分两天把这个剧本读完，第一天期盼着伴随着真相的展开，也许结局会逆转。第二天读的时候全程提着一口气，母亲依然是那个自恋的母亲，Jessie到死都在寻求对自我生命的主导，想起了winnicott提出的true self and false self, Jessie一辈子都活在false self之中，反哺照顾母亲的各种需求，找不到真正的自我。Jessie的自我了结是对真我的追寻，或者又是对母亲的恨，对母亲的终极惩罚？从母亲的角度，这个自杀的行为轨迹是可以被干预的吗？也许可以，也许不能
知道這本書是某日知道了同名電影的存在，又得知張國榮喜歡。二月十一日借 三月十幾號才開始看吧 續租了兩次 四月九日讀完。最後有關鍵的兩小段沒怎麼讀懂，所以不是太清楚她為何那樣。第一本英文書。
自杀是个人选择还是家庭责任，要活得miserable还是get off the bus. 十年落到十点钟，对于时间的compulsive（同学说像Modern/dark version of Cinderella），精心的策划死亡交代好一切，安然的死去。这是可以补救的吗？-we could have more nights like this -no, we can't, because is the next part that's made the last part so good. 终于能有全全属于你的了，Jessie

A daughter tells her mother her plan to commit suicide later that evening, and the audience is led to watch through how her mother would react and how the daughter would explain herself. A great story about a woman trying to take control of her life through shooting herself, as choose death marks her out and gives her an independent identity.
8错
一口气读完 读的时候我一直在代入我跟我妈 所以感到很窒息 这仿佛就是过去我理想中的suicide。Jessie那种轻描淡写的语气也是我理想中的 而且Jessie离开的原因甚至也跟我的原因差不多。而且我和我妈之间好像已经发生过这样的对谈 只不过我根本做不到Jessie那样冷静 这也是为什么我说“理想中的”。读的时候什么都没想 只想到我和我妈了 好几次必须停下来深呼吸 要不然眼泪一下就流出来。
I thought you were mine…读了三个小时，救命。
大晚上不宜看这种很丧的剧本——通过死亡来行使自主权，真正能掌握的就只有自己的命了。加上台词说自己已经坐够巴士了，既然再坐五十年到达的还是原来的地方（空虚、疲惫、无能），不如现在就下车（死亡）。感觉得喝几碗鸡汤才能平静下来。
