Friday Watch Yay

Heyyyyyy…I don’t know what it is about autumn but it makes me want to lock in and get productive. Spring and Autumn seem to be my energetic “get ‘er done” times and Winter and Summer are for percolating and/or hibernating. How about ya’ll?

I’m getting a new gym membership, working on (and finishing lol) book proposals, starting to prep for my Dec 2nd book launch, and interviewing for a new role at my university (I enjoy my current role but wanted to do a stretch and try a new direction). It’s working in crisis management and while I can easily crash my computer due to 38483828 tabs and browsers…I’m pretty calm under pressures—thanks ADHD. Wish me luck and here’s to normalizing putting ourselves out there no matter the result :)

I’m also procrastinating from sharing that… yes I’m still watching Tempest. Nooooo, I’m not particularly enjoying. I’m also not actively disliking. I might be hyperbolic about it though in recording just for fun lol. I do want state for the record that I have a submarine “thing.” This fun fact appeared to surprise Megan and Amy. So let me out myself: I’m a submarine enthusiast

Do I ever want to spend significant time in one? Absolutely not. But I find them compelling.

I’m wrapping ep 7 so almost finished. Maybe I’ll still fall in love 🤷‍♀️. I really wanted to love it. I’ve also been watching Chief of War on AppleTV and have been much more invested in that story…def giving a violence warning though.

After Tempest I’ll need to get to Aema asap as we are going to be podding it soon. And I need to pick a new show simply for the love of the game.

Also as a hint… I’m editing Memories of Murder for next week which I did with Megan back in June but we haven’t gotten out. If you haven’t seen Memories of Murder…. Megan enjoyed it a normal amount. I REALLY enjoyed. It’s a hard watch so feels weird to say “I love it” but if you can love an “inspired by a true story” serial killer story… yeah I loved it. And fwiw… I rented it off YouTube. I’m picky on movies as I greatly prefer shows. But for me this was a 10/10 no notes top forever fave.

Ramble over.

So what are you watching????

I was sick this week and ended up binging Bon Appetit, Your Majesty, to my surprise. I feel like watching through a haze of illness was the best way to enjoy this one. I was not upset by the ending and was super impressed by Lee Chae Min. I restarted the Double (cdrama) and was not at all prepared for it to turn into a school drama. I don’t know if I’ll make it through. I have been slowly making my way through Flex X Cop the past couple weeks, and it’s been a pleasant surprise. I’m not usually a fan of detective dramas, but it’s so charming and funny, I can’t help but continue.

I feel sure Love's Ambition will settle your restlessness and you'll become obsessed along with us who have been captivated. I'm also watching Ms Incognito and wondering if the FL can hold on with the strawberry man suspicious.

Happy Weekend everyone! Hope it’s been exactly what you needed!💕 I think I have just been in a different mind space for watching recently. I think I feel restless watching wise for want of a better description. Hoping that it settles down soon! Tempest-Still need to watch the last episode, perhaps tonight. It kinda fell off the rails for me but I am still in love with the leads. Queen Mantis-Intense, I really like the premise of this. Definitely trigger warnings should be in place. Shocking to see Sindy from Her Private Life all grown up, holding her own in this. Season 2? When Destiny Brings The Demon-CDrama why am I enjoying this so much?! Definitely because of Arthur Chen and Wang Ying Lu..they are bringing me back for more. Love their banter and chemistry. Ms Incognito-it started with a bang. Wondering if it will maintain the intensity or will it morph into a romance before coming back for vengeance. I’m curious and look forward to this journey. Loves Ambition-CDrama. Came for Zhao Lu Si. Only through Ep 1. Mobius-CDrama This one is ready for me to press play. My comfort watch has been Rented In Finland and The Art of Negotiation. I am definitely in a Lee Je Hoon loop right now. Genie Make A Wish-Man, I want to like this but it’s just not hitting the spot. Love Kim Woo Bin but not loving Suzy’s character at episode 1. Enjoy your week!💕
