Aloha Friday | 10/30/20

Halloween is tomorrow and a full moon 🌕. The election is on Tuesday and my birthday is on Wednesday. It’s going to be a wild few days right?

Netflix:

• Over the Moon – I love the music, the animation, the super cute rabbit, and the story. I’ll be rewatching this one a few times and my daughter loved it because of the bunny but I love that she gets to watch a girl character building a rocket. Anyway, I cried! 😭Triggers: grief. Philippa Soo who is Eliza from Hamilton is the moon goddess in this movie and I love her voice so much so yes, this soundtrack is going to be on repeat on my apple music app. Also, the voice of Fei Fei, Cathy Ang has an amazing voice too. I had to look her up and so proud to know she’s Chinese-Filipina! Yay, my kids are half Filipino so I love learning about more Filipino talent out there. I’ll be watching it again soon because my son didn’t watch it (he was in his online class haha) – so he says I have to watch it with him.

Other TV:

• Masked Singer – it was my first time watching this show, though I’ve seen it trend a lot on twitter. I really loved the Mushroom’s voice!
• I Can See Your Voice – my son watched this with me and he got so nervous for the contestant it was funny and sweet. We had fun trying to make our guesses!

** Weird side note, all the things I watched this week had a common theme. The actor/comedian Ken Jeong was in all of them! 😅 He’s on the Masked Singer panel, he’s the host of I Can See Your Voice and in Over the Moon he is Gobi, that strange alien dog/seal/hedgehog creature and he can SING! So unexpected but he’s so talented right?**

Adulting:

• I already voted by mail two weeks ago.
• My mom, sister and her son will be sleeping over at our house on Halloween. The mall near us is having a drive thru trick-or-treat so maybe we’ll do that. I was thinking of doing a scavenger hunt around the house too? But…we’ll see…🤷🏻‍♀️ need to look for some ideas.

What are your plans for this weekend? Stay safe everyone!
