I got this bag as a just-because gift a couple years ago from a great aunt who lives in Virginia. At first I didn't really use it because I thought the gorilla keychain gave the bag a very creepy and manly aura. Why didn'tja just take the keychain off, Dum-dum? I'm not sure. But while packing up my apartment room in Virginia to go to Mexico for Christmas, the practical section of my brain must have taken over without my knowing because the only bag that made it across the border was this one. And so I brought it with me to Spain, all the while planning to use my backpack for the majority of the time. But for some reason, I can't stop using this bag. Its waterproof exterior (and interior) has proven its dependability in the rainiest of weathers. There are so many pockets of all sizes, and they're very useful. I keep my keys in one, coins in another. It doesn't seem like a large bag, but it's like one of those minivans in the commercials where they emphasize how spacious it is by having a football team's worth of people come out of its doors. Plus, the gorilla keeps me company when I'm waiting for the bus or elevator. I like having it suck its thumb since its puckered mouth is practically begging for it. Anyways, this is a good bag.
In no reasonable order: metro ticket stubs, student id, corn chip snacks, museum tickets, pens and highlighters, leisure reading, receipts from Mercadona, my red umbrella, my little Gideon Bible, bottled water, post cards, keys, study flash cards, textbooks, an orange, coins, and lots and lots of maps.
