My Big Fat Bag
One of my secrets in the 10 Day You Challenge was… “I can’t move out of the home without my big bag. It weighs more than a kilo and has all the things, I might possibly need at any point of time! So, even for grocery shopping down the lane, my big fat bag travels with me!”
On reading this Chicky a.k.a. Kaddu commented … “I am curious to know what’s in your big fat bag! :p Another blog post for it? 1 kg ke bag pe ek blog post to banta hai, right? :p”
Thank you Kaddu for a blog-post idea!
So, what’s in My Big Fat Bag?? The inside secret is revealed here…
- These are the Card Holders which houses multiple cards… Debit Cards, various Store Cards, Game Cards etc… Yeah, they are so many that 2 card holders are needed for that!
- They say that the two most beautiful words in the English language are ‘cheque enclosed. Sadly, this Cheque Book Holder just has my cheque book along with a million other papers, receipts, bills etc
- A woman’s best protection is a little money of her own, said Clare B Luce and I carry my little money in a wallet and a separate bag for the coins!! Yeah, a small bag just for the coins!!
- To capture the memories for the future or those unusual sights for the Wordless Wednesdays, this cybershot comes in handy when the big brother Nikon SLR is not around.
- For that nauseating feeling while travelling or sudden hunger pangs or for the children around… a bag of chocolates and candies are a must too.
-
The meticulous me needs a diary and pens to make lists or jot sudden thoughts/ideas and of course a calculator to calculate 2+2. The calculator in my phone is very cumbersome, hence this calculator has found it’s place in the bag. Am thinking of replacing it with a bigger calci, coz it’s tedious to calculate with such a small keypad!
- And the indispensable Mobile, travels in the bag always.
- The sunglasses are mandatory too to protect the delicate eyes!
- The visiting cards are meant to be exchanged, so all the cards are carefully stacked in the mini briefcase VC holder!
- And the pious me, needs God too by my side and the tech savvy me could need a Pen Drive or the USB stick anytime.
- Last but not the least, my best friends a.k.a my books are an integral part of my bag. Currently I am reading Phoenix Ritu’s book!
And all these things make my bag a Big Fat Bag, which is not only my saviour and friend but also helps me in increasing my stamina too!

Wow, I don’t remember carrying that much stuff even in my brat’s diaper bag 😉 Kidding! I always carry a back-pack these days, with bare necessities.. purse, mobile and a little junk. Finito 🙂

My bag has a wallet, visiting card holder, comb, mirror, kohl, lipstick. compaq powder (I don’t use make up otherwise, but I carry my backback even for weddings, thus these come handy), sanitiser, ciggis, lighter, matchbox, mint, book, pen, keys, cheque book, external hard disk, charger, band-aid and a few more things.
Mon says – mein pura sansar le ke chalti hu apne saath.

I am sorry but I can’t read this post… You know its rude and ill-mannered to take a sneak peek inside a ladies’ bag 😛
October 25, 2011 7:28 am|

Oh God!! You revealed it. You could have kept it a secret lifelong, but you made it public. You really got a BIG HEART!!
Wish you a happy Diwali.

Sigh…..mine is equally heavy as there are so many things which are ‘essential!’

Hi dropped in thro’ Sujatha Sathya. This is an amazing & awesome list of things to carry, but I suppose each single item is indispensable !

I have a big fat bag too 🙂 But reading this have realized that my big fat bag is so so so unorganised, that I never find anything I need 🙂 I have most of what you have except the cheque book, and visiting cards. Actually no snacks either. But I do have loads of receipts that are begging to be binned 🙂

I just read this one. Wow! bag is not even big enough to carry everything, is there a secret chamber or something 😀 You place god and internet together- typical blogger 😀 😀
I am telling you this is our weakness. The world needs to know less about these bags 😛 We are playing it wrong by talking so much about them!! 😀 😛
