@Steemsausage nominated me for the #whatsinmybag challenge by ramengirl@ramengirl - 4 days ago.

The problem is, I technically don't own a handbag. I mean I do but I don't use it. So instead, I decided to take some pictures of the content of my most beloved travel companion: My backpack.

So let's start with what's in the sides!

Nothing too fancy, honestly. A water bottle and an umbrella. Although the umbrella reminds me of my first semester at university, when I left the cafeteria with two other students and it was raining. The other German and me both pulled out our umbrellas, while the Spanish student stared at us and got soaked.

"Did you know it would rain?" She asked. We just told her that, in Germany, you should always have an umbrella with you.

Next compartment, the tiny one!

My glasses (which make me look super professional, but I only need them when I'm staring at the computer all day. So ... always), pack of tissues (it's always flu season for me), Bluetooth headphones, a 200 mg Ibuprofen for unexpected migraines (I'm super sensitive to pain meds), a lighter (most biologists don't smoke but we always need fire for something else), ear plugs in a fancy net-pocket and my two cents.

Next compartment!

Workout clothes, because I go to the gym before lab, my beloved tablet PC which I use more for drawing than the scientific stuff I promised my mom, the charger for it, a hairbrush, writing pad and not one but two pens, because you never know when one might break.

And the last compartment contains ... not much actually, just the rest of my workout stuff.
Shampoo and shower gel in the plastic bag, together with the towel. Another towel for inside the gym, a pair of lifting gloves and a pair of "soft" shoes (I have no idea what they're called in English).

Now, please don't ask me to empty my pockets because I think there will be about the same amount of stuff again, just smaller. I tend to wear skinny men's jeans because the pockets in women's jeans are a disgrace.


I am nominating agnikana@agnikana !
