Well, I usually enjoy talking with my friends, and one of my best friends is Liu, so I’d like to talk about him. Right now, we are starting in the same life, under the same professor. We often discuss our research, including ideas, papers, feedback from editors and reviewers, and experiments. Many of his ideas are very innovative and valuable, which keeps our research progressing smoothly. Besides work, we also chat about our hobbies and interests, like sports, movies, video games, and so on, which I find really enjoyable. Since we are graduating next year, we have been discussing career plans, the job market, industry chains, and even social topics, like insurance and healthcare. His insights are always helpful and give me a fresh-pressed perspective. Overall, I feel he is not only my best friend, but also a great source of motivation and encouragement in my life.
