bilyar.NET’s Xmas Party!
December 31, 2008
Friends, an online site I co-own, bilyar.net,
held its first ever Christmas Party on December 27, 2008,
at the Hobbies of Asia Billiards Hall, Macapagal Avenue, Pasay City!
With the help of friends and participants, we managed
to pull it off! And I kid you not!
Here a short video clip on the fun we had that night!
Hope you like it!
Happy New Year, friends!

X’S:
And here’s another video
featuring Singapore’s #1 female pool player,
Charlene Chai, who dropped by for a visit in 2008.
Perfect cover up
December 31, 2008
Are you like me? Do you wish you had the perfect body? You know, ample perky breasts, cute little booty and toned abs like you worked out regularly? Ok keep wishing. Well for those who ARE like me, then a little bulge should not hinder us from being our most fashionable or most confident (my hubby is actually looking at me right now like I’m being weird or something - Men!).
Spring 2009 of Stella McCartney
December 31, 2008
Speaking of Stella McCartney, has anyone seen her creations for LeSportsac.
The company that was infamous because of TokiDoki invited Stella for a little fun. (Fall and Spring 2008)
These bags are like TokiDoki sober with dashes and splashes of Stella’s subtle yet statement-making ways.
Other collaborations are with H&M (the advertising is cool!), Adidas, and Target Australia. (more here)
Recently her collections for Spring Summer 2009 consisted of laces, soft fabrics, men’s tailoring and a monochromatic head to toe look (flesh tones, to stone gray, and the classic black and white).

Some By Chance, Some By Choice: In reference to an article by Nancy Rome
December 30, 2008
I read an article on being childless from the Washington Post and thought I must share it here. Here is an excerpt from Nancy Rome’s Childless: Some by Chance, Some by Choice
“No, no, sorry. I don’t have any . . .”
Why does this always seem to be the first thing I’m asked? It takes my breath away, yet why do I feel the need to apologize for my reply? Looking vague and embarrassed, my questioner glances over my shoulder for someone else to talk to: someone with whom he or she has more in common, someone with children.
I never thought I’d be childless. Thirteen years ago, my husband and I were expecting our first child. I was a healthy 37-year-old when I went into labor one chilly November morning. We raced to the hospital, the atmosphere between us full of anticipation and anxiety.
The delivery was normal; almost everything was normal. Except that our daughter was dead.
Nancy’s account on that November morning sent the chills to my spine. I could not imagine what it must feel like to lose a child after carrying her in your womb full term. I would have been really devastated.

Christmas Economics
December 30, 2008
My blog is distinctly missing a Christmas greeting and it’s not because I’m Scrooge in the flesh. Despite appearances, I am a Christmas fanatic. I studied in Catholic schools where every year, traditional tableaux reminded me of whose birthday it was we were celebrating. For some strange reason, I was never chosen to play Mary, Joseph or one of the three kings. The closest I could get to a role in a school tableau was as donkey alternate.

Rediscovering Cebu Restaurant Cheaverz’s Specialty
December 30, 2008
Sunday night…
I’ve been craving for a ngohiong for quite sometime now. I miss the ngohiong from my high school days; but the store opens until 2pm only, and it’s in Guadalupe.
Coming from The Terraces Ayala Cebu, I drove myself to this Filipino restaurant in Cebu, Cheaverz Fried & Grill, to order take-out of my favorite Filipino food.

a brief history of worms
December 30, 2008
my last post about DTI’s website being hacked prompted me to do some research on internet viruses and worms.
according to snowplow.org, the term “worm” originated from a science fiction story called “The Shockwave Rider” written by John Brunner in 1975. the story is about a totalitarian government that controls its citizens through a powerful computer network. a freedom fighter infests this network with a program called a “tapeworm” forcing the government to shut down the network, thereby destroy its base of power.

Where’s your mother kid?
December 29, 2008
There is nothing more fun than having to take advantage of the holidays to party, socialize, relax, let your hair down and allowing your kids to stay up way past their bedtime. The holiday season and its endless scheduled family gatherings, community get-togethers and block parties creates the perfect atmosphere for this kind of free spirited celebration.

Battle of the burgers
December 29, 2008
I know several people who would probably disagree (make that a lot) but if I were asked to choose between Jollibee or McDonalds, I would have to say McDonalds. Although it is not my first choice, it will do since it is admittedly one of the most accessible fast food joints in the metro.

Revisiting Cyma
December 27, 2008
Ever since I first ate at Cyma, I have been wanting to go back. I had tons of opportunities to go back because as it turns out, my clients, colleagues and friends are all fans of Cyma’s delicious food. This post actually tells of the different dishes I have tried and have come to love during the many times I (re)visited this restaurant.
World Domination and Value Meals
December 27, 2008
If there’s one thing in the Philippines that sprouts faster than weeds, it’s Jollibee outlets. It seems there’s always one in every corner. A little over five years ago, Cagayan de Oro only had two or three outlets around. Today, there are about ten of them with the newest having recently opened across Lourdes College. TEN! The number is enough to give you nightmares of swarms of giant yellow-orange bees out to get your pocket money and of thousands of chickens rising against chicken rights violations. Read more
Blog Hack and A Wedding
December 27, 2008
Finally, this blog is up and kicking again after 2 or 3 days in hiatus. This site was hacked and malicious scripts were injected to it’s root folders resulting to missing php’s. Thanks to Jez for his assistance.
As you probably noticed, Sonnie’s Porch was in semi-hibernate mode for about 2 weeks, providing only short updates and picture sharing. Blame it to budget preparation and business planning, blogging & work, at times, don’t blend well. I hope with the long Christmas vacation, I’ll be providing regular updates with value adding content that everyone expected.
Let me start by blogging about the wedding of a person dear to us. As I shared in my Plurk page, the wedding made me teary eyed for 2 reasons:
- I remembered my own wedding and the vow I made to my wife 16 years ago- As I see Bryan, the groom, wept as they exchange vow’s, I remembered myself weeping as I see my bride walk the aisles 16 years ago.
- Likewise, the bride, Dess, is dearly loved by wifey and myself.
