Microsoft Word Document and Reflection

Welcome to Rio De Janiero

Rio de Janeiro, the marvelous city, dramatically set between rainforest clad cliffs and the sea is always awash with joyful existence. Locals love Rio calling it "cidade maravilhosa" and referring to themselves as Cariocas for being part of what is undoubtedly the world's most beautiful city setting. One of the world's densest cities, it never sleeps and it is easy to get around day or night. Cariocas are friendly folks who always have time for the sensual pleasures of good living and the rhythm of samba.

CI TY GUI DE

Two of the world's most famous beaches, Ipanema and Copacabana, anchor Rio's 45 miles of white sand beaches. All visitors from the international jet set to the budget traveler eventually must experience the urban beach and cafe culture of Rio which sets the soulful pace for Rio's many vigorous personalities and their lusty love of life. Expect the unexpected in this nearly five hundred year old City (founded 1502) but be spontaneous if you wish to experience the festival of song, color and joy around you. Primeval splendor encourages a youthful approach to city living where colors are richer, people are beautiful and tomorrow's just another day. Where to Eat

I have learned an extensive amount of knowledge in Information Processing that I can use in my every day activities as well as in the my career choice.

Knowing how to properly prepare documents, spreadsheets, slides, tables and forms, greatly increases my ability to present to the viewer exactly what I am trying to convey in a clear, professional manner.

In my career, I will be able to feel confident using various software programs with speed and accuracy, and to stay organized with the tools that I am now learning. I have already noticed a huge difference in the quality of appearance and content in the projects that I have embarked on since last September.

As I look back on previous projects that I have done, I can see that I am increasingly progressing, and I am always eager to improve a style that I think people would appreciate.
