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. <br />
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.<br />
<br />
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'.<br />

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.</div>MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-86669331035349303292011-04-17T21:39:00.000-04:002011-04-17T21:39:15.341-04:00Palm SundayHere 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.<br />
<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-55713287221523759852011-04-14T21:13:00.002-04:002011-04-14T21:13:59.075-04:00Life Update<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">Wow! It’s been a long time since I haven’t check on this page! It’s over two months already and I am sorry for staying away and not updating the page.

Well, I need have a lot of news to tell you, I still doing good in my nail business and as of this month my earnings keeps getting higher that means it’s catching up. Though some week it gets so slow that I got bored waiting for someone to walk-in the shop’s door but then the next day it gets better again! And before I forgot to tell you guys, I got the great news ever! I’m more than two months pregnant now! Actually today it’s exactly my 10 weeks! This is our first baby and we are really excited! We’re hoping for a baby girl but it really doesn’t matter as long as he or she is healthy. I am still having the “morning sickness”, and it’s not easy! I got so sick in my stomach almost everyday and sometimes in the whole day. I know some mothers know how it feels. It is so hard for me when I am working because I don’t to throw up at work! Well, I am hoping it gets better next month coz I will be done my first trimester. So wish me luck and some prayers!

I am still in the process of building up my nail shop business. And since the first week of January it was a very slow month for me. There's not a lot of client who went to shop to get their nails fix and done. It's depressing but some of the hairdresser in the shop also have their slow days so i am thinking and they also told me that January is really slow for business. It maybe because they spent more on the past holidays, the new year and the Christmas. Some people are waiting to get their taxes paid before spending more their money. This first week of February is getting better, had more customer than the other month and still hoping will continue to be like this. Right now i don't have any so i have time to update my blogsite. I hope you are still waiting for more updates and still checking my blogpage. I really appreciate it.

Well, to everyone who did not read some my past post or I guess I forgot to mention that I opened a nail shop in part of one salon in our small town. Yes! I did it and I am here right now at the salon while I am writing this post. I don't have appointment this time but I am waiting for walk-in clients to come over who wants their nails done. For the past weeks I been doing good, I got clients that called for appointments and also got some walk-ins, so far i'm loving it. Just hoping that everything will get better and that I will get more appointments than what I am having right now. I know I am just new here and I need to build up my business and work for it. With the help of my husband and family and especially the Lord above, I may have a successful business. Will update you more about it soon.

So I check online as usual on my blogsite and facebook account. I also check on some money-making website but I did not have opportunities to post something to make money. But instead I discovered that changes of my page rank on google on my payperpost account. It was on rank 3 last night I checked it and now it is back to zero! I feel bad about it and wonder why it happened to my page. I been posting good awhile now and I think I am getting better on it. I hope that my page rank will go back to what it was and I can get more opportunity again from payperpost or inpostlinks.</div>MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-43997870967561368962010-11-29T19:08:00.002-05:002010-11-29T19:08:35.192-05:00Cyber Monday<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">It is Monday and yeah a Cyber Monday for the people here in the States. And what is the cyber Monday all about? It <span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN;">is a marketing term for the Monday immediately following Black Friday, the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States, created by companies to persuade people to shop online. The term made its debut on November 28, 2005 in a Shop.org press release entitled "'Cyber Monday' Quickly Becoming One of the Biggest Online Shopping Days of the Year".<sup id="cite_ref-.27Cyber_Monday.27_Quickly_Becoming_One_of_the_Biggest_Online_Shopping_Days_of_the_Year_0-0"> </sup>According to the Shop.org/BizRate Research 2005 eHoliday Mood Study, "77 percent of online retailers said that their sales increased substantially last year on the Monday after Thanksgiving, a trend that is driving serious online discounts and promotions on Cyber Monday this year (2005)". In 2006, Shop.org announced<sup id="cite_ref-As_More_Consumers_Shop_from_Work.2C_Retailers_Gear_Up_for_Cyber_Monday_--_CyberMonday.com_Debuts_for_Shoppers_Seeking_Online_Deals_1-0"> </sup>that it launched the CyberMonday.com portal, a one-stop shop for Cyber Monday deals.

