Ah, I know the feeling. Whenever I went to school without a backpack, whether I was just going on a field trip and didn't need one, or if it was finals or mid-terms and nobody had them, I felt weird. I think it's most likely because I was so use to carrying one around every day, it was an odd feeling not to have carry one...
But yeah, when you're the only person around school that isn't wearing a backpack, I think it's normal that you would feel weird, or feel dumb- I know I did, so you're totally normal.
It is all about getting used to things. You're used to wearing the backpack. But don't worry: you can also get used to not wearing it, it's all a matter of time.

You should consider carrying a briefcase. They are very classy :)
