It’s the season where we’re all getting back to school… Some of us have returned already, some of us return soon. I myself am returning tomorrow! And I just had a question for all of you who have already returned to school/are preparing like me to return.
What are you packing in your bag for school?
I myself have a folder with paper, pens, pencils, my trusty calculator, a flash drive, and earbuds. I’ll put my lunch and water in it tomorrow.
Anyone wish to share? 
I already started school a few days ago, and here’s what I packed:
- My trusty pencil pouch with my pencils, pens, highlighters, erasers, etc.
- 2 folders for random papers (no real organization system right now)
- Box of colored pencils
- AP World notebook
- Honors Chem notebook
- APES composition notebook
- AP Calc AB binder
- Graphing calculator (for AP Calc) and scientific calculator (Honors Chem)
- Lunch
- Phone/earbuds
- Planner/Agenda
That’s all I can think of for now 
Hi! I go back on September 8th! X_X
I need so much stuff, I would list all my supplies but its literally, 93 things total!!!
@writer80, wow, you still have a long time before going to school! Same, I bring soooo many supplies to school, way more than I listed up there ^^ haha
I have about 1,000 school supplies
If you count all of the pieces of paper separately lol
93 is just required! Let alone everything else I “need” its probably closer to 130 lol. My locker is basically my warehouse haha @Mathophile26
I’m going back on September 21st so I dont even have to think about it for like a month, but I’m taking all college classes so I’m going to have my laptop, a folder with some paper in it (maybe 4, one per class and one for other stuff) and my pencil case with different writing stuff. I’ll also have food, water, sports clothes, headphones, phone etc.
@writer80, haha, I wish my school had lockers/“warehouses”. I wouldn’t have to carry 50 pounds on my back the entire time lol.
Lol, I am keeping everything in my backpack and then re-stocking again like in December! Lol @Mathophile26
@Mathophile26 Does your school not have lockers? Yikes
@awesomepolyglot, nope. I always though high schools had lockers (blame movies and TV), and was shocked when I discovered that my school didn’t have them. We only have small PE lockers, but that’s pretty much it. Thank goodness we don’t have to carry our textbooks or anything 
TI-84
Pearson Chemistry (Indiana p.p)
James Stewart Single Variable Calculus 8th Edition, with Early Transcendentals
Art of Problem Solving Book 1: The Basics
Three different single-subject notebooks
A little, mini-notebook that I use for sketches and personal planning (also emergency notes)
Siddartha Mukherjee’s The Gene
Haruki Murakami’s Hard-Boiled Wonderland
like a lot of pencils
HP i5 ProBook w/ charger (provided by the school! thanks, 1:1 technology initiative)
the backpack itself is a JanSport; I wanna make it last me through college (and maybe grad school too, lol)
and @awesomepolyglot yeah mine doesn’t have lockers either
@OMPursuit, you have to carry your textbooks to school every day?
@OMPursuit didn’t your school used to be a hardware store?
And don’t complain about Pearson, I have to use Glencoe. Ugh.
I have a binder for almost every subject, Bob (my laptop), textbooks, a notebook, pencil box, planner (I don’t wanna say agenda bc stereotypes lmao), Insomnia by Steven King, my phone, my calculator, earbuds, water bottle, assorted trash.
The backpack I have is supposed to last for 2-4 years, but I broke a strap by the end of freshman year :)>-
Lol, I plan on that! @awesomepolyglot
lmao, it did @awesomepolyglot
did I mention that 0.o
also I’m unsure if you’re familiar with Pearson ;.;
also yup, I most certainly do @Mathophile26 p.p
At least my calculus book. My chemistry teacher has spare copies for everyone in the room (I didn’t have to /buy/ that one), so I can keep it at home (but I’d rather not, seeing how I like to study around town :>).
@OMPursuit, that’s a lot to carry!
@OMPursuit Pahh, you go out and study? What a nerd.
(I say, with my AP Bio textbook open on my lap, at the pool)
my best socialization comes from talking while halfheartedly taking notes
@awesomepolyglot
plus, each time I have to explain what I’m reading to a friend is awesome practice for the concepts :0