Cyber Monday is also used as a marketing term in Canada, the United Kingdom, Portugal and Germany. In these countries, with the exception of Canada, Cyber Monday sales last for eight days, typically from the last Monday in November to the first Monday in December. <em>The meaning is based on wikipedia. </em></span></div>MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-7781132003120157972010-11-29T18:42:00.000-05:002010-11-29T18:42:20.384-05:00Winter for me!The weather today was not so bad. The sunshines this morning and it’s quite warm for the time of the year, but is still cold for me who don’t used to this winter temperature. I also miss the Philippines every time I feel the cold weather in this side of the world. I remember how I complained back in my country on how hot the weather is, I usually bring umbrella when it is almost 12 noon in the day because the sun’s heat hurts my skin. But when I get her I miss the HEAT of the sun on my skin when I was back in Philippines. How I wish the weather were the same here in states. When the sun is out and the weather is warm, it is like you energy is high too and you like to do everything, but when it is cold I feel like I am always tired and wants to also be in bed and take a nap. Back then I usually go with my cousins and friends near the creek at home and do some walking or we do camping with them using our favorite <a href="http://www.campingworld.com/category/camping-tailgating-gear/280">camping gear</a>. It’s so much fun when you like the weather.MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-33488928589822518062010-11-27T22:19:00.002-05:002010-11-27T22:19:34.374-05:00Black FridayI’m home all alone again while watching movies on HD this Saturday night. My husband is playing music out of town tonight and I don’t have the guts to go with him in this very cold night (for him it is not cold yet). So yesterday was the day after Thanksgiving which they called it here a Black Friday. I heard that “Black Friday” online specifically on facebook. Someone mention that she is ready to go shopping on a Black Friday. Well, wondering what it is, I asked my husband about it and he said it is the Friday after Thanksgiving day and it day that stores will have big discounts. So will check what wikipedia will tell us about this Black Friday: <br />
<em>Black Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day in the United States, traditionally the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. Especially popular in the United States, the event is spreading to other nations such as Canada and Australia. On this day, many retailers open very early, often at 4 a.m., or earlier, and offer promotional sales to kick off the shopping season. Black Friday is not actually a holiday, but many employers give their employees the day off, increasing the number of potential shoppers. It has routinely been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005, although news reports, which at that time were inaccurate, have described it as the busiest shopping day of the year for a much longer period of time.</em>MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-15591234171762621592010-11-25T00:57:00.000-05:002010-11-25T00:57:46.982-05:00Thanksgiving Eve<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidfmh8CKzQarsBdSu02AZHjLB3eZNSnG7sUnyM2S_isl2iOCcaRBzEH3YIz1_QIch4z8PJiLMIKMMnRLV-ts936Z42nPk3KNuLWRCgek2rRTyNdOCZ9WJHA7V4ygpwypZpgC8EnByMhyphenhyphen3v/s1600/148870_114168091981739_100001656452075_96027_8291435_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidfmh8CKzQarsBdSu02AZHjLB3eZNSnG7sUnyM2S_isl2iOCcaRBzEH3YIz1_QIch4z8PJiLMIKMMnRLV-ts936Z42nPk3KNuLWRCgek2rRTyNdOCZ9WJHA7V4ygpwypZpgC8EnByMhyphenhyphen3v/s320/148870_114168091981739_100001656452075_96027_8291435_n.jpg" width="160" /></a></div>It’s almost one o’clock in the morning on Thursday, it is just means that officially Thanksgiving Day is started! So I want to greet you all again a Happy Thanksgiving. Maybe you wonder why I am still online and writing this blog post. We’ll my husband and I don’t usually sleep till like midnight but we usually just laying down in bed while waiting for our eyes to close to sleep. But tonight, I am still awake since I am waiting for my husband to get home from playing music at the near bar in town. Their band plays music for the Thanksgiving Eve and he surely done playing this time but they need to teardown their music equipments and load it up to their van so they can get home. I usually go with them but tonight I did not have the power to go outside. Yeah I say “power”, coz I think I need power to be in the cold weather. It is just the coldest night we been had since we got back from the