Reply to comment by liovantirealm7177 in [OC] I reached my reading objective for 2022 before the end of year, so I did a visualization of my reading stats by MrMelodica
It was fully done in Excel, yes. I explained how I did it in another response, which I post below:
I followed a simple process for making the vizualization. I had all the information about the books that I read on one Excel sheet. This was: book name, author, publishing year, publisher, language, number of pages. I would update this sheet regularly as the year passed. Then, I had one sheet where all the data was aggregated. Finally, on a third sheet, I built all the graphs and summaries mostly based on the aggregated data. I then just took a screenshot of that sheet.

Everything was done with the visualizations that are already built in Excel. For the per country, I used the "Maps" graph, and for the per publisher I used the "Treemap" graph. Then it was a bit of tinkering to get the visualizations to look like I wanted them to.

There is a reason it's constantly the number one brown drink in a market of 100 brown drinks that taste roughly the same. It's the prestige of being on the global stage, but to keep that rep you just gotta keep on being in front of the world like this.

That's a big bummer... I'm lucky that the Amazon from Spain carries a lot of French books, otherwise, I'd be in a similar situation. I'd love to learn Spanish at a certain point, but for now, I want to keep improving my French!
I usually stick to more "literary" works, but I read a lot of sci fi this year. I wanted to get a good overview of the genre by reading a lot of the classics. The fact there's a collection like the "S.F. Masterworks" really helped in the process, a lot of the filtering was already done. I really recommend you check their books, if you're interested in the genre.

You could say the same thing for all teachers. All of them are severely underpaid, scrutinized very closely, and had to complete at least 7 years of post secondary education. I have a lot of respect for them as they all know this going into their major, yet somehow there are teachers who are resentful of this fact, and a few who don't belong in the education system... Even though they knew it would be crummy pay and unpaid overtime hours.

Interestingly, she used to cover my student debt repayment when my expenses overshoot. We lived together for most of the year - so the costs were split. I recently moved to France for work.

But I would like to see the impact of tsunami waves in case of oceanic touchdown.
Can you made it possible???

She's a working student. Our visa arrangements allow us to work for 20hrs/ week. Given inflation and rising heating costs - I am proud of whatever she is saving.

Or a bus, to be honest. Bus-fares are really cheap. When I did not have a family, I traveled all over Europe by bus. So cheap.

Standard reply from US americans. Imagine living in an economy where you think women in western countries can't have a good economy without a man providing for her. Get real.

Plan ahead. Spend loads of time on preparation.
Buying for more people means buying in bulk, where you would throw that away with fewer people.
The more thrifty people around us plan out their meals for a month, to make sure they can buy in bulk deals, and freeze meals/products for the end of the month. They will use the ingredients of every dish and combine them into other dishes with different spices/herbs/flavors to create some interest. The variety within the season is sometimes a little lacking, but overall it's still balanced over all the seasons.
Frozen seems to be a good choice left or right. Flash-frozen meats, seafood, fish, fruits, and vegetables are considered close to fresh, but usually cheaper. If you have the space at home to store leftovers, so you can buy in bulk.

Her uni schedule is pretty jam-packed. She goes to restaurants, which are accounted as food. In terms of going out - most of her travel was relatively free (9 Euro ticket)

It's been only the case in the last two-three years. Most films prior to 2020 were not available for streaming when they were released.
You can't say the data is flawed based on this argument alone.
