THE BIG BANG THEORY- THE BATH ITEM GIFT HYPOTHESIS season2ep11

Leonard meets visiting researcher David, who is  physicist like he. Although Leonard jealous with David for being handsome, charming, cool, and a more successful than he is, he still accept David's offer to help him in his research. However, Leonard's joy of hanging out with David is hampered by jealousy when the latter meets Penny, and the two start dating but soon after, Penny breaks up with David after know he had been married.

Sheldon's subplot concerns the approaching Christmas holidays and his expect on what present to get Penny. After deciding on a basket of bath items, he discovers a wide selection of them is available, unsure of what Penny is going to get him and thus what sort of reparations will be appropriate, he buys an entire array to cover all contingencies. Penny's gift, a napkin both autographed and used by Leonard Nimoy, thus containing DNA for Sheldon to clone his own Mr. Spock,is so extravagant that he gives her all the basket and a hug. Leonard then get the motorbike learning coupon as a gift from penny as Christmas present.

this story need me to understand by watching it 10 times. not because it was boring, it was fascinating but the language it use harder then i thought. this drama was very funny and interested. for me the first time watching it, it was awesome. this drama tell me about the group of nerd live in their ways. the plot of this drama make me learns how to appreciated friends and something given to me. i know it doesn't involve with this drama but it was what i fell, think,and born on my mind. so there are many more episode in this drama, i expecting something really fun and interesting from this drama.

the character i like the most is, no one than other, Sheldon. why? for me he had interesting and some unique characters that no one of his friends have. he the most handsome guy in their nerd group rather than the others. he has some ststraight forward characteristic that make him special.

moral in this drama, do not expecting something really big from some one, if what you expect far away from what you imagine, it will make you frustrated and irritating. so just be ready for what will coming toward us.

this story had a good and bad feedback on the plot. Nothing obviously stands out, there are lots of nice jokes of about the same quality. For simplicity I enjoyed Leonard leaning on his door as he watches Penny and David walk away. His leaning creates a slight knock and Sheldon soon opens the door sending Leonard crashing to the floor. “Did you forget your key?” in conclusion, As a Christmas episode this definitely contains the feel good factor but more than that it is the best episode this season. Combining character development and humor in a blend which this show can do really well.

(500) Days of Summer

INTRO

The film employs a nonlinear narrative structure, with the story based upon its male-protagonist and his memory-

driven look at a failed relationship

The film is presented in a nonlinear narrative, as it jumps from various days within the 500-day span of Tom and Summer's relationship, indicated by an animation that includes the day's number; this summary is a linear version of the events of the film.

On January 8, Tom Hansen meets Summer Finn, the new assistant to his boss. Tom trained as an architect but works as a writer at a greeting card company in Los Angeles. Following a karaoke night, Tom's friend and co-worker McKenzie reveals that Tom is attracted to Summer. During the next few months Summer and Tom grow closer, despite Summer's telling Tom that she does not believe in true love, and does not want a boyfriend.

Tom shows Summer his favorite spot in the city, which overlooks a number of buildings he likes, although the view is spoiled by parking lots. After several months of dating, Tom gets into a fight with a man who flirts with Summer, and they have their first argument. On day 290, Summer and Tom end their relationship after they see The Graduate, a film which Tom thinks shows true love. Tom does not take the breakup well, and Tom's friends call his younger sister, Rachel, to calm him down.

Summer quits the greeting card company. Tom's boss moves him to the consolations department, as his depression is not suitable for happier events. Months later, as Summer and Tom attend the wedding of a co-worker, they dance at the wedding and Summer catches the bouquet. They sit next to each other on the trip home, and Summer invites Tom to a party at her apartment. He attends the party, but leaves when he sees that Summer is wearing an engagement ring. Tom enters a deep depression, only leaving his apartment for alcohol and junk food. After a few days, he returns to work with a hangover and after an emotional outburst, quits his job. He decides to rededicate himself to architecture, makes a list of firms, and begins to attend interviews.