hot weather in the Philippines. It’s not new to me since I been here the last year’s winter but I think I’m body is still adjusting the cold for the winter! I’m here inside the house and I can still feel the cold from the outside even our heater is on. When I looked outside it’s so foggy too but I just discovered something that our window needs a new <a href="http://www.larsonshutter.com/">shutters</a> and on Black Friday might be the best time to get discount for these things.MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-9593385620532493892010-11-23T22:12:00.000-05:002010-11-23T22:12:15.280-05:00What is Thanksgiving?Do you know what the people in United State of America going to celebrate this week? Well, if you are here in the State right now or you know someone from the here, I know you know what is the big celebration about. Yeah! It is Thanksgiving Day on Thursday. I had been asking about it to my husband. He told me it started when the settlers first get together. And then I also asked a new friend about that Thanksgiving and she said it is when the Indians meet with the people from England. But before I thought it is all about when the snow weather start and the celebration. Well, so I will try wikipedia and search will see what it says.<br />
<br />
<br />
<em>Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving Day, currently celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November, has been an annual tradition in the United States since 1863. Thanksgiving was historically a religious observation to give thanks to God.</em><br />
<em><br />
</em><br />
<em>The event that Americans commonly call the first Thanksgiving was celebrated to give thanks to God for helping the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony survive their first brutal winter in New England. The first Thanksgiving feast lasted three days, providing enough food for 53 pilgrims and 90 Native Americans. The feast consisted of fish (cod, eels, and bass) and shellfish (clams, lobster, and mussels), wild fowl (ducks, geese, swans, and turkey), venison, berries and fruit, vegetables (peas, pumpkin, beetroot and possibly, wild or cultivated onion), harvest grains (barley and wheat), and the Three Sisters: beans, dried Indian maize or corn, and squash.</em>MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-35695791728806798552010-11-22T18:11:00.000-05:002010-11-22T18:11:42.790-05:00Small BusinessSince I started my small nail business in the town, I think a lot of things to do so people will know about it. I will make my own business card, posters that my husband posted in every part of the town and in the neighboring area. And as I mentioned that I posted it on facebook and has it’s own page for everyone to like and have can have track about the nail shop. I am also thinking to build a new website for the business, if I can find a cheap web host or even a free one just for the starting business. I know there’s hosting site that I can find just for now as the building process of the business. I also want to make my own business logo for the sake of promoting easily to everybody. As I observed when you have your own logo it is much more easier for everyone to recognize your products or the services you offered. As for example for me, I am doing nail shop business, if someone will see a logo of nails or a pedicure picture then they will surely know it is all about nails or about beauty service. I look online for logo and I found <a href="http://www.logomojo.com/Logo-design-packages.html">Logo Design Packages</a> that are designed by professionals. I’m thinking of getting one as part of the business building up process.MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-23053988517008064762010-11-22T17:39:00.000-05:002010-11-22T17:39:54.090-05:00Mae's Nails<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Today, November 22, 2010 I started my small business in our little town in Augusta, Kentucky. As I mentioned on my past post that I plan to get a space in a salon for a nail business. I officially opened it today and did my first client. She wanted a manicure and a spa pedicure, which I think I did good. She was so nice to me and I get pleased to do my job right. I am on appointment basis, so anyone who needs their nails to be done should call or text my phone to set time for it. Sometimes I will do walk-in clients but I prefer to those making appointments. I will be making my own gift certificate that everyone likes to have as present for the coming holidays. I hope all will work well for my small business and me. Wish me luck! Check out my page on facebook and search on “Mae’s Nails” and don't forget to like it.</div><br />

