...so I should probably invest in these noise-canceling headphones. I borrowed a friend's a few months ago and they were pretty good, not amazing. David Pogue from the NY Times reviewed 10 different types, and put them up against the super expensive Bose ones, and found that these, which go for under $150, were basically just as good! I am not going to put a picture, because, you know, it's a picture of headphones. They all look essentially the same. Picture some dorky, big headphones. Yep that's what they look like. But if you want to read the whole review article here, I'm not going to stop you.
