about pursuing a

then, I became a PhD
student

to forget me.
Sigh.

6. She discovered that she loves to
teach. It is her secret, please
don't tell her that I told you.
0 actually I teach, research
and consult about exciting
topics
7. 10in years
She realized that
Work never ends,
however, we have
only several years
to experience life.
Embrace the
unexpected. You
can't control
everything.
Be open to topics
beyond your
specialized
knowledge.
Acceptance and
rejection are not as
important as you
think.
Follow your
intuition. Only you
know what makes
you happy.
8. 10in years
there are things that never changed
Old friends caring
and help.
Love and family
support.
A cup of coffee.
There is nothing
that a cup of good
coffee can't
improve.