It’s now 6:02AM, thanks to my PC clock because our wall clock is not working and I need to get one from <a href="http://www.1-800-4clocks.com/hermle-clocks.html">hermle clocks</a> for a change to a better one. I am still online and waiting for my eyes to get tired so I can go back to sleep. So I checked wikipedia about sleeping problem, though I know it is because of the 13 hours difference from our Philippine vacation but still I am anxious to know about it! I end up reading about “Sleep apnea”. It is a sleep disorder characterized by abnormal pauses in breathing or instances of abnormally low breathing, during sleep. Each pause in breathing, called an apnea, can last from a few seconds to minutes, and may occur 5 to 30 times or more an hour. Similarly, each abnormally low breathing event is called a hypopnea. Sleep apnea is diagnosed with an overnight sleep test called a polysomnogram, or "sleep study".<br />

There are three forms of sleep apnea: central (CSA), obstructive (OSA), and complex or mixed sleep apnea. Regardless of type, an individual with sleep apnea is rarely aware of having difficulty breathing, even upon awakening. Sleep apnea is recognized as a problem by others witnessing the individual during episodes or is suspected because of its effects on the body (sequelae). Symptoms may be present for years (or even decades) without identification, during which time the sufferer may become conditioned to the daytime sleepiness and fatigue associated with significant levels of sleep disturbance. <br />

For sure this is not our case since we can’t sleep, while apnea is problem while you are sleeping!MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-4687835896623905182010-11-20T05:31:00.002-05:002010-11-20T05:31:59.066-05:00online income<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">It’s been a hard time for to adjust our sleeping hours. Since Wednesday we did not sleep all throughout the night. I know it’s because we just got back from the Philippines and had the 13 hours difference in our clock here in Kentucky. Well we been up since 3:30 AM and is online for almost 2 hours now! My husband was online at our other computer in the other room too but he is now trying to go back to sleep at the couch here in our living room while I am still here doing my blogging. I got lucky too because I did posted some post to earn money! I’m sure all of you know which site I am talking about and I don’t want to mention it here. You can leave a comment and ask me about it if you want to have a little bit more income. </div>MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-34338069917040681712010-11-20T05:10:00.001-05:002010-11-20T05:11:15.346-05:00Business TechniquesI will be starting my work in a salon on Monday as a nail technician. In preparation of my business, I am trying to let everyone know about it! Well, there is a lot of kind of advertisement that my husband and I are thinking about. One of these is making posters and posts it to some area where there is many chances that it can be seen. Also I made on own facebook page only for the nail business and you can find it by searching “<u>Mae’s Nails</u>". I’m thinking now to make my own website but I need to check about the site to host on my web page. Do you have any idea about a <a href="http://webhostingrating.com/">website hosting</a>? Based on wikipedia, a web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own or lease for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. While I am still deciding what website hosting service I will get, I will also figure out more techniques to do on how to make my business successful.

Well, I got comment from my last post regarding the third picture of Church in Simala that I posted. He was surprised with the picture saying that he doesn’t know that there is a place like that in Philippines. I have a lot of pictures from that Church and I will post here some more. You can also read more about that church on my past post about a year ago in here “<a href="http://mae-onlyndaphils.blogspot.com/2009/06/simala-in-cebu.html">Simala in Cebu</a>”. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

