Finally achieving my dream of riding a horse

My favorite kinds of movies are old westerns with people like John Wayne as the heroes. I just think that they're so interesting and so fascinating to imagine actually living in times back then on the wild frontier. Plus, I think it would be really neat to ride in to rescue someone like a pro on a horse. So I thought that for my birthday coming up I would treat myself and taking some horse riding lessons.

I went online to find some information about lessons that I could take and as I was doing that I ran across some comparison between www.satelliteinternetbroadband.com/. I decided to switch over to another one after I read through the comparison.

I do have some horseback riding fears that have kept me from doing this for a long time already. I'm sure it doesn't help that I haven't tried this out until I reached middle age. But, I'm really determined to try and live out my dream by learning to ride a horse like John Wayne. Okay maybe not exactly like John Wayne, but just ride a horse.

The Internet Revolution

Back home, internet access in homes has just started to become a necessity. Before, accessing the world wide web is only done in the cities and in internet cafes. It was like we were so behind with the technology that the far flung barrios and municipalities could not really be reached. But thanks to the invention of satellite dishes, internet receivers, telephones, mobile phones, more and more families and individuals, even business and the local government offices in the provinces and small barrios now have access to the internet. Many companies have already set up internet service that offers access to emails, call alerts where users can still receive a call even while online, faster connection through dsl, archiving of email backups, even retrieval and recovery. Some also offered dial up which was first launched and gave initial, but still slow access to the internet.

But lately, because of the high demand for faster connections and ease in opening websites, broadband was then introduced. Soon, even the communications networks launched broadband sticks where everyone who has a laptop can check their emails, their favorite social networking sites and share pictures with all their friends, as long as there is WiFi.

When my family and I went home for a vacation a few years ago, I was just surprised at how so much has changed! I’ve seen a lot of students bringing their own laptops and netbooks browsing the internet, or probably, researching. I’ve noticed that many hot spots have been set up so that even in the malls, people can still have access to the internet. Indeed, times have really changed.

Time for an apartment decor refresher

I tend to get really bored with my home decor about every year or so. It probably has a lot to do with me working from home and having to see the stuff 24/7. But that can get really expensive to completely redo all of my home decor every time that I get bored with it. So I try to just change up a few things like buying some new accent pillows or hanging up a new poster in a poster frame to make it look a little bit nicer.

Now that it's time to do that, I think that I might just buy a can of paint and paint an accent wall in the living room that's in kind of an unexpected color that still coordinates with everything that I have anyway. I got the idea online while I was on my Wireless Internet and thought it looked so cool. Plus, it's a whole lot less trouble than painting all four walls, which will take way too much time and trouble to do anyway.

My Christmas wish list

Thanks to the miracle of Internet shopping, I actually have everything that I want figured out for what I want for Christmas. And I've already sent out my wish list to my family and friends too so I'll be more likely to get what I want. Sure, I'll still get the occasional bad gift just because some people aren't that great at gift giving, but I think that this will lessen the chances of that.

While I was putting together my Christmas wish list a few weeks ago, I ran across this website http://www.clearwireinternet.com, read through it and decided to change over my internet service by ordering one of the packages that I found on that site.

I told my kids that they could buy me a laptop stand and even sent the link to the one that I want through emails to both of them. I told my husband that he could get me a new long terry cloth robe because I think that I've worn out my old one. I think that I should have started doing this years ago.

Gifts with a little heart

It's all too easy to just go out and buy something for your friends and family for Christmas. But that can also get unnecessarily expensive. I mean, if someone cares about you, they don't want you to break the bank just to get them a gift! So I try to come up with neat and creative homemade gifts to give to people for the holidays. Plus, I have a lot more fun making and personalizing the gifts anyway.

I've made food mixes and stuck them in jars and neat looking containers, but I thought that I would come up with some new stuff this year, so I went looking online for some inspiration. When I was doing that I saw some stuff on an internet company offer and decided to click here to order the service.

I decided that one of the best homemade gifts that I'm going to make this year is a little blanket for my new niece. I had a little blanket when I was little that I loved taking with me everywhere, so I bought some bunny printed fabric that I think is going to make a really cute blanket.

Trying for a healthier Thanksgiving

Guest post written by Margaret Beacon

I've been on somewhat of a health kick lately and feel like I'm in so much better shape. Plus, lots of people have been complimenting me and telling me that it looks like I've lost weight! Besides feeling like I have more energy, that's a really great side effect. So I'm going to try and find some healthier ways to fix some of the Thanksgiving classic dishes.

I've been reading a lot about what's better for you to eat online with our clear wireless internet and have been finding out all kinds of information. I found out that both pumpkin pie and lemon meringue pie is a lot healthier and has less calories than pecan pie and cheery pie! I would have never guessed all of that.

