Hobbies
Besides having uni life, I like to hang out with my friends sometimes and have fun together. I also love to read comics and novels, watch movies and TV shows, especially ones that have genres of comedy and romance. I am simply a cheerful person and don't get mad easily. In fact, I am patient in teaching students if they take long time to understand the materials. :D
