So before I begin, let's get one thing clear.
I'm a pillow girl.
I'll tell you that much straight up.
Always have been, always will be.
I'm the kind of girl who likes buying pillows, who loves hugging pillows, who go everywhere at work with a pillow in hand, and who sleep with a LOT of pillows. It's always been that way. And that way's not gonna change no matter what.
It's not for mere aesthetics. I NEED many many pillows to sleep. My top pillow count at any one point in my life was 13 pillows sleeping with me each night, on a small, super-single bed. (Yeah, I was really hardcore back then.)
And then I moved down to KL
to pursue my studies.
Two beds mean less pillows on one bed
but MORE pillows collectively. Heh heh.

Still not clear enough?
Let's number them.

H-e-r-e.
Cos, wait. I'm not finished. I've got spares, too!!! Haha.
Check out my secret stash of pillows and blankets.

I kinda liked the numbering thingy I did before so let's do that again. (I'm lying. It just gives me reason to mess around with my Bamboo. =p)
Think I'm done? Not quite.
The math?
Deep Red Original Cushioned Seat
+ Yellow Cottage Tie-On Cushion
+ El' Cheapo Da TESCO Impulse Buy
= Very Comfy Behind + Very Happy Pam

So there you have it. My pillow stash in KL. Not bad, huh? Now, I've got 6 pillows in Penang, and 11 pillows-slash-cushions (minus the one that came with the roller chair, of course) in KL. 6 + 11 = 17. Yay. My collection grew (though I threw 3 pillows away just 2 months ago when I shifted to my new place). But but but... 6 pillows on a queen-sized bed as opposed to 13 on a super-single is a significant decrease in number. That's a 54% decrease in a condition of increased pillow-placing space, wei! I've already toned down considerably.
It's all a matter of comparative perspective.
*grin*
*grin*
So, why the lengthy introduction? (Yes, that was just my intro to the post.) Well, I needed to establish the importance of pillows in my life. And since I spend a little over two-thirds of my day at the office, you should be well aware that I also NEED pillows to accompany me while I work... and even when I don't work. Heh heh.
I keep a pillow at the office for emergency cat-nap sessions. You know, the kind of naps that come in handy after a heavy lunch or a late night before. But one pillow isn't enough for a pillow freak like me! Problem is, any more than one is considered 'unprofessional' by official Pillows-at-the-Office standards. I didn't want Big Man Boss to start looking at me weird so, I had to device a plan to help me have make-shift pillows I can use without negatively tipping the 'unprofessional' scale.
That's where Chipster's comes in.
It's the perfect make-shift pillow!

See.
See.
Some days, I also use the Double-Brace Chipster Pillow.
It's 'spongy-er'... so that plus-point kinda makes up for
this pillow's lack when it comes to the 'discreet' department.
See.
Sometimes when I really look like crap (i.e. Monday mornings), or when I'm suddenly feeling a little more shy-shy than usual, I use one Chipster pack as the brace and another one as a make-shift shade to keep out the glaring office lights.
And see...
On days when I'm feeling a little more courageous (or just totally fed-up with things), I just get comfy on my desk and turn up the lazy tunes on my comp.
See...
See...
See...
See...
See...
One Chipster for a pillow and another that acts as a funky, yet highly-effective saliva drainage system!!! Note the saliva collection cup that's strategically placed at the base of the Hot & Spicy Chipster pack. No more peta dunia for me! Wheee!
So, be sure to bring a pack of Chipster potato chips (or two) along with you no matter where you go if you're planning to hit the sack. Just take my word for it. Why? Cos I sleep better with Chipster's... especially when I'm at the office. *grin*
