The building that I work in… has to be one of the creepiest buildings in the world at night.
There are corridors popping out from every corner and every side, and the hallways go on for miles. It doesn’t help that the building is not as bustling as it used to be, thanks to many labs migrating to newer buildings.
Even though you need to have card access to enter the building past 7pm, and I’m sitting in my locked lab, I am still scared. I hate leaving the sanctity of my lab… even if it’s just to run across the hall to the tissue culture room, or a couple of doors down the cold room or the bathroom.
Being in lab at night by myself is so lonely. I want to talk to people and laugh and be happy while I do my experiments… not sad and scared.
But what can you do? A girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.
And this girl has to do science. At night. All alone…
