Electric Bag To A Friend

Back in my college days we never carried loads of book and exercise books like we did in schools. Those days were fun and only a couple of exercise books would be more than sufficient to attend classes. Therefore in those times we would spend our money in other things rather than on bags. Bags however have a very big role in our daily lives which I’ve realized only a few years back. Now I believe professionals from different sectors do need bags and not just students.

A friend of mine who is an electric mechanic remains busy all day long. He carries electric luggage loaded with meters, transistor, chips, wires, screws and many other different instruments. He has to travel a lot in an out of the town but he never leaves his bag. I had seen him carrying a normal bag to carry his equipments but when his sector of work expanded, he ordered a special kind of electric bag from abroad. It looked good and rugged at the same time and on top of that it had fluffy belt and was waterproof. That new bag literally added personality in him as he looked sharp and elegant when he carried it sideways while straddled on his motorcycle.

I however on the other hand don’t need such electric bags while going to my office because I don’t belong to electronic field. But ferrying my laptop to and from the office is a must. I do have a normal backpack which contains my laptops and some notebooks with stationery while on the way to work. I still regard my small backpack as an electric bag because it contains my laptop and has separate pockets which fit my adaptors and chords just right. The bag in which I carry my laptop is not waterproof and that’s why I am burdened by woes during the monsoon.

Until now I had never noticed bags and it used to be a dispensable unit to me but my concept has changed during my tenure at this new office. Colleagues carry fancy and nice bags to carry their documents and other belongings and seeming them on a daily basis I think I’ve started to develop a kind of fetish for bags in me. I had recently gifted a bag to my friend but she did not like at all may be because it did not have many pockets and it was a rough hand knit. On next special occasion I’d gift her a bag which I’m sure would be liked by her.

And to my mechanic friend, I have planned to gift him an electric backpack as a souvenir on his wedding. His wedding is due next month and I guarantee he’ll cherish this particular bag for a long time because I’ve already chosen a big which fits all his tools and meets all his requirement.