We have been enjoying our vacation with my family and friends. I went to the cemetery with my family to visit our departed relatives and loved ones in the observance of the all souls day. We also went swimming at the beach here in Iligan city in our first week in the country. And then I and my husband with my sister decided to went to Cebu City to visit my cousin and also to see the Miraculous Mama Mary at one of the province in Cebu City. It was the third time that I visited the church, on my last visits that church was not fully built yet but now it is almost done and it’s a huge church! We say prayers and petitions then went to my cousin’s house and stayed there for 2 days. We also went to beach while we were in Cebu City, you can tell it with my skin because it’s getting darker from all the beach swimming we had. Then we went to mall when we went back to the City proper and had a little shopping with my sister while my husband was watching movie at a movie house inside the mall. Well, today we just got back from Cebu City! Will write more updates here soon and pictures to share to you.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><br />

I am having a great big smile right now while writing this post. You want to know why? Well, we just got home from Frankfort, Kentucky specifically at the Kentucky Board of Hairdresser and Cosmetologist. I took my state board exam for my professional license as a nail tech. And you surely know now why I am smiling big it’s because I got it! I got the license that I been waiting to have for more than 2 months now since I got out from the beauty school. We went to Frankfort last Sunday and check-in at a hotel there since my examination schedule is early 8 o’clock in the morning the next day. We decided to drive there a day before because live more than 2 hours drive away. Today was a very long day for me. My husband and I got up like 6:30 in the morning and get ready. When we got at the State board place, I went inside while my husband waiting me inside our car at the parking area. They called all the examiners for a nail tech practical exam that scheduled 8am to signed in and then I waited for like 5 minutes and then they called us again to go to a room where we did our practical test. It took us 1 hour and 30 minutes to get done. After the practical we waited and waited until we got tired of waiting and ask on why it took us so long to wait while the other batch who were behind us are already gone. Then we decided to ask some people who are working there and then they just told us to wait for a minute and they will get back to us. Until they told us that our batch list was misplaced and they just found it, which was so frustrating because it’s like we are the only people there waiting and everybody are gone. We waited for 6 hours in the waiting room with no food because we are afraid that they call us to take the written test and we are not available. At last around 3:30 in the afternoon they finally called us for the written test. After an hour we found out the result and I passed it and brought home my license! </div><br />

It is a very good idea so we can save some money that we been paying for extra channels that we really don’t need. We have a lot of channels that is really not important and we never watch. As I am always online and writing my blog page for new post every day, I really don’t have much time to pay attention what ever is on. Well, my husband love watching TV shows as he says he can’t live without it! Between online and watching TV, I prefer to be in the Internet world. When I am online, I can watch TV shows and do a blog post or update my facebook and chat my friends. There is a lot of available <a href="http://www.spreety.com/">Online TV</a> that we can watch online. It is the same fun as the regular one. I can say it is much easier to watch shows online since you can bring your computer or laptops anywhere as long as you have the Internet access. Unlike the regular TV that you should just stay in your room and watch it! We already fixed our decision and will be watching channels that we don’t have on regular cable.MAE SNAPPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07630008587796925762noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371548391752430677.post-77369078738863051902010-10-17T00:12:00.002-04:002010-10-17T09:35:52.289-04:00wrestling loversI am writing this while I'm thinking my husband because he is not around yet. He went our with his band members to play music in the nearest town. Well, he is a big fan of wrestling! Even you can tell it if you will visit his blog page titled <a href="http://www.onlybobsopinion.net/">only my opinion</a>. To tell you the truth and not only you will know it but also my husband knows that i don't like watching wrestling. I just don't like it! Well he is not the only one that loves to watch wrestling, i guess all his friends and also his little nephew, who just celebrated his birthday the last day. And because the nephew also loves wrestling, all his birthday gift was something related to the wrestling world. I am sharing you his pictures here. Don't forget to look at his birthday cake which look like a wrestling ring. <br />

Here are some examples of it: Healthy Nails will have a pink appearance, are flexible, rarely break, are smooth, and have no visible signs of splitting, peeling, or breakage. It is recommended treatment is to apply strengtheners and conditioners to help balance what is needed to keep nails healthy, flexible and breakage- free. There are also dry, brittle nail that can show ridging, flaking at the free edge, as well as dry white spots that can be similar to dandruff.
