Curriculum Vitae


Just wanted share what I learned in the morning:

I thought a CV is a cover letter, just found out that a CV is comparable to a resume, but more elaborate.
CV stands for curriculum vitae, it provides a person's experiences and qualifications.

In the United Kingdom, a CV is short, 2 pages max. It includes personal and professional information.
In the United States and Canada, a CV is used as a replacement of a resume in the academic circles and the medical field.

Microsoft Excel 2007 For Dummies


I finished this book in a day. If you don't know anything about excel, then it's a good start. 
 It has all the basics.
For me, it's more of a review. I didn't really learn anything new except some information on pivot tables.
The book could have more snapshots and pictures, that's only my preference.

Strawberry Pineapple Smoothie




Strawberry pineapple smoothie mixed with whey protein.
It taste kind of weird, maybe it's the flavor of the protein.
But it's a healthy drink, skipping the protein powder will make it taste better.
