This question may be absurd but you must not have noticed the important things you keep in your bag. Well just try to imagine these things. I keep my purse, an umbrella, and a small make-up kit. The make-up kit contains all the things which I carry always, that is my powder, cream, comb, lipstick, perfume, blush and eyeliner. I also have a small diary and a pen. Tell me about you.

I carry a huge bag and always have so much stuff that I don't need. I just feel more secure when I have it all lol. I carry sunscreen (in summer), my camera, make up, coupons, my wallet, hair ties, a book, lotions, my glasses case, gum, my inhaler, an extra phone case, headphones, and i think there a re even paperclips in my bag right now lol. I get teased that 'm carrying a suitcase, because the bag is pretty big, but I put my school books in it too when I have class. I love this question!

Hi Roses and verolop, I am happy to learn the things you keep in your bag. This gives me ideas about the things missing in my bag. Soon I am going to add them but I will make sure to keep my mobile is a separate compartment so that when it rings I will not have to look for it. One thing I won't keep is the pocket knife because it is forbidden here in my country. If the police catch us with it, we have to pay fine.

Yes you are right. You have piece of mind when you know you have everything you need in your bag. You will not have to rely on anyone to give you things you will want in emergency. I also have painkillers, pins and wound wrap in my bag.

Bra has always been a small hidden pocket which is useful for ladies. I often use my bra to keep things, specially money and small keys or papers. As for bags I have a different bag for work which contains more things than I go to places or shopping. I have a bigger bag for work.

The things that are always present in my bag are my pens, scissors, paste, highlighter, stapler and the common things that a normal student carries. haha Paper is not that frequent for I sometimes forget on bringing some paper at school.

That's nice. You are indeed a good student. Well, I hope you bring your copybooks if you forget to bring paper at school. I carry two red pens and one blue pen. Guess why? Because I am a teacher. Goodluck for your studies kenshin.

Usually i will have a small caliber handgun or a swiss knife along with some cash, credit cards, ID, cell phone, house key, iPod and PDA inside my bag, it is a necessity for me since i have to pass by a bad neighborhood each day on my way to work. Nowadays you just can't find peace and personal safety in public street even though you are a peaceful person, someone will try to mug you on your way to work, play or school.

Almost the same like you. Some clothes, mineral bottle, my purse, an umbrella, compact powder and lip balm along with a pen and a small notebook. I like to bring a mineral bottle with me as I don't like to buy outside drinks. I bring all those thing in my backpack as I don't like to carry handbag.(^^)

My bags are full of comfort items. Stuff that I don't really use when I go out but just wanted to bring it along in case I would be needing it. I have purse, a comb, umbrella, make-up kit (which I don't use... I put powder and lipstick before I go out.. never fond of retouching... waste of time. ^__^) mobile phone, pocket tissue and extra hanky.

the things that i do not forget to carry with me in the bag are mostly my purse, a mirror, small papers, comb, powder and a pen. I feel these things can help me in some way or the other whenever i need them.
