I like that I'm small, but fit a lot of things, and that I'm pretty

Dislikes

I don't like that the zipper broke. Even though it wasn't my fault, it was my owner’s fault.

Fun Fact

I came from a crippling shopping addiction from my owners grandma. It was hers when she was young. So, I've been alive for a long time.

Audio Story

Statement

I have lived through many generations, and I have seen lots of things and I have a lot of life experience and I am not a quitter. I've been through a lot, broken zipper but still going strong. And I'm sustainable because it has lived through one person's life cycle and it's now on its second owner, and it was probably bought at a local store because my old owner loved to support local businesses. And I have a sob story which makes me more, I don't know, relatable. I like that.
