Royal Wedding

Well, everybody is talking about the UK Royal Wedding that happened today at 4 o'clock in the morning in our time here in Kentucky. It was showed live on TV until almost all day they are talking about it. The big wedding of the year! If you didn't hear about it then will check it on google if I can share more to you about the wonderful wedding that they are talking about.
On Friday, 29 April 2011, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge married Catherine Middleton at Westminster Abbey, London at 11:00 am BST (UTC+1). William, who is second in the line of succession to Queen Elizabeth II, first met Middleton in 2001, while both were students at the University of St Andrews. Their engagement, which began on 20 October 2010, was announced on 16 November 2010.

The build up to the wedding and the occasion itself attracted much media attention, with the service broadcast live around the world, and with it being compared and contrasted in many ways to the last high profile British royal wedding in the United Kingdom, the 1981 marriage of William's parents, Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer. It was watched by a global television audience of over 2 billion.[1][2] Much of the attention focused on Middleton's status as a commoner (i.e. not of royal blood or a part of the aristocracy) and such marrying into royalty. Hours before the service, William was granted the titles of the Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn, and Baron Carrickfergus by the Queen. Upon her marriage, Middleton therefore became Her Royal Highness Princess William Arthur Philip Louis, Duchess of Cambridge, Countess of Strathearn, Baroness Carrickfergus, but is not styled as 'Princess Catherine'.

Exciting day!

First of all, I am hoping everyone is having a blessed and peaceful Good Friday. As for my day was long too but still a blessed day with my husband. Today is my first visit to the doctor’s clinic for my pregnancy. As first visit goes I filled out information sheets and had counseling with the nurse today about my pregnancy. I was asked for a urine sample, she said they would do that every now and then visit to test for some infections. I also did some blood test for HIV and other stuff including iron test and it turns our good for that. And she made my second appointment on May 2 and she said at this time I will meet my doctor and will undergo series of test about my pregnancy. When we got home I am surprised to received a big box of Filipino foods that I ordered online the other day. I was so excited while my husband was opening it! I got different kind of food that I crave and miss! My day was long but I enjoyed it! I hope everyone to have a great Lenten season and a great Easter Sunday in advance.

Palm Sunday

Here in the State we started our day by going to church today and church server gave each of us a stick of palm. The priest blessed it with holy water before the mass starts. In many Christian churches, Palm Sunday is marked by the distribution of palm leaves (often tied into crosses) to the assembled worshipers. The difficulty of procuring palms for that day's ceremonies in unfavorable climates for palms led to the substitution of boughs of box, yew, willow or other native trees. The Sunday was often designated by the names of these trees, as Yew Sunday or by the general term Branch Sunday.


Back in the In the Philippines, there are some places where a re-enactment of Jesus' triumphal entry occurs. The Catholic priest rides a horse and is surrounded by the congregation, bearing palms. Sometimes women spread large cloths or aprons along the procession route.

Palm branches, called palaspas, are taken home after being blessed in the Mass and are hung beside, on or above doorways and windows in front of their house. Although the real objective of placing the leaves in front of houses is to welcome Jesus Christ, some Filipinos say that the palm leaves turn away evil spirits. Happy Sunday everyone and more blessing to all of us.
