*Marley & Me*

For our dept's offsite today, we went to watch Marley & me. Basically, it revolves around a couple's life with their marriage, career and later on, their dog(Marley) and kids....

I really like the show because I found that I could relate to it...
-> To their love for their dog before they had kids

-> To cope with a totally new lifestyle after having a child and having a dog in the meantime too.
>> there was this scene whereby Jennifer just manage to get her kids nap and she just lay down for a seond. Her husband then drove in and the dog got on his usual barking. And the kids were awoken. She couldn't take it and asked Owen to send the dog away.

-> Those exasperating times when the wife is too tired after handling the baby the whole day. And I can tell you how much it means just to see the husband home.
>> reminds me of weekend previously and my maternity leave period.... whereby my life revolves around breastfeeding baby, changing diaper, patting him to sleep and that's when eating meals and bathing becomes a chore cos what I wished was to SLEEP. cos baby waking up almost every hourly at nite is no joke.

-> When the wife snapped at the husband who was too slow in lending a hand. Jennifer Aniston wanted to take a shower and the colicky baby needed a diaper change and she tasked Owen with it. He took over but within a minute, the wife was back and shooed the hb away with resentment.

Usually when I watched a show, it's in my imagination or fascination world that I like it. But I like this show because it's damn real.... :)
