The Big Bang Theory (also abbreviated as TBBT) is an American sitcom created by Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady, both of whom serve as executive producers on the show along with Steven Molaro. All three also serve as head writers. The show premiered on CBS on September 24, 2007.[4] The ninth season premiered on September 21, 2015.

The show is primarily centered on five characters living in Pasadena, California: Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper, both physicists at Caltech, who share an apartment; Penny, a waitress and aspiring actress who later becomes a pharmaceutical representative, and who lives across the hall; and Leonard and Sheldon's similarly geeky and socially awkward friends and co-workers, aerospace engineer Howard Wolowitz and astrophysicist Raj Koothrappali. The geekiness and intellect of the four guys is contrasted for comic effect with Penny's social skills and common sense.





How I Met Your Mother (often abbreviated to HIMYM) is an American sitcom that originally aired on CBS from September 19, 2005, to March 31, 2014. The series follows the main character, Ted Mosby, and his group of friends in Manhattan.

The series was created by Craig Thomas and Carter Bays, who also served as the show's executive producers and were frequent writers. The series was loosely inspired by their friendship when they both lived in New York City.[1] Among the 208 episodes, there were only four directors: Pamela Fryman (196 episodes), Rob Greenberg (7 episodes), Michael Shea (4 episodes), and Neil Patrick Harris (1 episode).
Known for its unique structure and eccentric humor, How I Met Your Mother has gained a cult following over the years. The show initially received positive reviews, while the later seasons received more mixed reviews.[2][3][4][5] The show was nominated for 28 Emmy Awards, winning nine. In 2010, Alyson Hannigan won the People's Choice Award for Favorite TV Comedy Actress.

Its series finale averaged nearly 10 million viewers (live+same day), which made that episode the most-watched series finale in Disney Channel's history.


The Magic of Fragrance

I have loved perfume since I was a little girl. Aside from their unique scents, I have always loved the packaging of perfumes. Dainty glass bottles that look so pretty on display in my living room, what's not to like?When purchasing a perfume I take into account how pretty it is and I know that's kind of silly but I can't help it!


Below you can read about some of my favorite perfumes (in no particular order)

Paco Rabanne Lady Million
Opening Top Notes: Sour Orange, Lemon, Orange Blossom Water, Raspberry
Heart Center Notes: Gardenia, Jasmine, Citrus Blossom
Deep Base Notes: Patchouli, Honey
I received this perfume last Christmas and it quickly became a scent that I wore daily. It is classified as Floral Woody Musk fragrance. I love the blend of soft and sensual, bright and fresh while the contrast of sweet and clean is so unique. This feels so luxurious on my skin and fills me with confidence. Lasting power is out of this world and will certainly be buying another bottle! If you like super feminine scents then this one perhaps isn't for you but if you love wearing a more masculine scent then I'd definitely recommend it.

Un Jardin Sur Le Nil Hermes
Opening Top Notes: Grapefruit,Carrot, Mango, Tomato
Heart Center Notes: Sweet, Hyacinth, Lotus Flower, Peony, Wetland Grass
Deep Base Notes: Iris, Musk, Incense, Labdanum, Cinnamon
I was deliberate when bidding 2008 manufactured Hermes perfume last weekend. I never smell that perfume and all I know it has fresh signature and moderate. When I won and get the perfumes I know I had take the right decision. It reminds me how I used to love perfumes. However I was very pleasantly surprised, its not something I would usually go for but I actually really like the fruity and a little petrichor tones to it and the bottle is beautiful!
 I believe in that soul mate comes up together with the same taste of fragrances. That is what happen to me and my husband who always fall in love with the same scents. We love the smell of Un Jardin Sur Le Nil Hermes.


Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb
Opening Top Notes: Bergamot, Tea
Heart Center Notes: Jasmine, Freesia, Orchid
Deep Base Notes: Centiflora Rose,Patchouli
Now to my all time favourite perfume! When I first heard of the name Flowerbomb I knew to give this one a miss. Full-on florals, which the name implies, are the one category I just don't do. A while later I smelled a dry/woody only slightly sweet fragrance on a colleague. It is kind of Great notes that makes it High Class and Feminine as it command attention. I love it, would highly recommend going to test this out for yourself because it really is a stunning scent.

Lets Take Look Inside My Make Up Essential



Never leave without make up. Even I am not a make up junkie still I keep my make up essential in my bag. The make up essentials is slightly different for everyone, of course, but there are some old standbys I always use to touch up my look. They're the basics that I do not want to be without also that I can justifiably spend some cash on, since they can make or break any look.

