Aloha friends!

Another week is over and here’s what happened:

+ It’s September! So that means I had to spend some time getting my car maintenance done and safety check. I waited about 3 hours but at least I got to sit and read!

+ Football (NFL) is back! And the Philadelphia Eagles won their first game, so I’m happy.

Today’s is my son’s 13th birthday! Which means he is doing his Bar Mitzvah in July 2026 😬 I’m already stressed after the information session we got about the whole process. But my heart is so full today – he’s such an amazing young man and still gives me his cheek to kiss (he’s taller than me 😩) when he tells me goodnight every night. 😭 Time flies…but anyways, how is your week going? 😊

Aloha friends!

Another week is over and here’s what happened:

+ My son is going to have his Bar Mitzvah next year so we have to attend “bootcamp” today to get all the information about the process, what he will need to do, what we need to do as parents, etc…

+ My daughter is almost done with swim classes but I’m signing her up for another six weeks, starting in mid-September. I love seeing her go from being scared in the first two classes to really building up her confidence each week!

+ We’re also going to the theater to watch K-Pop Demon Hunters today. Me and the kids have watched it about 5 times on Netflix, my daughter’s school plays the music during recess and lunch recess, and my son has been trying to make his hair like Jinu’s. My husband has walked in on us watching it twice but he always caught the ending – so he bought tickets claiming now he has a chance to see the full thing on screen.

Are we really almost at the end of August? Will I really have a teenager next week Wednesday? 😭 I can’t believe my son will be a TEEN. Sigh…where has the time gone? I’m trying to finish up September arcs and then I think I will feel freer for the rest of the year because my arc load will be much less! Just in time for the busy holidays right? Hope you are having a great week!

Aloha friends!

Another week is over and here’s what happened:

+ Short week for the kiddos so I got to read a little more, which was nice.

+A friend invited me to a concert at the Waikiki Shell. It was Alex Warren who sings that very popular song, The Ordinary. It’s so funny because I knew that song on booktok edits – they would always use his song on romantasy book reviews or edits! And now he’s on tour 😅. Anyway, it was a little adventure to get to the Waikiki Shell at rush hour on a Thursday! Good thing is my kids had a holiday the next day. I didn’t wanna drive though, so I took the rail for the first time since it started operating I think…last year? I took the rail to near where my friend lived which totally worked out. I avoided traffic and she could pick me up at the rail station and then we both hit rush hour traffic trying to get to Waikiki but she was driving not me. And I forgot how hard it was to find parking around the venue – so we had to circle a few times. Anyway here’s a little video of my adventure:

I didn’t realize Alex Warren’s wife was from Hawaii! I thought his show was very good, he was funny and his voice sounded great live. I only really knew that one song though and it was short since he only has so many songs to sing. He even brought out his mother-in-law to dance a hula which was really cool! It was a nice girl’s night out!

Shows/Movies/Music I Watched/Listened To:

  • The Summer I Turned Pretty (Amazon Prime Video) – Season 3 – how was that scene where Belly is cleaning up Conrad’s wound. She needs to call that wedding off NOW.
  • Chief of War (Apple+) – Episode 4 – still watching with my son and enjoying it!
  • Wednesday (Netflix) – Season 2 – Episodes 1-3 – I’m trying to draw this out because I hate how Netflix breaks up a season in 2 parts. RIDICULOUS. 🙄 But enjoying it so far – how can I not? I love Wednesday’s whole personality lol.
  • Love Next Door (Netflix) – wanted to watch a K-drama rom-com and so far loved episode 1.

Listened to Conan Gray‘s new album: Wishbone – LOVE IT!!!

Are Swifties okay today? 😅 I don’t think I’m a “Swiftie” but I am a fan and I was surprised about the album release, wasn’t that fun to find out on 8.12. at 12:12? LOL…except in Hawaii it was 6:12pm so we didn’t have to stay up late for the announcement. I think that’s the most exciting thing to happen this week. It definitely countered the constant bad news we have happening in our country daily. Plus my mood has been so blah this week, a combination of the hot weather and a heavy period – the worst. Tomorrow my friend got tickets to Alex Warren and she says I AM GOING lol…so I guess I’m going even though I only know his one song, The Ordinary. At least I’ve been reading more!

Another week is over and here’s what happened:

+ Kids are back in school so I’m back in the drop off and pick-up routine! And it’s been HOT this week – every time I go out to pick up my kids, I come home dripping in sweat. Yuck!

+ I am seeing Halloween candy and decor at the stores. 😩. It kind of freaks me out because I know that means the next 5 months are gonna go by FAST. School and the holidays always go by so fast.
