HOW THIS SUBJECT WILL HELP YOU BECOME BETTER AT YOUR CAREER SOMEDAY?

      This subject will indeed help me in my career. I didn't know that when you are applying, it is an advantage to have a personal blog. It is, as what Mrs. Gavile said, an 'Interactive Resume' while Resume is just a Passive Resume.

      I personally hate making blogs because i don't want other people know something about me and my privacy is invaded indirectly. I am a conservative person and i'd rather be a mysterious one to others who don't know me.

      Anyways, if making a blog helps me get a job then maybe i should start liking to post and make blogs myself.
