Everyday Carry 2025

By Lars Guo

Published: August 20, 2025



Opening Message

Hi Folks! This is my 2025 update on what I carry every day. Just to be clear—I’m not sponsored by anyone. Everything here was either purchased by me or gifted by friends or family, but none came from the companies that make these products. I just wanted to share what’s been useful to me, and I hope you enjoy it!



Sling

This is the vessel where I keep everything I carry. I picked it up at the Coca-Cola store in Orlando, Florida while traveling. It’s a great fit, well-made, and surprisingly durable. After months of daily use, it still shows no wear and tear. Compact yet roomy, it holds more than it looks like it should. I also like that the Coke logo is subtle rather than flashy.



Samsung FE Buds

These are my go-to earbuds for private calls. They’re noise-canceling, come with a solid microphone, and help me avoid disturbing others. They’ve been especially useful during work and travel. I’ve written more about them in a separate blog post if you’d like to dive deeper.



Oilsky M303 Pro MP3 Players

These MP3 players are my secret weapon for language learning. I load them with ebooks, podcasts, and videos in Japanese, Spanish, and German. Because they’re lightweight and portable, I can study on the go. I use them often and definitely find them worthwhile.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Phone

This is my everyday phone for calls, messages, and everything in between. I don’t feel the need to upgrade anytime soon because it does everything I need. I like its size, reliability, and the user-friendly Samsung interface.



Keys

Simple but essential. They get me into my house and start my car. I always keep a backup set just in case—because you never know when you’ll need it.



ChapStick

A small but mighty essential. It keeps my lips moisturized and comfortable throughout the day. Easy to carry, always useful.



Wallet

Instead of a traditional wallet, I use a camera case. It fits my cards, cash, and even a key. Best of all, I can hang it around my neck for convenience and peace of mind.



Earbud Converter

This tiny adapter lets me use wired earbuds when my wireless ones aren’t an option. It’s inexpensive, versatile, and prevents waste by keeping perfectly good wired earbuds useful. A small item, but handy in rare situations.



Mouth Guard Case

Since I use liners, I need a safe place to store them whenever I eat or drink anything besides plain water. This case keeps them secure, prevents accidental loss, and makes cleaning more manageable. It’s a small but necessary part of my routine.



AI Language Translator

Some of my coworkers speak little to no English, so this device helps bridge the communication gap at work. It’s also useful in emergencies, especially when Google Translate isn’t accessible or when I can’t use my phone. While it’s the least-used item on my list, it’s reassuring to have it with me.



Conclusion

That wraps up my 2025 everyday carry! Thanks for reading—I hope you found this update interesting. Stay safe, happy, and healthy, and I look forward to sharing more in my next blog. Have a great day!
