Since I started my new job back in april, I was first having a 30 minute walk.  Now that I’ve moved to my new place I still have a 15 to 20 minute marta ride.  So either way, I’ve been listening to my mp3 player everyday on the way, whereas before I really rarely used it.

I used to have a pair of Nike behind-the-head headphones.  The earbuds on those were hard plastic and hurt my ears, really a waste of money.

Then I picked up a pair of Koss or Joss or something earbuds on amazon that were really cheap.  While owning them, I thought they were fine — though I did think the sound was a little muted and kind of sounded closed off.

Well those broke after about a month or so, and I decided to step it up and get a pair of Sennheiser CX-300B Earbuds, as the reviews for those were a lot better.  Compared to my previous earbuds these are amazing.  The sound clarity is hands down better, the bass response is much stronger and the highs are crisp and clear.  Plus they feel really solid in my ears, and came with three different sized silicon plugs for different sized ears.  I can jog in them and they never come out, they’re great.

Only downside is that the cord itself is a little on the short side.  I haven’t encountered an actual problem yet with using them and they wouldn’t reach, but I would if they were any shorter at all.  Just don’t expect to sit on your couch and plug them into a reciever on the other side of the room.

Plus, they work on iPhones/iPods straight out of the box, don’t need an adapter or anything.

I paid $38 for them last month… and for some reason they are selling for $19 now.  What the hell!

I don’t think anyone ever actually walks all the way down to the end of this platform.  It was kind of eerie.

I put on my shoes to trudge out in it, as Hobbes the Cat lay curled in the blankets,
blinking sleepily, waiting for the lights to be turned off once more.
