Tak Pe Je

Assalamu'alaikum. Dulu aku ada buat entry SINI pasal baiki sofa, lama dah. Kali ni kita cerita pasal baiki kusyen kerusi makan pulak. Sini aku share gambar dan video. Selebihnya boleh jenguk kat blog The Escapade @ Setiawangsa .  Bibik buat dengan aku je, macam biasalah.. ramai2 tak guna jugak kalau takat nak guna wifi laju 30mbps kat homestay tu, kan?  Lepas dah jahit kemas, confirm korang akan rasa seronok dan puas hati bila tengok hasilnya, percayalah! ~ Nai at Tak Pe Je.

Jemput singgah blog baru kita, The Escapade @ Setiawangsa.   Takde la semua nak longgok dalam takpeje.blogspot ni ha, kita buat port baru senang nak fokus intipati yang menjurus kepada bisnes homestay dan tajuk-tajuk yang berkait rapat dengannya. Jenguk kat sini pun boleh jugak, kita transit yang membawa anda tempat yang serupa... You are cordially invited to show the new blog some love.... ~ Nai at Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu’alaikum. Kami selama ni kenal di alam maya saja, tak pernah bersua muka, dah bertahun-tahun lamanya. Dari dia masih kuliyah sampailah dah kerja, dari dunia blog (KLIK SINI ) ke facebook dan instagram, akhirnya baru-baru ini kami diizinkan Allah untuk bertemu empat mata. Alhamdulillah... silaturrahim dipanjangkan. Dari Acheh dia datang, bercuti ke Thailand dan singgah di Kuala Lumpur. Bonda masakkan nasi Arab fusion signature dish perayaan, khas untuk menyambut tamu istimewa. Ikut rencana asal, Nissa akan datang bersama dua lagi sahabatnya tapi takdir hanya menghantarnya sendirian ke Setiawangsa. Seronok tengok dia makan, tak takut untuk mencuba kulinari tempatan. Kari kambing, sambal tumis sotong, acar timun, sambal belacan dijodohkan dengan nasi Arab, semuanya dia sucihati cuba menikmati.  Terkilan sangat, aku tengah teruk menanggung migraine masa tu, sepatutnya boleh lebih dimanfaati masa bersama. Nasib baik Nissa peramah dan tidak kekok berbual mesra deng...

Assalamu'alaikum. Aritu aku tengok dalam Instagram sorang fellow blogger, Nykolette, dia ada buat macam-macam jenis pouch dan kit. Sekali bila ternampak makeup pouch yang boleh kelek segala macam mak nenek berus, aku tak tunggu lama, terus mintak beli. Bukannya aku jenis mekap beriya pun nak kena ke hulu ke hilir dengan segerombolan berus dan mekap, tapi aku memang tak display berus-berus tu atas meja ataupun kat tempat yang terdedah. Sebabnya, tanahair aku yang tercinta ni sarat dengan debu dan muka aku tersangat sensitif dengan debu, bad combo! Aku simpan berus-berus tu dalam makeup kit khusus, letak dalam meja ataupun almari. Walaupun tak diperlukan setiap ketika mahupun setiap hari, tetap menda-menda tu aku simpan begitu, dikeluarkan bila nak pakai bedak kat rumah je pun. Kawan-kawan berus yang digunakan untuk sapu bedak tu pulak, jarang-jarang sangat berfungsi. Ye lah, dulu pakwe aku tak tegur apa-apa pasal mekap, tapi bila aku dah start ikut tutorial kat you.tube dan apply t...

Assalamu'alaikum. I have been writing this 'journal' a.k.a blog called Tak Pe Je to keep me sane, basically, you know, that kind of feeling that you have got to write about anything and nothing at all. And in so doing, I have come across a few people who gradually became my acquaintances either in facebook or instagram or whatsapp or any combination thereof, if not all the three mediums, but of course. I remember when I was in Paris a few years back, Shay had made a point to meet me up and showed me around, you know, like a hostess. That's why when I saw Ifrah's instagram post capturing some KL view, I was amazed and immediately offered to at least have a cuppa coffee, why, she's in my city! (Check out her blog, Idziher !). Amidst her hectic schedule, we managed to meet affer all, alhamdulillah. Yeah, I'm as bubbly as much  as she is, so we had no problem clicking, you know. She kept telling me how different tea was in KL that she had to live with...