On day 488, Summer sees Tom at his favorite spot in the city, and they talk. Tom states his lack of understanding towards her actions. Summer explains that he was right about the existence of true love and that she discovered in someone else all the feelings she had never felt with Tom. Summer holds Tom's hand. She says she is glad to see Tom is doing well. As she leaves Tom tells her he really hopes she is happy.

Twelve days later, on Wednesday, May 23, he attends a job interview and meets a girl who is also applying for the same job. They talk, and Tom learns she shares his favorite spot and dislike for the parking lots. Before entering the interview, he makes a date to have coffee with her afterwards. He asks her name, and she replies "Autumn".

MORAL VALUE

for the first time viewer, they maybe think this story does not have any moral value. but honestly this story has their own moral such as, the spirit of main characters to rebuild his life after he broke up. The person you love isn't always going to love you back and You can't always get what you want.The one who loves more is the one who gets dumped. The film demonstrates the doomed nature of such a relationship surprisingly well. As this “season of love” draws to a close, a positive view of marriage and the real freedom that comes from an exclusive and committed relationship is explicitly spelled out by none other that the formerly flighty Summer.

BEST CHARACTER

the character i love the most is, absolutely tom Hansen. because he is the main character. he had through many love conflict in his life, but he still can stay with it even for the first time he get the shock and frustrated.he tried to forget his ex-lover, summer Finn until he found new love autumn.

CONCLUSION

(500) DAYS OF SUMMER tells the charming and quirky, yet surprisingly realistic, story about a boy who meets a girl, falls in love, and experiences heartbreak and self-discovery when he finds out the girl doesn’t feel the same. The story begins with Tom, an idealistic would-be architect turned greeting card writer, who falls in love with Summer, his boss’s beautiful new secretary. From the moment they meet, Tom is smitten and over the course of their 500-day relationship, Tom experiences the high of being young and in love, the heartbreak of being dumped, and the journey of self-discovery. it has some commendable elements, including its high production values and its positive affirmations of marriage. The artsy directing, strong performances, intelligent dialogue, and the creative elements used such as split screens, time jumps, a song and dance number, and illustrations are delightful to watch. They all work together to make the plot unfold splendidly well.

MY OPINION

I know this movie is a little old now but its about a guy who falls in love with this girl in his office called Summer. Then Summer breaks up with him and he is heart broken. If you've seen the movie, do you find either character annoying, boring or unattractive? I mean I just kind of find her an annoying aloof . The narrator starts by saying, "This is a story of boy meets girl. But you should know upfront, this is not a love story." I guess it's a more boy meets girl, boy falls in love, girl only wants to have sex, girl finds commitment with somebody else. But if you explained it in that way, why on earth would you want to watch it, right? We are told that the first time Tom meets Summer, he realises straight away that she is who he has been looking for. The two appear so perfect together, and I couldn't see the ending going any other way.The film shows a huge reversal of roles, possibly showing relationships in a more traditional way. Rom-coms usually focus on the male character as the dominant role in a relationship. They then end in the typical happily ever after ending. And that's why this film is so different. We see the female character only wanting to have a bit of fun, refusing commitment or wanting to label the relationship. I think the film also shows a more realistic nature of relationships. Tom believes at the start of the film that meeting Summer could only be explained by one thing - fate. By the end, he learns that Coincidence is all that anything ever is. There is no such thing as miracles, there is no such thing as fate and that nothing is meant to be. Relationships don't always end up the way we would hope and this film shows this so well. The narrator says that, "Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin and they end with no lasting memory between. Most days have no impact on the course of life." Tom comes to deal with Summer moving on and eventually meets a girl called Autumn. (how ironic!) I was disappointed that the two didn't get back together, but then I realised that the film wasn't filling my head with the false hope and unrealistic expectations of a typical rom-com.

THE POWER OF TIME

   Generally, when Time is discussed it is understood as movement, or change. The movement of the planets, the ticking of a clock as long as these things occur, there is Time. If they cease, Time also ceases. In other words, Time is no more than the occurrence of physical events.

