Today I'm going to talk about a person who always has strong opinions. This is my university roommate, who is one of the most opinionated people I have ever known. We met three years ago when we were assigned to share a dorm room during our first year of university. Peter always has strong views about everything, whether it's politics, music, or even the best way to clean our dorm room. The reason I think he's so opinionated is that he's incredibly well-read and stays up to date with current events. Moreover, he genuinely cares about making the world a better place. However, I have mixed feelings about him. On the one hand, I admire his passion and how well-informed he is. Our conversations are never boring as he can talk about pretty much anything. But on the other hand, sometimes his strong views can be overwhelming. It can make me feel exhausted trying to keep up with everything he says. But in conclusion, I think making friends with him has helped me to become more informed about everything going on in my life.
