill get a crumpler messenger bag then.

So is it actually necessary to bring your text books to every lecture? Does the lecturer sometimes refer to certain pages which relate to the concepts they are explaining throughout the lecture?

I'm gonna use my grey/black backpack that I got in year 9 for our Grampians camp, with space for a laptop as well. It's been up and down mountains with me, on horseback, our Portsea retreat... gosh I never looked at a bag with nostalgia before.

Nick: I dont know if this is still relevant, but we hardly consulted our massive calculus textbooks during enhancement maths lectures. Occasionally it was pulled out for example questions, but not much else, apart from revision.

No.

But you might want to look at them afterwards in the library, perhaps?
