Survival Kit
Most of the girls walk around with a purse, and guys with a wallet and it serves the same purpose. But we have a lot more stuff in our purse than in a guy’s wallet. When a guy can survive with a wallet why do we need a purse and all the things in that purse?
Most of the guys will have a wallet that has some cash, few credit cards, few receipts. But, in their pockets they also have cell phones (some wear it on their belt -- uggh), keys, Chap Stick and some more receipts.
But a girls’ purse is more like a survival kit. Here are all the things in my purse and the reason why I carry it.
Wallet - Mainly has cash, credit cards.
Hair Brush - I have long hair and as I leave it open, needs to be brushed frequently.
Lip gloss/chap stick - Lips get really dry here regardless of the season.
Powder-Cover girl powder.
Pocket tissue - Small pack of pocket tissue, just in case I get a runny nose or cry for some reason.
Dental Floss - Hate food getting stuck in my teeth after eating out.
Gum - A pack of Extra sugar free gum.
Lotion - Small tube of Nivea lotion. Hands get dry a lot.
Pen - Have like 2-3 pens and don't know why but I have a pencil too
Check book - I carry this all the time just in case I'm at a place that only takes check. These kinds of places are getting extinct these days.
Cell phone - Don't we all have this
Keys - Another thing that we all have
Medicine - I have Ibuprofen and Benadryl with me always just in case a headache or allergy hits me.
So a purse for us girls is a survival kit. If we get stranded anywhere we will have things to last us for a day.
Like most girls even I get teased about carrying my purse with all these things everywhere. But when Shekar sneezes turns over to me and ask do you have a tissue? And I gladly open my purse give him a tissue and ask “Is it the allergies I have Benadryl?”

Awesome read!!
Survival kit is an apt term:)
I have the same things in purse..except for pens..Dont know why, I always lose them. I will find one everywhere but for my purse!
hey..nice post...
an american saying goes like "it is considered indecent to ask a lady her age and what is in her purse?"
but precisely if girls are carrying the "survival kit"..why should men bother...
no wonder single guys like me are finding it hard to "survive"...probably until we find someone to rescue us with her "survival kit"

I think give or take few items most of us will have the same items in our purse. U have no pens? How do you survive with out that? U probably have a backpack when u go to lab and stuff that has a pen.

Us girls are very sensitive about our purses so when a girl misplaces her purse and starts panicking she has all the reasons. Most of us don't like anyone opening our purse. Shekar to this day hasn't opened by purse, his reason being there is so much stuff in there that it will take hours to dig around and find what he wants so he just hands me my purse anytime he needs anything.
i dont even use a wallet hehe !
neither do i have a cell phone or credit card!
just my twenty rupees to last a whole day!
It feels great to be a kid!!!!!!!!!
Hi,
One thing I hate about a woman's purse is the way they keep money in it. They fold any note 3 times, making a lot of crease on it.
Another thing which puzzles me is that girls have a very small purse, and u r forced to fold the note so many times to keep the note in the purse.
hehe..good observation Arun! Too badm you sneaked into a lady's purse:p..jus kidding
hey thanu

Once a month is cleaning day for my purse. I empty it and get rid of all useless junk(receipts), refill my medicine and then I'm set for the next month.

Welcome to my blog.
Purse is small can not fit a mattress. Quit making fun of us, next time u sneeze and have no tissue, u will realize hey carrying a purse around is not that badof an idea.
WOW ! so many medicine names!!
are you ladies doctors or medicine students or something:-/
$kick
Just regular people. If the girl is a nurse or doctor the number of medicine she carries ard increases.
survival kit !!! its more like carrying a small version of home :)
and the comment about carrying bag in dance club. yeah, seeing a girl in the club floor dancing and at the same time tugging at their bag, is really hilarious experience :)
