So when I received this topic, the person that springs to my mind immediately was Jo, which is a very dear to my heart. And she is also my university friend. I had a chance to collaborate with her in her final presentation of the course about the history of the Vietnam War. Well, at first, I didn’t think she was a very energetic person at all. She seems very nerdy. But after several discussions about the topic, I feel like she always made their conversations more intriguing and lead to people’s mood during the whole meeting. And that really helps me a lot to calm my anxiety to work with the others as I was not a very, you know, like, a super-better person. But somehow she always tried to find ways to, like, put the gripping pieces together. And the reason why I think she’s a very valuable friend to me is that she always makes the situation better in some certain ways. And whenever I feel like down, I always reach out to her to receive advice in a very amusing and entertaining way. So I really cherish her as a friend. And I believe that if I enforced her relationship with that girl, I would possibly share some kind of, you know, trace that I think of her that I think would be very useful for me. So, yeah.

At first, I didn't think she was a very energetic person at all; she seemed very nerdy. But after several discussions about the topic, I felt like she always made our conversations more intriguing and lifted people's moods during the whole meeting. That really helped me a lot to calm my anxiety about working with others, as I was not a very outgoing person. But somehow, she always tried to find ways to put the gripping pieces together. The reason why I think she's a very valuable friend to me is that she always makes the situation better in certain ways.
