among the vastness of work, tedium, pressure, deadlines, responsibilities, failure and more hard work, there is a heaven. and it is called “stuff that makes you happy”. and within that realm of stuff, there are many things which could be included – or excluded, depends on who you are.

me for example, i dislike shopping. i love the result of a properly completed shopping course, however the process is a pain from every aspect. the choosing, the lines, the trying on, the prices, the choosing…

however, the result of such “hard” “work” is STUFF. stuff like tasty food, or pretty clothes, or (well, here shopping is mostly a pleasant process, its the paying that sucks) new lenses or new cameras, new computers, new books, new photographs, or as such is this case, a shiny new bag

indeed my friends. it is the age of brightness, blueness, and my newly acquired ability to purchase a new bag on the paycheck that i’ve gotten this week. my first paycheck too!

the crappy photograph on the left (not mine, googled) vaguely demonstrates the excellent qualities of my new purchase. first of all, it is bright blueish green (in my biased colorblind opinion. some might say just blue, and since these some are nine west designers i shall call it the BLUE BAG). this particular hue is almost quite and not entirely identical to my new shoes which were purchased some previous time ago. but this isn’t where the joys of this beauty end.

oh, no.

it has transparent pockets. how cool is that? one, with a zipper, and on the other side, 2 smaller ones, with no zippers. mmm, useful. and the trim (there’s a trim!) is a pseudo leather, colored tan. quite the stylish combination, even if i do say so. outside of style, this beauty has function. first, it has a very nifty magnetic lock on the top. second, the bottom is hard-lined, making it safer for various fragile objects.

“but, olya, what fragile objects could you carry?” you would question. this is where the Function part comes! my laptop fits into this bag perfectly. not only that, there are 3 smaller bags, 2 with mirrors and one for a cellphone that come with this bag. “GET TOTALLY ORGANIZED” says nine west, and i obey, for my life shall be extremely organized with this bag.

in other small joys, it sits pleasantly in my hand, its large enough without being bulky, and it will fit things other than my laptop neatly. and the small purses look like they will become useful on certain occasions. and there are smaller pockets inside as well.
and, here is the bestest part.
i just managed to waste 5 minutes of your life with a descrption of a bag. in words of the ikea man, “is because you are crazy.”
