My class fellow, she is the most interesting person in my opinion. I met her during my bachelor’s degree on the very first day of our degree. She is directionally challenged, so she and her roommate had gone out of the way to find someone else from the same department that she could follow that person to the classes and I was that person. So I took her to classes every day for the five years of our degree. The reason that we became friends was because my maternal grandparents lived where her paternal Grandparent sleep and her paternal grandparents lived there my maternal grandparents lived. So we had spent a lot of times visiting the same places so we had a lot of common things to talk about. She’s very extrovert and I am an introvert so whenever I needed help communicating with other close fellows I would ask her help and she never shied away from giving it to me. We have talked about everything in our lives. I think she is the person who knows the most about me because I share every little thing with her and she also shares a lot of things with me. She trusts me with her deep secrets and it is very beautiful actually and she knows that I was keep these secrets. She’s very interesting to me because as an introvert and kind of lacking I kind of lack empathy. But this class fellow of mine she’s so empathetic she would just look at a person’s face and she can know what the person is feeling like and I will always ask her how do you do that and she’ll be like it is so easy you just have to look at their faces

My class fellow is the most interesting person, in my opinion. I met her during my bachelor's degree on the very first day of our program. She is directionally challenged, so she and her roommate went out of their way to find someone else from the same department that she could follow to classes, and I was that person. I took her to classes every day for the five years of our degree. The reason we became friends was that my maternal grandparents lived where her paternal grandparents lived. We spent a lot of time visiting the same places, so we had many common things to talk about. She's very extroverted, and I am an introvert, so whenever I needed help communicating with other classmates, I would ask for her help, and she never shied away from giving it to me. We talked about everything in our lives. I think she is the person who knows the most about me because I share every little thing with her, and she also shares a lot with me. She trusts me with her deep secrets, and it is very beautiful, actually, and she knows that I will keep these secrets. She's very interesting to me because, as an introvert, I kind of lack empathy. But this class fellow of mine is so empathetic; she can just look at a person's face and know what the person is feeling. I always ask her how she does that, and she'll say, 'It is so easy; you just have to look at their faces.'
