Will you be carrying them from class to class the "old fashioned way" or do you have a book bag, etc?

I'm going to be carrying mine the old-fashioned way....I just pray they aren't going to be too heavy....I can't carry heavy books and a belly too....lol.

Oh Fatima be careful with those books and being pregnant and everything. IF you have to get one of those backpack on wheels. You can get a nice one for a reasonable amount from walmart, target or k-mart if you have one in your area.

I purchased my backpack on wheels! The best thing in the world. too many books to be carrying around.

*moans* oh sheeeeez....I haven't even thought about that yet. This whole thread reminds me of high school. Our passing periods were so short that I HAD to carry my books with me everywhere. I had to walk home from school about a mile and a half, and I remember there were times when I couldn't do my homework because I couldn't carry all my books home! I've definatly busted my share of backpack zippers trying to cram all the material in. :chuckle

Happily, I have a car now, so maybe it won't be too bad. I also have at least 15 minutes between all my classes, so I can either go out to my car and switch books or rent a locker. I'd rather have a messenger bag because :p I like the way they look. Lol!

Being an *adult* now though, I should probably go for something that will be practical. I think I'll wait till I actually see my textbooks and go from there. :)

get the wheels, just make sure it's adult size, not one of the small ones for the kids or the handle will be to low. i bought mine when i started a&p, we had 3 books we had to bring every day, not counting my big folder.

i think i would have had to drop if i had to carry all the nursing books. we usually needed at least 2 of the big books every day.

see my post under "book list":o

last year i used my car also, would only carry the books that i needed and then would go to my car and exchange books for the next class, it worked out really well.

a&p books were the heaviest... so glad those classes are over.

will get my first nursing books this coming week, really anxious to look them over ahead of time.
