CSS learning experience

It's hilariously happy that finally I got majority of my website updated by using
CSS!!!
When I am very happy, I sometimes use some words inappropriately on purpose to show my happiness, just like when I call somebody names, it doesn't mean I despise them. I don't know how many of my friends get this when I call many of them as "jiahuo" - meaning fellow but in bad sense. Actually in my dictionary, it shows my closeness to that person. Not only because I don't have to care too much about how I call them or how I express my feelings and opinions, they won't judge me by those trivial things.
This is the result after I read one tutorial book <<More Eric Meyer On CSS>> and the tutorial of CSS on w3schools website and one fireworks 3 manual book. I know the website is still not perfect, not as fancy as many websites, but much better than my previous version. I guess I have never been a smart person. I often do a complete study for just a small project, which many of my friends think is not worthwhile. I somehow have generated this habit when I was a teenager if not even younger. Reasons for this in my opinions are: first, if you have better view of something, you know where to look for answers when problem do occur, you actually save time by spending time to do a complete study instead of picking pieces here and there; second, by going through more things, especially study cases, we are inspired by others' ideas, open our mind to see what are achievable, and how far it can go. No matter where and when, imagination often plays an important role in our life. Third thing is that, when you do one thing, you should go deep and make it a skill or something you are good at, otherwise, it's a waste of your life. Think about when others ask you this question:"do you know...?", your answer is like this: "Oh, I had some experience, but I probably forgot all of them." I don't mean you can't forget, but things that are to be forgotten should be selective. Things that are essential should never be forgotten.
I hope that my current website looks more professional than before, which is the whole purpose of redesign and rewriting of it. I could go back and spend more time on my research! :)
