How many things inside your bags?
Can you find easily what you need inside your bag? when your phone ring do you know where to get to answer the call?Do you know where are your coins when you need a coins to pay the bus and even buy some drinks? How about some documents and receipts inside your bag, your coins, cosmetics,cellphone and many other stuff in your bags?
I came up with this topic when I was invited for a dinner of a friends birthday party.We are in the middle of the dinner and her phone suddenly ring she couldn't find her phone immediately and she missed the call.
And she was bit upset.And when she check the bill she find out that she left her wallet inside her car so she end up asking some cash...She asked me to help her find her phone inside her bag and to surprised no wonder she couldn't find her things inside her bags,because her bag is like a "forest"
She need a part time helper to tidy up her bag.lol...
MIne has a small individual tiny bags which i usually put my stuff separately a folder to organize some paper documents a pocket for my celphone and purse for coins, cosmetics bag for myself.
How about you guys, Hows inside your bags?
Do you need to ask somebody to organized your stuff?
I would like to hear from you my fellow myLotters,Good day everyone!

you seem to be in a very good mood today. and you really made me happy... actually, the mountaineering thing is part of the cardio exercise i have to do on a regular basis... but it can be replaced by long hikes, even stair climbs in buildings... i really love your disposition today, my friend.

Right now I have a bag that just isn't going to work for long. I like one with a divider and different compartments. This one just has one and slots on either end. Not for me. I liked the way it looked on the outside and my daughter got it for me. I will have to find something else to use.

When I carry a big bag it becomes full of junk I never use, a small bag just doesn't seem big enough. Things get thrown in there to be thrown away later but only get throw out much later.
I now have a medium sized bag with different compartments so it's easier to find everything, which is most helpful.

Yes I am glad to have this bag now as my prior one though cute was way too small. The strap broke and I needed to replace the bag, so I was given the one I have now.

Hey cloud! Another wonderful discussion topic! And one that is
very important! I try to keep my handbags organized, but for
some reason when my phone rings I too can never find it quickly
no matter which pocket I put it in! Luckily for me it very rarely
rings!lol But, as for my wallet, credit cards and other important
things those are easy to find! I have a girlfriend who is so
annoying, much like your friend! She can never find anything in
her handbag! She can't find her keys, cell phone, money, glasses
and is always in a panic! And it is always so stressful and
annoying! But, that is how she lives! She can never find anything
in her apartment either! I am pretty organized, except once in
awhile when I do forget where I put something!lol

Hi dear!
My bag is a mess! I like to have a slighter bigger bag so I can carry more stuff. I always want to be prepared for anything so there's lots of things in there. But then I can never find what I need when I need it. Whenever I get a new bag, I make sure to organize it and put everything in pockets and stuff so I can find them. However as time goes on, I guess I get lazy and start just shoving everything into the same main pocket. Plus it seems that I collect garbage like old receipts, tissues, gum wrappers in there. In no time at all, it's a huge mess.
And where I work, our bosses check out bags when we leave to make sure we're not stealing anything. It's pretty embarrassing having my boss looking at my messy bag.

wow! kedralynn,
sounds like a little bit of myself,
your boss might say in his mind, "what a messy bag is this?"
sometimes our personal things like bags represent what kind of individuals we are.
i almost hate myself sometimes when i feel like mess in my things.
well,sometimes like emergency,even if how organized you are in your things,there might be an instance where you should put your things in unproper orders.
yeah,it really happens that's why sometimes i end my day,fixing my things in their proper places.

Yes I sometimes feel ashamed by it too. My messy bag shows how disorganized I can be. It makes people think I'm messy all the time! Which I'm not. It's just that sometimes I'm in a hurry. I take the time to clean out and reorganize my bag tho usually once a month so it doesn't get too bad :)

I hate pockets all because you can never find anything. No matter how organized you are as a person the pocketbook does not stay organized for very long. I'm always loosing my lipstick or my bank card. I'm learning to put the bank card back in the wallet after purchasing something but there is always that day that I don't. Then I'm taking the pocketbook apart looking for it while having a heart attack. Right now my pocketbook is cleanout and organized however, I know after my next trip out it will again become messy. There has to be a better way.

Speaking about bags. I can never find anything in my bookbag when it comes time for class.. I am always digging for a pencil or a pen plus I am so unorganized that it's hard to find notes I usually store in them. Maybe I should be more organized.. Maybe we should buy bag accessories to help keep our things organized? lol

Hi lelin,
Some people not fond in organizing their bags and they end up looking stuff inside like nowhere to found since its all in a mess inside.Well,there were times that we really forget where our things are and its really embarrassing digging our bags when things is missing.That we can avoid that by organizing our things inside perhaps you have a better a idea welcome to share with us.
Thanks!

Hi Miss Cloud! I often use a bag, unless I have too much thing to carry
. I easily find the things I have inside my bag because I segregate small things from bulky one. Happy Mylotting and Have a nice day!! GBU...

Haha. Merely looking at my bag won't even entice a thief. Things overflow and my bag's zippers are opened because I can no longer close it. It's so unorganized and it is only me who can know where my things are in the bag.

My bag is always messy. But it's what I would like to call organized mess. I got lots of things. One time, I even found a carbide burr in it. And there was that time I carried jigsaw spare and some drill bits. Occupational hazard, I guess.
Usually, I have a wallet...make that two wallet. One has cards that I rarely use normally, and the other one has small cash, debit or credit cards that I regularly use, etc. And then I have a small mesh bag to carry small bottle of lotion, lipgloss, comb,etc. I usually put my mobile phone in the side pocket so it will be easier to pull out when it rings. Receipts and papers are just thrust in. Most of the time, I carry a small pack of wet tissue, especially when I'm out with my kids.
When I buy handbag, I always make sure that the main pocket is big enough and that there are side pockets and inside zipper.

mINE is not too bad but i'm sure could stand some straightening up, haven't done that in awhile. The bag i'm using right now has no pockets & everything goes to the bottom.

Hi Cloud,
I usually carry a small bag, but inside, the small things are kept in a pouch for me to easily locate them. I put my phone in my pocket so that when it rings it would be easy for me to respond. And if I place it inside my bag I see to it that it will be in a separate area so I know where to get once it rings. For the bills and receipts I insert them in small notebook so that it will not be mixed with the other stuff inside my bag.

I always carry my belt bag. I used to carry all the time. Wherever I go especially going shopping, collecting payment, or paying in the taxi, a belt bag comes in handy. It has lots of pocket where I can put my wallet, cellphones, keys and even a special pocket so I could easily pick up a coins. I cant go without this belt bag. It is already part of my lifestyle.

All my bags seem to have this secret compartment where all my things get sucked up in when I'm trying to look for them, seriously. When I open my bag, I would normally see somthing that I don't need for the moment but the next time that I'm looking for that very thing that I just saw, I just couldn't find it.
I know I should just organize my bag more efficiently. :D

my bag is a crazy crazy mess! i can never find anything...my phone included... every time i look for something it looks like im just digging ;p
but then again my purse is huge and i have the opportunity to put just about anything in there, and i use that for an excuse. so maybe my solution would be to get smaller bags. and thats funny i remind myself of your friend :(