But another thing that I found that I think would be really good and a whole lot healthier is making olive oil mashed potatoes instead of regular old ones. I actually made them for dinner the other night and they were really good! So they're definitely a go for Thanksgiving.

Apartment renovations

Guest post written by Scott Brewer

When I finally bought my apartment, it was a fixer upper. But it's in an up and coming neighborhood in Manhattan, which means that I could sell it and make a really good profit off of it in a few years, that is if I don't just decided to stay there after all.

When I bought it and started figuring out what I wanted to do I had some construction people knock out a wall and start working on putting in some hardwood floors. But while they were doing all of this I was also living there because the lease on my apartment had ended. So I also had to set up some utilities too so I could actually live normally even though there were people coming in and out of my apartment all the time. I found a great Internet and decided to CLICK on it and get it.

I was so glad to have the Internet to entertain and keep me busy because I couldn't really use my living room to do it.

They finally finished up the renovations and I'm really enjoying my place now. It looks so different from the apartment that I paid for.

Shopping for a car online

Guest post from: Bruno Smith


When I first graduated college I started job hunting right away. I realize how hard it was to get around without a car so I decided to go and buy my very first car. A lot of people told me that it was the easiest to find information on different cars online. Since I didn't know a lot about cars I decided to look online for some help. I went to google and typed in buying a car, and I got a ton of websites that popped out. After browsing through many of them and trying to find a reasonable price for a college student that don't have a buy, I ended up finding a 2002 Honda Civic that I really liked. It was much easier for me to browse for cars because I use a rural internet service in CO which lets me surf much faster than dial up. The Civic that I bought only cost me about 3,000 dollars and I was very pleased. I didn't want a new or expensive car because I just learned how to try and I was afraid I would crash it or get into a accident. Also insurance would be too expensive if I got a new car. Not to mention I didn't even have enough money to get a car that costs over 5000 dollars. Ill be using my internet satellite for many more purchases like this from now on.

Searching for Wedding Invitations Online

Authored by Pattie Combs


The hughes net satellite internet can be a great resource when you're planning your wedding! I'll be getting married next summer and have already spent countless hours looking at everything from flowers to dresses to tuxedos for the groom and even the little pillow for our rings!


Today I was looking for wedding invitations with my hughes satellite MD connection. It's so easy to find a large assortment of elegant and classy invitations on the internet with one of the many wireless internet providers! I want my big day to be perfect and finding the right invitations are essential to the perfection I'm looking for that day! I especially like the ones that are written a little less formally and sound more like I wrote them myself.


I also have to be mindful of my budget! There are some great places that sell invitations for a very reasonable cost on the internet. Many websites even have whole ensembles so I could actually buy the invitations, date card, reception card, response card, thank you card and menu card all together, which is perfect for me because I don't need the stress of having to purchase all of them separately and hoping that they'll all match as well as they could! Or worse yet, forgetting something!


So much to research and so little time! It's a good thing I have fast satellite internet to help me with my searching!

Staying In Touch With Family

The writer of this guest posting is Nira Garon



Leaving family behind is often one of the hardest parts of moving to a new location. Whether it is just across the state, or around the country, leaving loved ones is never easy. However, times have changed since the pioneers began to move across the country, and it is now easier than ever to stay in contact with loved ones. There are many ways to talk to people using different Internet applications.



One of the best ways to stay in touch with family is by using e-mail. e-mail is the perfect way to communicate with people over a long distance. It allows both parties to write and respond to messages at their convenience. E-mail also allows for images to be sent so that you can update your parents and other family members about what your new location is like. Many e-mail clients are now beginning to support an instant messenger feature. This can also come in handy because it allows you to talk to the people on your contact list in real time, as well as talk to people on other instant messenger networks.



Just because you are moving does not mean that you will not be able to communicate with your family ever again. With hughesnet deals Satellite Internet I have been able to keep in constant contact with my parents, and ease any worries that they may have had about my moving.

Options for Uploading Photos

I just recently searched for the best satellite internet providers california has to offer so that I could manage photos online, so I chose wildblue satellite internet service.I have found that managing photos online can be a tremendous chore unless the service selected offers a way to organizing them through software management. Uploading and downloading pictures used to be a time consuming and tedious process, until I got wild blue satellite internet service. Now, even large, high quality shots can be uploaded in a flash, leaving more time to put together some albums for my facebook page.

Since social networking has become so popular, more and more users are connecting on these types of sites. By sharing interesting pictures and captions, a great deal of new friends are made and acquired. These need to be sorted out however, into the event of theme that is being shown. Just having a random wall of photos is great, but not if you want to have a great idea of fan page put up.

