House blessing - House of Transfiguration

Last Saturday, we celebrated a house blessing for our new love nest, led by Fr. Benedict, a friend of my husband from NTU. We invited our family and close friends for this intimate occasion. The day began with the house blessing, followed by a rosary prayer and a thanksgiving Mass. We concluded the celebration with a wonderful meal and also honored the birthdays of our October babies.

May it become a sanctuary filled with love, peace, and joy for our family.

Hello Optimistic October !

I'm starting this month with an optimistic and positive attitude by attending a resume crafting workshop organized by E2i.

Identify and articulate transferable skills, job-related skills, and self-management skills. Understand the job specifications and descriptions, focusing on key terms. Keep your resume simple and relevant to the job description. Leverage AI and social media (LinkedIn, personal websites, YouTube) to enhance your profile and portfolio. I’m excited to try this new approach and plan to apply to three job openings to see how it works!
