I haven't yet settled on a bag; I have a really large tote, which I'm thinking of using:

I really don't like man bags. Or murses. Or whatever you want to call them. I definitely prefer for a guy to carry a book bag instead of a purse if at all possible.

I got a green one.

Well, in that case you know I like it.

I will get an EEE

TITRC. But they have an eee pc 901 and 1000h coming out soon that will include the intel atom chip. These 9" screen babies are perfect for taking notes and short writings, though I might want to use a computer lab I'm going to be writing for a long time.

And they are way cheap and super light. I'm putting my purchase off as long as possible though, cause there are others coming out that are also looking good, such as the MSI wind.

I usually use those big colorful Lululemon gym bags. I have the convienence of living on campus so I never really need all my books on me.

What about stuff from Jack Spade?

[Circe]

Is he related to Kate Spade? lol I've never heard of him...

[Merrill]

I don't know about Jack Spade's relation to Kate, but his bags are awesome:

He also produced a bag for Apple:

Good to see I'm not the only one planning on getting a netbook. I'm going to wait it out and probably pick up an MSI Wind 10" or Dell E Slim 12". I don't get why everyone thinks they need a super fast notebook, it's really just for internet and docs anyhow. Small, light, and long battery life wins out any day.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I'm thinking about buying a mini/netbook. Its the acer aspire one, it weighs only 2lbs! Do any of you who use a netbook/mini have any complaints?

This thread reminds me of high school...

Not all large bags have to be casual. I have two I currently use to carry my computer and books - a really awesome red hermes one and a smaller tan furla one with purple flowers when I don't carry my laptop/am not wearing black. I figure I use similar things in law school/make full use of the lockers. I am not a backpack person except when I am doing sports.

Who exactly are you talking to Amy?

Responding to the theme of the thread? Need I quote every person who said anything about larger bags being casual and referred to backpacks?

No, but if you look, almost all of these posts are from June. Nobody who has posted recently is talking about large bags or purple flowers, or whatever.

I plan on having 4 little people carry me from class to class on a litter. Following behind will be a giant box of text books carried by 2 other little people.

Def a future BigLaw lawyer in the making!

I love this thread. I laughed, I cried, I bought a backpack:

Went super big -- I'm not messing around.

I know rolling bags are taboo in law school. Can I get away with using a bookbag with a waist belt? I tried one on and it looks a little dorky but I have a bad back and it's the only plausible alternative to a rolling bag I can see working for me. Will people be as judgmental about that as they are about rolling bags?

These are 2 examples of bags I am considering: http://www.altrec.com/gregory/womens-ma ... eAlsoWantA and --LinkRemoved--

Going to NYU, if that makes a difference.

NYU and NYC will laugh at you.

Darn.

I'm recovering for surgery and think I'm going to be forced to get a rolling bag since I can't carry more than 10 lbs. Does this mean I'm automatically going to be in the dork club?!?

I think the re-binding idea might be good despite my inclination to never harm a book.

For a backpack with a waist strap, or if I use a rolling bag?

[RUQRU]

The best way to find out what everyone else does is visit a law school during classes. This way you can see what the conventions are.

Why are law students so conformist? Do what makes you comfortable. You don't have to look like a little kid carrying their lunch on your back!

It's always nice to see Ms. D pop up.

By nice I mean run for your fucking lives.

You have a bad back and you're worried about a bag "taboo?" Silly rabbit.

Are you in law school yet? If not, you're going to be blown away by how similar LS is to high-school, especially in contrast to undergrad.

Lockers...
Clubs that all think they are the most important...
Locked-in curriculum...

Wow. Déjà vu.
