Favourite lab song: Katy Perry T.G.I.F, because I think she is the most talented singer evahhh ahum
Favourite Hot beverage: Coffee of course, because if there would be a god she/he would drink it. Furthermore if you drink enough of it you can get in some strange hallucinating state, in which failed transformations suddenly look positive .
Favourite Lab Job: Pouring LB agar plates, because they smell really good. Especially when you have a small hangover.
Favourite Lab anecdote: Ruben bitching half an hour on you that you mislabelled some eppendorfs tubes. However he forgot to check the lab journal and what turned out: he was the only person working in the lab that day.
Favourite Lab apparatus: The UV tray, because even working the whole summer in a dark lab without natural lighting it is still possible to get a tan.
If you would need to pick a pirate attribute what would it be? Without a doubt a wooden leg. First of all it would look bad ass awesome. Secondly, it can have hidden compartments where you could store lab supplies, such as, cryovials or your favourite marker because they always get stolen by other people.
