Why I’ve spent a semester of middle school without a backpack. And I’m going to do it next semester, too.

Backpacks are annoying. They (sometimes) cut into your next, they weigh a lot, and they’re a bit annoying to carry around everywhere. Plus, having a bunch of space encourages you to carry more stuff, and it gets heavier and heavier.

So I bought myself a computer sleeve, which included a pocket for papers and cords, and a double sided zipper binder, and set my backpack aside. Turns out, I really only need the computer sleeve, except for a couple of days when I have classes that require more papers.

My pocket of cords and supplies. It’s nice and organized, and has more space then my old backpack did for the same pocket.

I scan my papers when possible, and discard them, so at most I carry around 20 papers at once. It weighs little, and is super easy to carry. I haven’t had any problems with it.

I organize my papers by the date I last used it, and since I only have 20 papers, I can quickly scan through them. Although I don't have tabs, it becomes easier for me to put my stuff in the right place, so I lose less papers. Sadly, teachers who hand back everything at once become your organization system’s enemy, and it becomes harder to keep everything, but I take them home and drop them off into a bin of archived papers.

Since my school doesn’t use papers after the quarter they were assigned, after each quarter,  I remove all my papers, and put them in the bin or archived papers.

It’s been super nice, and I’ve gotten all my stuff into something I can easily access.
