"It's a posh university. We used to solve our laboratories on university iMacs, view atoms at their smallest scales with VR headsets, play FIFA 21 on PlayStation 5 and Fortnite during breaks, and do a variety of other things. It should be noted that all of these efforts were carried out by my university. I am thankful to Google, my friends, People who believed in me, my family, and, most especially, my mother and late father."
