What to do this weekend while waiting for the US election results

By Camille Santiago Published Nov 06, 2020 3:05 am

It's been over 72 hours since the polls closed in the United States for their 2020 presidential elections, but no final announcement has been made yet.

The US elections are important  for everyone around the world. And so while we wait for the news, or if you need a good break from politics, do other fun, mindless things to destress.

Here, we list down some activities you can do this weekend—from shows to binge watch, virtual tours to check out, and things to shop, we got you!

Watch true crime series

There's nothing quite like the thrill of attempting to solve a crime. We don't know about you but true crime shows are on our watchlist, such as the ones from hayu's lineup. There are over 40 true crime shows in this streaming app including Kim Kardashian-West's The Kim Kardashian-West Justice Project, Killing Versace, In Justice with Nancy Grace, Deadly Cuts, Snapped, Ice Cold Blood, and more.

We're not over Halloween just yet! This week only, you can play virtual escape rooms such as the heart-pounding escape rooms from Breakout Manila. GOMO, the newest digital telco, is making it possible for young digital-savvy individuals to play this without having to worry about their plans and data usage. They're partnering with Breakout Manila and Shoor for this culminating activity.

You can also watch the GOMO concert on November 7, 8PM, featuring 88rising stars like producer and pop star Joji, Indonesian singer and songwriter NIKI, and South Korean singer CHUNG HA. 

To experience the Halloween-themed virtual escape rooms, sign up for free at #WeDontStop Halloween. GOMO’s #WeDontStop concert will be streaming on GOMO'S Facebook event page on November 7 exclusively for the Philippines.