Many types of sites exist to host photos, but I like the ones where you can have a variety of folders in which to put different images. There can be one of the recent backyard party, or that graduation event. It really doesn't matter what is uploaded, as long as it is put into the proper space. I like to make sense of out chaos and this lets me have my freedom of expression along with an outlet to share with the world.

Father's Day Again

Guest blog post from my friend Caroline Hammons.

Here it is, another June, which means I'm shopping for Father's Day once more. All my plans about buying gifts months in advance went right out the window. Fortunately, I can quickly shop online with my wild blue internet, and get the job done quickly, as Father's Day is coming up fast.

Since my father is interested in work, more work, and oh, of course, lots of work, that pretty much leaves the selections pared down to tools, only. He's the handy, do-all, fix-it guy in our family. Because of this, he has many specialized tools already. He has hand tools, and power tools, and enough of each to stuff a couple of garages. I looked on the satellite internet for something he didn’t have, but it was difficult to find something.

I wish he had a hobby, besides fixing my kitchen sink when it clogs. Then he would be easy to shop for. He might have time for one, if he didn't have me. Unfortunately, he doesn't golf, he doesn't wear a watch, or jewelry, nor does he care for the occasional silly t-shirt.

This leaves me somewhere between shop towels and a portable air compressor. Perhaps it should be sheetrock nails, since he went through all of his working on my basement. Or band aids, for the next project. That's it. Perfect. And then the late night phone call when the air conditioner breaks. It’s amazing that not even my amazing wild blue satellite internet could find something for me to get my dad. It just goes to show how picky he is and how he really doesn’t want anything.

Getting A Return Address Stamp for Free

I recently received an email from vistaprint.com claiming that I could get a bunch of items for free. I do not own a business so I wasn't really interested in any of these items, however I thought that having a return address stamp would be idea for when I have to send something in the mail. I decided to check the website out and ordered one of these stamps. I chose to get slow delivery, since it was only a few dollars and I was in no hurry to receive the items. After I purchased the order via hughesnet satellite internet, it only ended up costing me around four dollars. Now all I had to do was wait and see if the item would actually come.

To my surprise the stamp came in the mail the next week. I was expecting to wait at least a month until I received anything, if I received anything at all, after all usually when something is free there is always a catch. When I opened the item the stamp was great quality. It is honestly something I would pay at least twenty dollars for, and all I had to do was pay shipping. So, whether you own a business or you just want to test out some stationary products, this website stands by their products and free means free. All you have to do is pay shipping and you could have business cards, return address stamps, or even promotional tee shirts sent to your door!

Beauty Products Online

I’ve used the same lotions and shower gels since I was in high school. Bath and Body Works has always been my go to for all of my skin care goods. Most of my candles and aromatherapy oils are from Bath and Body Works as well. I’ve been using the products for so long that I no longer need to go to the store to pick out my favorite items. It is much easier for me to get online and make my purchase in a matter of minutes using my satellite internet. Anytime I realize I am getting low on an item, I simply log in to their website and refill my supply. Since I have used the website and ordering system so regularly, all of my information is stored. I also get great deals through their mailings and email blasts for free trial sized items or reduced and even free shipping.

My favorite thing about the website is all of the great deals I get for being a customer. Almost on a weekly basis I get something beneficial to me in my mailbox or email. These items not only save me money, but they alert me to great new items and products they have coming out. I no longer have to wait in line to pickup my favorite lotions and sprays, I can easily pick them out through the large selection online. I wouldn’t be able to get any of this stuff I had not signed up for a Satellite internet Texas plan. Here it is very hard to get good internet service but SatelliteStarInternet.com worked for me like a charm.

Saving Time with the Internet

Everyone is so busy nowadays that they are lucky if they even have the time to set down for a real meal at the end of the day. I know what this feels like and honestly by the end of the day i can still think of at least ten things that I did not get around to doing simply because I did not have the time. Thankfully most all of us have internet in our own homes that can make our life much simpler. We have the internet as our constant companion to just about every task that needs to be done. Whether it is research for a school paper, shopping for groceries, or just simply finding out if you need to see a doctor, it all can be found online.

There is not a day that goes by that I do not find myself using my satellite internet service at least once. I can remember back when everything I needed to know about had to be researched at the library. I would spend a countless amount of hours scouring over book after book just trying to figure out the easiest recipe for chicken for dinner. Now, not only do I save the gas to get to the library which is eight miles from my home, I have every chicken recipe that I could ever want right there at my fingertips. If I decide that I do not feel like going out to get dinner, I can simply order it online. If I want to know where the closest allergy doctor is to my hometown, I can pull up every one within a hundred mile radius and even find out what their ratings are.

I would seriously be lost without my highspeed wireless internet and all of the info that it provides for me. I do not know what I would do without it.
