I use my LL Bean backpack to bring my books and what not to and from school and I just carry my book at school and put the ones I don't need in my locker.
It's the perfect size to take to classes (I live on campus and can drop things off at my room in between classes), and it fits my laptop if need be (but it's too heavy to carry around campus LOL). I also have a laptop messenger for bringing my laptop places.
I think I will just carry a backpack around for university because I have to carry my laptop and some binders and such. Urgh but they are always so uncomfortable. I have a backpack that's Grey/Red and is comfy.
I go to a private school and we have to use the standard navy backpack and sports bag to carry our stuff to and from school and if we are found with anything else we instantly get a friday detention [D3]
and we have to carry our books by hand to and from class and our lockers.
We aren't allowed to have big tote bags or backpacks !! So the guys can't carry anything but us girls can get away with a purse(usually the biggest we can find!!) or a small tote bag that is used as a purse. I really don't like the bag rules but I guess thats how it goes!!
Green and Black Lowe Alpine hikers backpack. It can take weight off my upper back - which is great because college biology textbooks tend to be at least twice the size of those used in high school.
I just bought this bag from target today, which I might use, but it'll probably be too small and hurt my shoulder. I'll probably just use my backpack from last year.
Why must we mention school. I dread September.
I know a lot of people here will probably be starting up again soon, but this topic is so depressing for me
