Well. I'm currently a student. I'm studying at the university. I'm taking a course in computer science. I like it a lot. It's interesting. I'm in my second year now. So I have, you know, a couple more years to go. Before I finish my degree. Before I started university, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. But now. I think I made the right choice. I enjoy the subjects, the programming. Everything is, you know, quite challenging, but also rewarding. Sometimes it's difficult, and I have to study a lot. But. I'm learning a lot of new things. And it's good. I spend most of my time on campus, in the library, or in the computer labs. And sometimes I meet my friends. We usually study together. Or we just, you know, have a coffee and chat. It's a good way to relax after a long day of studying. So yeah, that's what I'm doing at the moment. I'm a student.

Well, currently I'm a student: I'm studying for my master's degree in engineering. It's been quite a journey so far. Before this, I was actually working full-time for a couple of years. I was a software developer. It was a pretty demanding job, to be honest, you know, long hours and lots of pressure. But I learned a lot. I decided to go back to school because I wanted to specialize in a specific area, and, frankly, I wanted a change of pace. The student life is much more relaxed, though I still find myself pretty busy with assignments and projects. I do miss having a regular salary, but I'm enjoying the challenge of learning new things and expanding my knowledge base. Plus, I have a lot more free time to pursue my hobbies, which is a real bonus. So, yeah, I'm a student now, but I've been on both sides of the fence, if you know what I mean.

Well, that's a straightforward question: I'm currently working full-time. I've been employed at a tech startup for the past three years, and it's been quite an experience. Before that, I was a student, so I've seen both sides of the coin, so to speak. The startup environment is incredibly dynamic; every day presents new challenges, and I'm constantly learning and adapting. It's a far cry from the structured routine of university, but in many ways, it's equally rewarding. I relish the opportunity to collaborate with a diverse team of professionals, each bringing their unique perspectives to the table. We're all striving towards common goals, and there's a real sense of camaraderie. The work is demanding, but I find it stimulating, and it gives me a great sense of accomplishment. I've always been someone who enjoys being busy, and this role certainly keeps me on my toes. Plus, the rapid pace of the tech industry means there's always something new to get to grips with. It's an amazing experience, and I feel like I'm learning at an exponential rate, which is fantastic for my career development. I'm genuinely enjoying this phase of my life.
