I really miss all the wonderful time during my PhD where I had the endless luxury to write and write. Papers that I wrote, though they are about my PhD data collections, were actually a series of stories put together which portrays my research journey since 2011. Alhamdulillah I am currently supervising a few mini-projects on human-robot interaction (HRI) to kick-start my research story after PhD. HRI really is a phenomenal research theme. Hope I can inspire more researchers to venture into this area.