   In this paradigm, once we accept the creation of heaven and earth, it is a simple conclusion that Time began then as well since Time is no more than the events of the cosmos. The fact that we cannot fathom an absence of Time is irrelevant. After all, neither can we fathom an absence of heaven and earth in other words, of space and matter. In this way Time is a creation with a beginning.

   There is, however, a deeper understanding of Time the essence of Time generally known as "immeasurable time."All science deals with the measurement of things. Indeed, it is a wondrous aspect of our universe that by measuring its phenomena we are able to calculate with some accuracy their outcomes.But there are several limitations to this ability of ours. Of course, there are the subjective limitations: the precision of the tools of measurement, the form of measurement chosen and even the consciousness of the subject who is measuring. Measurement is not really telling us directly about the phenomena we are measuring, but about the tools of measurement and our own relationship to them.But, most profoundly, even once we have all the measurements of any particular object, we still have not grasped that object itself. In other words, we can absorb and process information about the object, but our knowledge and the actual object remain distinct entities. Our measurements provide us with a working model to make limited predictions, but the only true model is the thing itself.Just as any object is not known in its essence by its measurement, so too with Time. Knowledge of change, movements, events -- these are all-measurements of Time. We could go even further: They are measurements of how things behave within Time. Time itself Essential Time is the parameter in which those events occur.

   The only true knowledge then, is the knowledge of the Creator, who knows the object from its inside out, since the object is entirely one with Him. 

   In this paradigm, Time is not dependent upon the existence of space and matter, but the converse: Any event presumes the existence of a continuum of Time in which that event occurs. In fact, we can even extend this to the primal event, the initial emergence of space and matter: To say that beforethere was nothing and then there was, already implies the existence of Time. Thus, Creation presumes Time, and not the other way around.

    This discussion on relative time and absolute time provides an excellent venue for discussion of a much larger issue: The necessity for interface between physics and metaphysics. Someone has demonstrated that science faces an impasse in developing a cosmology when relying on material empiricism alone. There is a need for "inside knowledge" essentially for the soul of the cosmos to speak for itself and reveal its true identity to Man. 

   On the other hand, revelation is also in need of rigorous science in order to provide tangible knowledge within the realm of common human experience. Without that tangibility, the mundane physical world and the world of the spirit remain alien to one another. In order to reach the times when "all flesh shall see" and the physical world itself will reveal its Maker, there must be a convergence of the received and empirical forms of knowledge.

this is the important of friendships.....
It's one thing to start a friendship, it's quite another to maintain it, to keep it, to stay on what we called "the same secret path." Even strong friendships require watering or they shrivel up and blow away. This is because I have had to neglect everything that could be neglected without immediate ruin, and partly because you have passed into the circle of intimate friends whose feelings one never dreams of considering."