Here is products inside my make up bag. Lets start from compact powder, lip balm, and lotion:



Maybelline Dream Satin Skin Two Way Cake B1 Nude Beige


The Dream Satin Skin Two way cake is a powder foundation I can use either dry (to set liquid foundation) or with a damp sponge to get higher coverage. The powder has a soft, blended texture and but is not so soft/powdery that you end up with loads of fall out. The shade once again was a touch light for me and it really shows when I use it with a damp sponge because of the higher coverage. But I can get away using this powder to set my foundation in the center of my face. It gives light coverage, softens the look of pores (which most powders do) and matte though I am  sad to report the oil control over time is not impressive. Maybe on a more mattifying foundation, you won’t have much of an issue but over the Dream Satin skin liquid foundation, this does a poor job of keeping oil in check. Once again, this is not something I would recommend for oily skin but I do like the packaging. 


Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm

I essentially see this lip balm as an addiction. when I was using this product, I ended up needing it so often that I had to buy one for everything: my backpack, purse, my car, my desk, and bathroom. If I was ever without this lip balm for more than an hour my lips felt extremely uncomfortable and dry, and nothing else would help. I honestly just thought that I had weird, dry lips, especially every time I put lipstick on it- I thought this was the reason why I needed them so much. Now Burt's Bees is the only lip balm I will buy. I was a bit surprised at the (almost buttery) scent, but I ended up growing on me. 

M&S Sparkling Lemon Verbena Moisturising Hand & Nail Cream 50ml

They said I will experience daily luxury with our Nature's Extracts collection. It will moisturize hand and nail cream enriched with extract of lemon verbena will help hydrate even the busiest hands, leaving them soft and delicately scented. Actually I felt this cream only temporary and I prefer pure coconut oil. However I have not meet yet a coconut oil in pretty packaging so I still need this cream that will do my skin the extra favor of protecting it against sun and air conditioner damage.


Lets move to lipstick !
For me, Lipstick is more opaque, and tends to stand out more than lip gloss (although that depends a lot on color choice). It comes in a huge array of colors still only certain colors that match your skin tone especially my lips tone. Brownish pinks, soft pinks, and beige lipsticks are the best accents for lighter skin like me but my lips are too pigmented so I need a light red lipstick to cover it.
“Put on some red lipstick and live a little.” —Dita Von Teese
Talking about different lipstick textures I choose creamy and moisturizing lipsticks with a little bit matte look. Glossy lipstick will never work on me. I used to mix both this lipstick to create a little pinkish color on my lips.




Maybelline Colorshow Lipstick – Firecracker Red #202

Whoa! Am blown away by the shade honestly. What a lovely mix of orange and red! It is really bright shade which brightens the face immediately and makes me look more awake. A beautiful shade which makes the flaws appear less and gives healthy radiant glow to the complexion.One swipe and I am good to go. Covers all pigmentations on one swipe. The intensity can be built up on applying 2-3 coats and still feel comfortable in it.



Wet n Wild Mega Last Coraline #909D

The shade is a medium coral-red with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. This color was very flattering and face-brightening on me. Based on the name, I expected this to be more coral, but this turned out to be more red, much closer to tomato red, than a true coral. I think I need to repurchase for purty persimmon to get my expected coral. It will look better on my lips.

Okay, enough for my make up essential. What about you? I can not wait to hear from you !

#StripesForLove



When a child is diagnosed with a serious illness or injury the world stops in an instant; nothing matters but healing that child. To get the best specialist medical care for their child, a family must often travel far from home and stay for weeks, months or even years. During this difficult time, families not only struggle to support their sick child; they have to care for their other children, keep their jobs, pay bills, and maintain some degree of normal family life.

 And while we may not be able to make the medicine taste better or erase the pain of a much-needed treatment, still we can help lessen the burden for nearly nine million families each and every year. However,
Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) believe when you change a child’s life, you change a family’s, which can change a community and, ultimately, the world.

Since 1974, their network of local Chapters have been making children happier and healthier by keeping families together – giving them a place to rest and refresh. A place that feels like home. These programs, tailored to meet the urgent needs of each community, can now be found in more than 62 countries and regions across the globe.

Now,  RMHC is corporate with Rumah Sakit Cipto Mangunkusumo (RSCM)  in Salemba and RS Fatmawati to support the childern. They also have Ronald McDonald Care Mobile. You can also support this campaign #StripesForLove RMHC, simply by:
