I've grown accustomed to holding something while I walk. When my hands don't have anything to hold on to as I move, I tend to walk in a peculiar way. That's why I never leave the house without a bag or a long wallet in my grip. I know that it makes me look like a college student, especially because I go to work in casual clothes, but I just shrug it off and feel privileged. I mean,
at least I get to earn money while wearing comfortable sneakers and jeans while others have to wear heavy leather shoes and heat-trapping slacks.

My school office bag (I love biking!) |
Now, we've all read those blog posts about what women have in their bag. The usual stuff are make-up, face powder, lip gloss -- things that are associated with their gender. But what about men? Have you ever wondered what's inside a guy's bag? Since neckties, gaming equipment, and testosterone are mostly identified with males, do you expect a typical guy to bring these on any given day?
Let's see what's in MY bag, shall we? On a normal work day, the contents would be these:
Looks like a lot, huh? Yes, I have such organizing skills. Believe it or not, I can fit even MORE stuff than that inside my bag. Here's a closer look at the items:
 |
A bag within a bag (Wet tissue, perfume, alcohol, toothbrush, toothpaste, and drugs medicine) |
 |
Nokia E63 (Review coming soon) |
 |
Jacket (It's cold in the office.) |
 |
Umbrella (It never leaves the bag. You never know when it will rain!) |
 |
Baunan (I eat packed lunch at work.) |
 |
Earphones (I feel incomplete without them.) |
 |
Keys (My parents lock the gates as early as 9:00 PM.) |
 |
Notepad, post-it, and ballpen (Work essentials) |
 |
Long wallet (The "other" bag) |
Here are the runners-up (the ones I seldom bring):
 |
Phone charger and eyeglass case |
There you go! Now that you've seen what I bring with me to work, if you need anything from these (especially the wet tissue *wink*) just go ahead and ask. LOL! By the way, I'm not saying that I represent all the guys out there who use bags. I'm just one sample of the whole population, plus it's a personal thing, so I'm sure we're all different. But, who knows, there might really be a guy who carries testosterone in his bag every day.
What about you? What's in your (or your man's) bag?