   It's so easy to take good friends for granted. And in a sense, we should. Like a comfortable pair of gloves, old friends wear well. But friendships that suffer from busyness and overfamiliarity can't afford to be neglected too long. They need renewal. If you want and need to keep true friendship alive and well, please, consider and think over a list of the most important qualities offered to help you. Probably it will help you to understand why you and your best friend haven't called up for ages, why you're getting embarrassed while being asked "Whom are you going to have fun this weekend with? you may neglect your intimate friends from time to time, but if you fail to cultivate these qualities of loyalty, forgiveness, honesty, and dedication, you can't expect to keep true friends.
   loyalty is the quality that tops the list in survey after survey of what people appreciate most about their friends.it support that you always give to someone because of your feelings of duty and love towards them.
   As important as loyalty is, our friendships don't always have it. Enter forgiveness. Every friend you'll ever have will eventually disappoint you. Count on it. That doesn't mean that every offense of a friend requires forgiveness, some slights need only be overlooked and forgotten. Treat your friends as you do your pictures, and place them in their best light.
   Too many good relationships fade because some slight, real or imagined, cancels it out. Some people pout, brood, or blow up if their friend is not speedy enough in returning a phone call or if they are not included in a social event. They set such high standards for the relationship that they're constantly being disappointed. They can't let little things go, every minor lapse becomes a betrayal.
   By the way, forgiveness is a two-way street. Unless you are a saint, you are bound to offend - intentionally or unintentionally - every friend deeply at least once in the course of time, and if the relationship survives it will be because your friend forgives, the friends we keep the longest are the friends who forgave us the most. And the essence of true friendship is knowing what to overlook.
   Honesty is a prerequisite to the true friends' relationship. "Genuine friendship cannot exist where one of the parties is unwilling to hear the truth, and the other is equally indisposed to speak it. Does this require brutal honesty? Not exactly. It requires honesty that is carefully dealt in the context of respect. In the absence of respect, you see, honesty is a lethal weapon. Remove respect from friendship and you have taken away the most splendid ornament it possesses. Honesty is not only expressed in words, it means being authentic.
   True friends aren't afraid to be honest and they aren't afraid to be themselves. True friends  is "Better be a nettle in the side of your friend than his echo." that mean, If you are afraid of making enemies, you'll never have true friends.
  When was the latest you and your best friend met? Dedication refers to the ability of two people to influence each other's plans, thoughts, actions, and emotions, to spend time and effort on friendship, to give up something important or valuable for sake of friendship. Think about it.
   Back when you are a kid, the hours spent with friends were too numerous to count. Contemporary life, with its tight schedules and crowded appointment books, however, has forced most friendships into something requiring a good deal of intentionally and pursuit just to keep them going.
   Of course, dedication becomes most salient in times of crisis. When a friend's emotional bottoming out, for example, means canceling a date to provide a shoulder of support. That's what friends are for. So don't complain about having fair-weather friends if you are unwilling to be inconvenienced.
   Personal sacrifice. Selfless devotion. Commitment. These are the noble qualities dedication requires.

THE EFFECTS OF DIVORCE

by Amy Desai, J.D.

No couple goes into marriage thinking they will be the ones who won’t make it. Certainly, at your wedding, you thought you were promising a love that would last a lifetime. Now, for reasons you may not fully understand, that dream seems shattered.

As you try to understand the pain and determine what to do, divorce may look like an appealing way out. “After all,” you might reason, “life is full of second chances. Perhaps I simply married the wrong person, and Mr. or Mrs. Right is still out there somewhere.” You may think you were too young when you married, or that you never really loved your spouse. You just convinced yourself it would be better than being alone. Or maybe you are just tired of the arguing, tired of the lack of communication, tired of the coldness in your relationship. Perhaps you simply want out — period. Or maybe you are hoping against hope that your marriage can be salvaged.

Before you bail out of your marriage, look at what you’ll be diving into. Most people are not prepared for the challenges of post-divorce life.

How would divorce affect me?

Sherry and Rob tried to spare their children the details of their breakup. Their marital problems were further complicated by Rob’s affair with the secretary at the church he was pastoring. Without a college education, Sherry was forced to move back in with her parents, where she continues to live 12 years later. At one point, she attempted to recover the $100,000 in child support Rob hadn’t paid over time but was only able to get $18,500 — barely enough to pay a few of the bills that had been piling up.

Sherry’s story points out one all-too-real fact of divorce: Post-divorce families usually suffer financially. Studies show that women experiencing divorce face roughly a 30 percent decline in the standard of living they enjoyed while married and men show a 10 percent decline. The consistency of this finding caused one researcher to conclude: “However ‘prepared’ for marital disruption women increasingly may be, they are not prepared in ways sufficient to cushion the economic cost.” 1

And remember — that’s all after the fact. The divorce itself can be a financial hurdle. While some divorce proceedings are relatively inexpensive, the fees can soar. Each case will vary. Attorney John Crouch describes it this way: You can get [a divorce] for under $10,000 per spouse in lawyer fees if you’re lucky and if both the spouses and their lawyers are reasonable and fair. [This does not include what the divorce] does to the standard of living, [or] having to pay [child] support, [or] the expenses of visitation. But you really can’t predict [even] that. ... Either side can pull all kinds of stuff in court that just makes both the lawyers waste time until one client runs out of money. I just finished one case where they settled, but then the husband had to spend $70,000 just to enforce the settlement agreement! 2

But there’s more to life than money. There are many other areas where men and women are affected by divorce. With more than 30 years of research, we now know divorce seldom leads to a better life. Consider that:

