這波疫情宅在家
我像是讓自己放了假
剛才早安新聞還跟小路說感覺好像在過年
因為通常我只有春節假期會通宵追劇

來推薦好劇學英文啦，筆記大整理📒

蘋果原創自製的影集 The Morning Show
卡司超強，大咖飆戲就是好看
美國演員公會獎SAG最佳女主角
艾美獎最佳男配

因為自己週一到週五都在做直播新聞節目
看戲裡面跟新聞有關的討論特別有感
至於職場勾心鬥角，我真的就是看戲
因為我們團隊超級和諧，感恩的心

嚴格說起來
整齣戲以新聞為背景但重點不是新聞
而是 #MeToo
談性別與職場文化，多樣不扁平
如果喜歡女力議題值得一看
第二季正在拍了

劇本文筆很好，我覺得捕捉到新聞人（news people）講話用字精簡偏難的特點，很值得學進階對話英文

總之我覺得很好看，就一口氣把十小時看完了

✏️Quotes
How nice it is to be so comfortable with someone that you can just sit in silence and not have to talk. 真！

Desperation is not a strong position to make a big move.

People get their horrible news delivered to the palm of their hand 24/7, and they get it the way that they like it, colored the way that they want it. And news is awful, but humanity is addicted to it, and the whole world is depressed by it.

The War Criminals in Israel want to silence us on Social Media.

The more they try, the more we should fight back.

The Criminals attempt to silence us signals great desperation & paranoia.

Don't stop until everyone knows the truth.

It's finally a wrap! Such mixed feelings. Always. Especially for this project.

Filming《大大的梦想》is by far the hardest production of my life. Not because of the script or filming process, but because i started filming when Layla was just 4.5m old. In this 3months of filming, I went thru 3 rounds of growth spurt, transitting her to sleeping alone, teething, her learning how to sit and crawl, and starting solids. Well, that basically equates to NO SLEEP for Mama! On top of that, there's still scripts to memorize every night. I could have slept in and let my helper do the nightshifts. But i felt terrible that she'll have to do both the day and night! Also, that means Layla will not have me to take care of her at all! So, i chose to wake up when she wakes up at night.

The beginning was the hardest. Both Layla and i had to get use to a new rhythm and routine. She was crying so much bcos i wasn't there for her to latch. She was totally not familiar with drinking from bottles then. So in the day she didnt drink much, neither did she sleep much. It was a horrible time for me at work. I was zombie from lack of sleep, and worrying abt how people was handling her at home. My heart and my body was nv in the same place.

On days I'm not working, i will bring her out and prepare purees so when I'm not able to feed her, other people will have frozen cubes ready for her. In short, i never rested. 😭

Oh, dont get me started on pumping. I lugged a huge bag with pumping equipments everywhere i went. and pray that my cooler bag dont melt under the hot sun! I pumped in the car whenever we move from one location to another. Which means i had to drive everywhere instead of taking company transport(again, no rest). Sometimes, in desperation, i even had to resort to pumping in the toilet. Yikes, hate that the most! So unhygienic!

Fast forward 3 months later, what i need to deal with now is my dwindling milk supply, bcos i just couldn't pump as often when i was at work. I def dont have enough to meet her demand now. 😭 And even if i do, she doesnt wanna latch anymore after realizing the convenience of drinking from a bottle. So looks like it's gonna be (cont below)
