Sometimes I think I shouldn't carry big bags because I fill it up and my shoulder and back start to hurt. But then if I don't, I will have to carry paper bags and plastic bags and all sorts of random items and then my hands and arms and fingers will hurt as well. I'm the kind who likes to lug everything in one enormously heavy burden so my hands are kept free.
The other day I came back so tired from carrying my bag I decided to take pictorial evidence of the reason why. So that when I'm old with a bad back I can see I only have myself to blame.

I also like filling my bag with things, books, mags, notebooks... but the magazines always end up crumpled with dog ears :(
ah yes. but i tell myself it's okay if i'm the one who dog-ears my books/magazines. some wear and tear gives them a different flavour.
but can you survive with a small bag? i just can't, no matter what.
Yeah I also throw my books into a big bag. I, too, like that books and notebooks get a little dirty/dog-eared, they add a certain flavour, like they've been through something, a journey. But folded/torn mags....
Come to think of it, I don't really own any small bags! Haha
