Assalamu’alaikum. Let’s take a moment and be grateful for today, shall we? The fact that we are still breathing is an achievement by itself, for which we should be thankful before anything else in the entire world. I guess that’s why today is called the “PRESENT”, very deservingly so, if I may add. It is a present to all of us, without really knowing that we tend to even forget it all together, let alone counting it as a blessing.  Now that we know, let us never ever forget to start our day with embracing the present the way it should. Live in the moment, try to move on from the past and don’t worry too much about tomorrow. If you haven’t already, it’s time to unbox yours today!  ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.  

Assalamu’alaikum. Now that we’re in a new norm world and in constant in need of masks almost all the time, it’s just twice as normal to have them everywhere in the house, office, bags, cars and what not. And one thing for sure, it’s not always smooth to pick one out of the plastic due to the tangled straps. It might be just me who would be impatient to disentangle this kinda thing, though. But in case you find it useful, how about storing the masks in the car tissue holder?  Now you won’t run out of available masks each time you’re on the go, just pick one with ease. Just grab and go, what a beautiful start of the day! Especially for those who tend to always forget and accidentally leave their masks at home or you-name-it where else.  Come to think of it, let’s also repurpose some tissue boxes at home or office for the same usage, now don’t we? I’m gonna it now and share with you guys later. Meanwhile, have a nice weekend!  ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.  

Assalamu’alaikum. Do you guys love caps? Well I used to be obsessed with them that I collected quite a number over the years. Now that it has gotten way too hot out there, I guess it’s perfect to bring back old style of mine, which is much easier with instant hijab like this. Of all the caps I normally take out to play, I love this one the most. It has somewhat worn out, but that doesn’t stop me from favoring it still because I’m loyal like dat!  What a world we’re living in now, right? I can’t even begin to imagine when would we be free from this virus. Meanwhile, let’s stay safe ok! See you next time, bye for now. Assalamu’alaikum. ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu’alaikum. Hi there, guys.. hope you’re doing great wherever you are reading this post from. Today I’m gonna write about transition of formal outfit into something more smart casual, hijabi style. Malaysia is a tropical country where it’s mostly hot, if it’s not hotter or hottest (apart from rainy seasons when the heat pauses, somehow or rather). So if your line of work requires a full set of blazer and matching pants or skirts, for that matter, this post would serve you good.  In my case, it’s almost impossible to stay clad in the same formal attire the entire day unless I’ll be spending every minute in a heavily air-conditioned premise. So whenever I need to run here and there out in the summer heat, I would rather change into something roomier and breezier, if you know what I mean. Even if I might still wear the same blouse, hijab and socks the whole day, the blazer and its matching skirt won’t linger, not a chance!  Entered the striped baggy pants a.k.a palazzo, then you’re

Assalamu’alaikum. In the end we all are going to be memories for some people, if not everyone, that is.  Wouldn’t it be lovely if we after all remain pleasant even in those memories? So much so that it might bring tears of joy and not of sorrow when we pop up in their memories every now and then. Better still, why not become a legacy?  I guess that’s why they would put it “in loving memories of so and so” once we’re no longer around. Live a life in such a way that we would leave behind fond and valuable memories, that we would eternally blossom in the hearts of our loved ones. Because the memories remain. ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.

“Jika seseorang hadir hanya untuk singgah, hidangkanlah kopi bukannya hati” Bincangkan. Jika seseorang hadir menjenguk Sekadar melepaskan lelah Bertenggek di pintu waktu Hanya untuk singgah Berteduh di hujung rindu Hidangkanlah secangkir kopi Pemanis bicara Simpanlah hati diam sendiri Terkunci dalam senda Kerana dirimu begitu berharga Hanya untuk dijadikan sandaran Pelepas sepi cuma!  ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu’alaikum. Let us just keep telling ourselves to go on kicking off day by day, every step of the way regardless of how small that may be. Even a little tiny baby step does matter, that’s what we call a progress still so just keep moving. We have come this far to give up, there’s no other place to go but the front gate of a higher level. Consider it unlocked, once we set our bodies hearts minds and souls to hit that start button!  But first, never skip breakfast unless we’re fasting. Laksam with latte might not be too fusion to be confused about, it’s a celebration of how a good morning should be, albeit how rare it is really. Just because! And if takes us another cup of latte before lunch much later at 12.30pm, why not? Life is too short to cut short caffeine, but oh please watch our sugar intake! And not to forget plain water the whole day as per our individual requirements. And the biggest thing(s) we have to cut prior to everything else in this world are that damn big fat exc

Assalamu’alaikum. How have you guys been holding up by far? Things, time and tide seem to be moving a little bit too quickly lately, so yeah please be safe while trying not to stumble too much along the way! But then again, if you have become a butterfly please just spread your wings and fly away, dear friends, just you fly!  But first, let it be coffee! Thereafter, just you fly! ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu’alaikum. Selamat Tahun Baru, korang! Alhamdulillah kita masih lagi bernafas di bumi bertuah ini, walaupun ada yang terpaksa bergelumang dengan lumpur terutamanya di Hulu Langat, Kelang, Puchong dan sekitar Shah Alam. Taburan hujan 1:1 abad ini sangat mencabar keimanan dan ketahanan fizikal mental, rata-rata kita terkesan bak dilambung tsunami. Mana yang kita mampu bantu, sama-samalah menyumbang, ok guys? Ujian hidup kita beza-beza, mana nak sama tapi ikut mana sekalipun kita wajib berjuang selagi bernyawa. Jihad  paling utama adalah mempertahankan diri sendiri, jadi kalau ditakdirkan kita perlu berperang untuk hidup, berperanglah! Kerana adinda juga di medan perang, bukan di medan seni semata-mata. Kanda di medan selera ke Medan Mara ke Medan Indonesia?  ~ Nai @ Tak Pe Je.
