My Fall 2022 Semester

This semester was kinda crazy. Long story short, I received a lot of help and somehow made through it.

School was hard, taking lectures about missing data along with causal inference was like the trip on a roller coaster. Materials are very interesting but also challenging. Even though my own research projects are not about missing data, lectures, homework and exams are very helpful in a fundamental way. And it also broadened my mind. Research was fine, I was carried by my advisers as usual. The second project went in a different way from the beginning. I do not know how far it will go. After 4 years, I finally had one meeting when I almost failed to control my emotion and cry. But all are worth it. Work ended up well, thanks to my manager. I realized how much I learned from my manager as I can present my work in a much better way now. When I looked back to what happened during this semester, I feel grateful for myself as I worked hard. It was a fulfilled semester I would say. Maybe I have been staying in my comfort zone too long. Keep going, no matter what is waiting for in the near future.
