Today I saw a girl with a smurf t-shirt. It made me think of my first days at school. I had a green school bag with black plastic claw grips. Stitched onto the flap were the Smurfs. The smurfy congregation gathered around Papa Smurf, waiting for him to bestow some elder wisdom upon them. Before I got my bag I'm not sure I had ever heard of the Smurfs let alone watched them on television. I think I may have even asked my mother several times who the little blue people were that decorated my bag. I'm sure her heart sank.
The plastic clamps were too difficult for me to open; although I did succeed once or twice in unfastening the clamps and only mildly injuring myself. I often had to request the help of an older student or someone with less delicate fingers.
