After long time wandering, I finally started to work. The job is not particularly interesting, nor is the salary satisfying. But so far I am happy with what I’ve got so far.

I am always passionate about many things. Colleagues asked me what I do after work. I do not know what to answer. There is no such thing as “after work”. Not that I mean I am a workaholic, but working on different things is equally fun.

So after working hour…
French. I am fascinated by French culture and language. Even though I do not have much time, I still manage to learn a little bit each day. I am also crazy about French musicals, watched “Romeo et Juliette” many times already without subtitle. Maybe the best way to feel the beauty of musical is not to understand everything, but try to pull up all the emotions. And that is where the beauty lies.

Web design. I have to admit I am not really a web designer. I have seen so many fabulous designs from the internet. What’s more, there are Front Engineers, I have no idea what’s left for me to entitle myself. A few people asked me to design their website already. I charged small amounts of fees. The day before yesterday, one former colleague who used to be the sales department manager called me. I sent him some links of the websites I have done, he is astonished and asked me to do his company website (he is preparing to start his own legal translation company now). At last, I told him that I can do the website and do not want to copy anyone else’s website and he wanted to pay me double the price I asked for.

Being honest and sincere is very important. You can steal something easily, but you will never be able to create it. What I learned for web design is that I can try to improve myself to the great designer’s standard, but I can never copy the other’s code without knowing how it works, nor will I use other people’s template.

I am currently working on 4 web design projects. Hopefully next month I can get financially independent so I do not have to spend any more money from my parents. It is kind of hard though, because I suck at personal communication. Even when I’ve done some work for other people, I still feel embarrassed to ask for money.. Alas.. Money is the last thing I want to talk about.

也许是懒得太久，昨晚一瞬间就决定要做个什么东西出来弥补慢性心情衰弱浪费掉的时间 … 半天过去了，看看结果还算将就。。。有感而发，写几点感受吧。。

１． 英文简历如何写

前前后后算起来也咨询过好些人，原则上我觉得只要写清楚就好了。我的简历写的东西太多，让人有些眼花缭乱。。。但一般如果我如果要发到某个公司的特定职位的话，我还是会改一改。

照片很重要，去外企一般直接把照片放到第一页右上角好些，视觉记忆总是要强些。另外照片最好专业一点。。我也打算改天换正装重新照一张，那样才能给人一种 Professional 的感觉。

格式上不要太花，特别是不要用一种以上的项目符号。

拼写是一定要检查的，标点很重要，还好 Word 一般的标点错误基本都能发现。

好几个人看了我的自我评价都觉得写得不错。。如果大家想 ctrl + c, 我也没意见，当然如果有更好的建议，敬请指教。

Cover letter 是求职附信，有些企业招聘会直接要求，但大企业不会提，应该是觉得那是必然的。

Reference Letter 是推荐信，如果哪天我想去找了，我可能也还是会去准备一下。别人的赞美往往更有力一些。有时间我也会往自己的在线简历上加点 Testimonial.

我找了一个简单的例子,可以下载 下来参考。

２． 在线简历

看过好多设计师的网站，不能说个个都好，但大多的设计师至少会请个技术高手把平台兼容等种种技术问题给解决了。我在做的时候多少有些望尘莫及的感觉，一是自己没作品，二是技术上也不怎么样，只能摸着石头过河了。

不过现在专门提供给设计师制作简历的网站也很多， http://www.krop.com/ 是我最近才发现的一个，不但做出来界面漂亮，而且可以绑定域名。