• Life expectancies for divorced men and women are significantly lower than for married people (who have the longest life expectancies). 3
• A recent study found those who were unhappy but stay married were more likely to be happy five years later than those who divorced.4
• The health consequences of divorce are so severe that a Yale researcher concluded that “being divorced and a nonsmoker is [only] slightly less dangerous than smoking a pack a day and staying married.” ⁵
• After a diagnosis of cancer, married people are most likely to recover, while the divorced are least likely to recover,6 indicating that the emotional trauma of divorce has a long-term impact on the physical health of the body.
• Men and women both suffer a decline in mental health following divorce, but researchers have found that women are more greatly affected.7 Some of the mental health indicators affected by divorce include depression, hostility, self-acceptance, personal growth and positive relations with others.

(nuril's feedback)

on this articles...it shows us about the negative feedback about divorce.

so what we can do to get the positive feedback from this situation?

If you’re having trouble letting go:

There is life after this marriage As hard as it is to believe right now, one day this marriage will just be something you did once. You’ll go on and you’ll have what you create.Get out of denial and Ask yourself: Do you really want this marriage, or are you hanging onto it out of fear? If being alone is a scarier thought than staying in a broken marriage, you’re letting fear make your decisions. Are you mourning the loss of what your marriage was, or what you thought marriage would be? Don’t burn daylight-grieving doesn't have a time frame on it, but life does. Whether you realize it or not, life is marching on. There comes a time when you have to accept the fact and say, "I've got to get on with my life, I've got to get on with raising my children, I've got to get on with putting things together where I can be a happy, meaningful, productive member of society." Find a way to put one foot in front of the other and move forward. Take the catastrophic language out of your mind 

"My life is over," "I've lost everything," and "Things are horrible" are labels that can have a powerful impact on how you feel. Recognize that it’s factually not true. Your life isn't over, it’s just a new beginning for you. Changing the negative tapes that run in your head can change how you physically feel. Don’t waste time with regret At some point you have to say, "It is what it is." You can’t do anything about what you did before; but you can do a lot about what you’re doing now. Be an example for your children What kind of mom do you think your kids are experiencing when you’re sitting around and crying and looking over your shoulder at what was instead of what is? You've accepted it. Now it’s time to jumpstart your life!

Define a new relationship with your ex for your children.Your old relationship was husband and wife, your new relationship is as common allies of your children.Talk to your kids,Divorce can create emotional wounds in children. Talk to them about what’s going on, what they’re feeling, and how things will get better. Involve them. If they know there are things they can do to help this transition, it will give them a feeling of power.Make a plan Assess your situation financially, look at your resources to see what your options are in terms of housing, job and finances. Create a support squad 

Ask for help. People appreciate being asked for help. It’s a gift to them to allow them to be there for you. Create a support squad of your closest friends who won’t mind providing you with emotional support, professional guidance and ongoing inspiration. Realize that you’re not the first person to go through this. Get your resources and assets around you 

Do everything you can to program yourself for success. Find out what your strengths and skills are and focus on them to help move you in a new and positive direction. Everybody has a personal truth — what you believe about yourself when nobody’s watching. Remember that you will create the results in life that you believe you deserve.Make time for yourself 

Make a priority to be a little selfish and do something just for yourself. The most important gift you can give your children is to take care of their parents. Try a new class, start exercising, or reconnect with an old hobby you’ve forgotten about. 

Make your dream homesick not the end of the world if you have to change houses. Know that you and your kids are going to create memories there and that’s what makes it a dream home.Find your authentic self Although you may no longer be one half of a couple, you are still 100 percent the person who you are. Find that person again. Find your passion 

What is it that will make you excited to get out of bed every day? Make a list of what you can do to reach your goals. Have some joy with your kids Choose to live with some fun in your new life. Create new memories with your children that will carry them into the future with self-esteem, confidence and happiness.Protect yourself in the future 

It’s important to always look at a relationship and ask yourself, "What’s it costing me to be in this relationship?" If you totally lose yourself in it, then the cost is too high.
