Day 1 of internship and Online concert

The first day of my internship went alright.. I was given two articles about functional foods definitions and the necessity of consolidating them.  My supervisor and I had a fruitful discussion and got some ideas on my potential projects.

Half a day every day is quite a time commitment.  I'm detemined to get most out of this intense opportunity! 

I enjoyed so much watching my favorite artists' livestream concert so much!

Infographics - Week 2 Charts!

Learning to make infographics.
I made this chart as an assignment for Week 2.  Excel can make very good charts too.  I'll try to stick with Excel and other free platforms cos I don't have the trial version of Adobe Illustrator anymore..  

And these numbers are true!  Food loss includes natural shrinkage, but the majority of food loss is "Wasted (uneaten) food" mainly produced at home.

Heatwave!

It's been so hot every day with the temperature reaching over 90F.  It's rare that similar weather pattern continues this long.  Global warming is real...

I need to do the laundry more often now!

Morning bike ride

With daytime highs going over 90s, the only way to exercise is to get up early and hop on a bike!
