Tak Pe Je

Assalamu'alaikum. So, it's Thursday and a day before the week ends. I didn't really do much at the office today other than monitoring and coaching, that is. Then off I went to pick my friend up at 2.30 pm and we did a business lunch together. I really look forward to doing this upcoming assignment with her yet again coz together we by far have proved to be quite a team, Insya Allah..     Before I even took the stairs up to the office, I made a point to drop by at Alice's to have my glasses duly fixed. I think I must have fallen asleep with the glasses on one of these days, for they seem to be somewhat uncomfortable to wear. Alice said I looked 'purplish' today, which I think due to the purple pashmina and the pink blouse that I wore and the purple handbag that I carried along. Her remark somehow led me to think that we should outstand our world with colors of the rainbow even if we're trapped in a colorless world. In the end it's our heart that ...

Assalamu'alaikum. It's really great to see a great movie a thousand times more, don't you think? And as a hopeless romantic, I would love to recommend Audrey Hepburn's classic, Breakfast at Tiffany's. I just never get tired of that movie, really. Cuteness..!     This song, Moon River is also such a beautiful masterpiece. Of all the versions available, I still prefer this one. The original one. Hope you would like it as well if you haven't already.  - Nai at Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu'alaikum. Monday night I got a present from my sis, a maxi shawl with pink backdrop and abstract print. It was a love at first sight, really and I didn't wait any longer to wear it (but of course). So the following day I went to the office putting that very shawl on. The color combination is so soft that I felt like splashing the look of the day with striking green blouse. Electrifying to the mood, really.  Then after looking at the selfie afterwards, I noticed that the clock behind my desk was dead. It was 5.30 in the evening and it showed 7.35 and I have no idea how long it has been dead already. Gotta replace the battery, if that's the problem but replace the whole thing if that's not the case. Thank God it only cost me RM5 at the Ikea.  There goes nothing, really. Thanks anyway for keep coming back, love you loads! Until next time, Assalamu'alaikum. - Nai at Tak Pe Je.

Assalamu'alaikum. It's been awhile since I last chaffeured Junior to and fro school. It felt great, really. So great that I had arrived at the school compound almost 45 minutes earlier, can you imagine? Hahaha. And it wat so hot a day that you can see clearly reflection of some objects on my shades. Wonder what it was, aircond holes or something? And the fact that the outfit from the neck downwards was somewhat over exposed by the ray, evidently hot.  I waited and waited but the boy never turned up, even after it was due. Then I decided to get out of the car and looked for him, with obvious look of concern. He spotted me and almost screamed, "Mummy!"  - with apparent guilt on his face. He was holding an ice-cream, but of course!  I felt sad for I knew he had been very patient not to eat any ice-cream due to his ongoing cough and at the same time due to the fact that I knew for certain his cough would get even worse. Aduhai, anak..!  He was unusua...

Assalamu'alaikum. I was just viewing my FB and noticed that my former high school mate had tagged some friends on some particular cotton fabrics. And I just couldn't help ordering a few myself, showing her some love and plus, they really caught my eyes! I just can't wait to send them to my tailor in kampung for my three new modern kurungs. Or may be a combination of old school kurung pesak. Let's just see how things go, ya..! And as you can see, all of them are very feminine and somewhat English-theme, kinda. I'm not very into floral printed fabrics, really except for cotton kurungs. So,  i'm super excited to get jiggy with them..! This soft bluish grey is really a darling! And this one really reminds me of vintage English tea set or bon china, for that matter. As for this one, it's about the stunning backdrop from the very beginning. Awesome! But wait, there's more! Only that this one belongs to my maid, who appa...

Assalamu'alaikum. Junior has been having occasional problem with his left ear since he was 7 years young, more or less. The first time ever was due to the remaining of cotton bud stucked inside, thanks to my then maid and eversince that I have forbidden any non-family member from cleaning his ears. Most of the time it would be me, actually.  Recently I brought him there after some time and it turned out alright, Alhamdulillah. The ENT specialist just cleansed the debris of his left ear and he was good to go. He said that there's nothing much can be done except for constant cleaning every now and then. That if Junior is proven to be allergic to seafood, simply don't take any. I hated the answer and refused to settle for it, would rather try alternative treatment, homeopathy most probably.  It's quite disturbing to think that Junior will be undergoing the same procedure every now and then. Do pray for him, dear friends.  - Nai at Tak Pe Je.
