The only backpack I have at the moment is one that is yellow and navy blue and it's a Roxy one... it just looks almost too schoolkiddish to wear to uni because it's kinda squarish shape.... I dunno what bag to take, this moving thing is so hard because you have to decide to take so few things and keep your choices so narrow! Plus I have had to spend so much cash lately, I'll be broke before I get to uni at this rate....

Surf clothes are the best!!! What stuff do the rest of ya wear? Nike? Adidas? pffftt

Try DFO at Homebush!! I'm going over there to the Surf shops!! They have EVERYTHING. They have a Billabong shop there, plus generic surf shops..

Or go down to Cronulla St! (that big walkway from Cronulla Station down to Kingsway) They have heaps as well, every surf brand under the sun ;)

Or Market City..maybe. LOL, they have the Mambo shop upstairs ;) I wouldn't trust the markets downstairs for a bag that I'm gonna have expensive books in.. I mean, I but heaps from there, and I think I had a bag for school from there, but not for Uni. It'll break ;) It's cheap, you get watch pay for from the markets.

Like I said, DFO or Cronulla. Or Big W ;)

Although, why don't ppl just use their old school bags? unless they're wreaked. (mine is now, after using it non stop to go to the beach ;) rips here, holes there, sand everywhere!

Well I have had the same bag since the start of Year 11, so it is kind of old and the shoulder straps are broken:).

P.S. What does o_O mean? I am seeing it everywhere:).

not a fresh start, just an excuse to get rid of my old stuff! i get so bored of the same things, and during the year feel bad changing them because they don't need changing.

but by the beginning of the next year i am so sick of them, my excuse is that it's the next year, if that makes sense

Im using a satchel bag from FCUK.. it was a christmas present from the rents and ive already broken i in around vietnam over the holidays so its fine for me!

Surf brands are fine.. if you like it then use it! I dont like them so i dont wear them! AND surf brands seem to cost just as much as some designer brands anyway...
