Another friend that I enjoy talking with is an online friend. I think it has been five years since I first met him. We are still talking to each other so far. This person, I don’t know much about them because it’s an online friendship. They don’t want to spill the beans for the information. That’s okay. I knew him through gaming. I used to play this game called Cookie Run Kingdom. We had fun together. It’s a strategic game. We both love making compositions and using our critical thinking and solving skills into these games. That was back in 2018. But now we don’t play that game anymore. We have both matured. We talk about life and issues outside rather than games back then. Talking to this person or my friend is very fun. I think that. While we are not on the same page when it comes to our life and our careers, we do have the same mind when it comes to thinking and debating issues. It’s just really fun when we talk to them. That’s an element of surprise when talking to him.
