At times like these, plagiarism is always an option!
Have you tried searching through other peoples CV's online, and adapting someone elses attention grabbing profile that ticks all your boxes?
All the best.I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0 -

Morning
Well I got 90% of my tasks done. The only thing that got left was the CV.( I know, I know).
I have some personal sad family news. Knew it was coming, my dear Grandmother is not very well at all. I have been so lucky to have her for so long, been a consistent supportive rock in my life. My wonderful Mum has been supporting me and and her own Mother with an energy I can only wonder at over the last 18 months.
Just taking things day by day from here. Got to be there for my Mum.DC.

90% is an A++ well done.
Thinking of you as you go through this tough time. I'm sure you'll provide your lovely mum with the support she needs, just remember to take care of yourself too, be kind to yourself, and keep reminding yourself of just how far you've come.I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0