Assalamu'alaikum. Tahun lepas kan, Elly ada kasi aku hadiah tudung, aku rasa dia dah confirm tak ingat. Usahkan dia, aku pun termenung kejap bila terjumpa tudung ni masa kemas-kemas barang lepas pindah aritu. Akhirnya aku tanya Bibik, kot2 la tersalah letak tudung orang dalam kotak aku, tapi katanya kawan aku yang bagi dulu. Aku bawak bertenang dan cuba flashback pelan-pelan, siapa la yang baik hati sangat bagi hadiah tudung ni? 15 minit gak la aku menerawang ke ruang angkasa Gaban mencari sejalur cahaya. Oooo... Elly la bagi!  Aku dah lupa sempena apa dia bagi, tapi kalau tak silapnya, sekali dengan hadiah menang teka gambar handbag dalam blog dia. Bukan apa, aku time tu banyak sangat masalah dunia sampai tak terkejar tak cukup kaki tangan dagu mulut mata segala. Kena pulak kemas barang-barang seisi rumah sebab nak pindah, maka duk selempang mana-mana shawl ataupun instant hijab kat depan mata. Ulang pakai yang sama selagi sesuai.   Bila dah makin te...

Assalamu'alaikum. So aku menang teka-teki, ada ko baa? Hehehhe. Best sebenarnya perasaan menang ni, semua orang pun akan teruja: kira macam 'living the moment' punya feeling. Tak kisahlah menang teki-teki (je) pun, janji menang. Dah namanya menang, mesti dapat hadiah kan? Haaa... Itulah yang best jadi makin tambah best nya! Dan lebih-lebih lagi kalau hadiah tu kita boleh manfaatkan untuk kegunaan bersama, dapat pahala pulak kat kita dan Kat orang yang bagi. Alhamdulillah... Terima kasih sangat-sangat Elly , aku dah jadikan kain biru bling-bling tu alas meja favorite aku kat rumah. Dekat dengan beskal statik kaler merah aku. Dekat dengan hati ini pastinya. Si Elly ni memang suka buat teka-teki, pasal bunga la, buah-buahan la, ulam-ulaman la, kira macam flora & fauna punya kategori. Aku bukan reti meneka-neki ni semua, tapi kalau sempat singgah blog dia dan kebetulan ringan jari, aku jawab la. Betul ke idok ada aku kesah? Heheheh. Yang penting, memeriahkan majlis...

Label: Wordless Wednesday  ~ Nai at Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu'alaikum. So we ended our virtual status finally at a luncheon yesterday after so many failed attempts due to unmatched schedules. What a wonderful time it was to meet Sister Saniah , whom I met in this humble blog of mine a few years ago. We even went to Daiso together after catching up at my fave hang-out place, Starbucks. Thank God I could actually squeeze some time before my next appointment of the day at Asam Pedas after 6pm.  I wish both of us happiness and joy and may Allah Be With Us, blessing our future undertakings. Same goes to you as well, dear friends. Do take care and have a good day ahead. To all my Hindu friends, Happy Thaipusam. Thanks for dropping by. Assalamu'alaikum. - Nai at Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu'alaikum. We did actually meet in person finally, pheww..! After a few unmatched dates of our tight schedules, hers in particular, that is. She keeps saying that I am humble but little that she knows, she has humbled me to see how humble she is despite who she is and what she has. I'm glad we think alike in so many ways, especially in relation to families and friends and career and passions. She's called ELLY and pictures don't do her justice for she's way a looker in person.   We are both speckies, which is common in our professions actually and strangers would even think we're related by blood, I guess. Well, at least from my point of view. Anyhow, never mind the delay Elly, it wasn't your fault and it didn't bother me at all for you had taken all the troubles to come down from Bangi in the first place, remember? Let's hope to see more of each other in near future, may Allah Grant our wishes and dreams and good luck to us!  Yo...

Assalamu'alaikum. So I was in Paris for 3 days and had the chance to meet a fellow blogger and instagramer, Shay there. It was like a dream, really. She walked us to the nearest cafe for a nice cup of coffee and we didn't have trouble at all finding the right way as it would have been otherwise without her. Born and raised in Paris, this Moroccan by blood is a babe in every possible way. Despite the wide apart age difference, we clicked in no time at all. That's what fellow bloggers are meant to be, don't you think? We have in fact connected long before we actually meet in person, you know that kinda obvious fact.  She then walked me to the nearest Zara and H&M and helped me choose a pullover and a brown PVC jacket. Well, sometimes you just need another girl to nod to your preference, right? (Ehemm!). And if you look closely, she too was wearing a PVC jacket underneath the cardigan. Anyways, time flew so fast and we didn't have much time to spend for sh...

Assalamu'alaikum. This entry is specially meant to showcase what sis Azian Elias (YAN) had given me during our brief yet memorable get-together last week. So without further ado, here goes:  1- A silk shawl from Vietnam. The color is a darling, what more the fabric itself and I can't help falling in love with the shawl every minute of the day. I have no problem at all lining the shawl with a sheer underneath, for both fabrics are still very pleasantly smooth against my skin and cotton kurung. I used to have a hijab of very similar color back then when I was 16 years young and wore it for my first passport sized photos. Even used that photos for university application forms. So when I first saw this shawl that sis Yan has given me, I was so darn happy!  2- A pouch with embroidered bikini from Kashmir (or was it Vietnam, kinda forgot..) This one I'm planning to keep as it is and don't have the heart to use as a pouch. Not just yet, that is. Sayan...
