Last year, i just had a backpack..but it was really difficult walking around such a huge school and having to go back to my locker every time a class ended. So this year, I decided to carry around a big tote bag I could put notebooks in that I could bring to each class.
So what should I put in it? All I know is that i’m gonna put books in it. What else should I add?
