What is the difference between "such fun" and "so fun"?
The difference between "such fun" and "so fun" is that "such fun" is grammatically correct, and "so fun" is not. While "so fun" is not grammatically correct, it is more common for native English speakers to say than "such fun". The reason "so fun" is not grammatically correct is because "so" is an adverb and "fun" is a noun, and adverbs can't modify nouns.

What do you normally write in the "skill/interests" section?
The skills and interests section in your resume basically relates to your professional skills and interests! For example, if you are a computer programmer, you can list the programming languages you are familiar with, the types of programming you can do, and the types of associations or clubs you are a part of. It's also a chance to list your personal interests too! Some companies like to see the types of hobbies or personal interests you have, to see if you are a good fit with their company culture. Ex: Marketing resume - marketing, communications, design, and project management skills. Ex: Business analyst resume - data analysis, statistics, business management, and accounting skills.

What's the difference between "stature" and "height"?
Great question. The word "stature" has two different but related meanings. It can be used to talk about a person's "height", size of body or growth, in which case the two words would be interchangeable. Stature can also be used to talk about the high level of respect people have for someone based on their achievements. Ex: My grandmother is short but she has great stature, in her community. Ex: His stature is quite small but he's still growing.

Why "sights" is used as a plural with "s"? Does it have different meaning from just "sight"?
The word "sight" when meaning a landmark or location of something to see, can be countable. So the plural form of the word "sight" in this context is "sights" and it is grammatically correct to say this. Ex: We saw so many unique sights on our trip. Ex: What sights do you want to see in New York?
