EARPLUGS dedicated to my next door blogger
Yep. I bought a pair of them. I now wear them all the time. Everywhere. Yesterday, I walked to Beano's (worst coffee ever), and I wore them. It was fun. I could hear nothing but my breathing. It sounds really nasty. All the outside world seemed to me like watching a movie on mute. For some reason, I saw everything in slow motion. It was good.
I never thought I would buy ear-plugs. But here I am. Buying and wearing them in public. I wear them at work too. It filters all the unneeded sounds and voices you dont want to hear. It makes you focus on yourself. Make you KNOW that you are alive. Breathing. Breathing for yourself not for others. The best part is when you burb, talk to yourself, swallow your saliva, your stomach roars, all these sounds get amplified, and they are entertaining. Breathing sound is really important. Indication to the state. Try it.
My point is, 'Welcome to my world.' There are lots going on inside and we do need to listen. This body is screaming for attention, so please give it its pleasure, attention and love it.
(Ah, if you have 'vibration' in your cell. Do that. The best option that goes with the earplugs.)

Didn't hear your inside though.
BTW, I don't know what my mobile sounds like. Always on vibra! This ear plugs thing would suit me well. I need to try my breathing mask again to go along with it.
I plug my ears with my headphones at work because I can't stand the noise, the consistent reminder that I have to share so much space with so many human beings.
And yes, with earplugs/muffs on, you become the center of the universe.
Plus earplugs work for short-temper people like myself. If someone said something nasty to me, at work specifically, I just pretend I didnt hear, and smash his head later.
Mo, where you the guy wearing a grey sweater and sitting near the window and holding a knife! Boy, you looked so depressed.
Sounds like we will start a new cool trend!
Anyways, I think you just started a new meme. I guess I will have to try and see what will 2moro feel like with earplugs.
Anyways, a nice idea that of the earplugs.. But it just triggered something in my mind.
It gave me the thought that people don't appreciate what they have except when they lose it. I won't have said that except after experiencing that myself.
It's not actually me who lost my hearing ability, but it's someone in my family.. And I can tell you how much pain that problem is causing him.
Some people are using earplugs, others are using ear pieces to be able to hear.
Weird humans, aren’t we?!!
"I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant."
Works very well.
Someone wants to wear an earplug, what does this have to do with 'not appreciating' what I have.
I was just thinking out loud.. that was it :)
Buy an iPod - that's what Apple made them for. And I mean, judging by the attire I've read about here (khakis and t-shirts and grey sweaters, and Beanos (where's Costa)), iPods are right up everyone's alley. I'm too proud to give in to Apple, although if I got it for my birthday, I sure wouldn't mind.
Besides - if you don't want to listen to music, stick the slick white earphones in without the slick white box with the slick rotary dial Apple stole from Synaptics (ok, commissioned).
I'm sorry...I'll take this rant back to my blog. I'm having a creative block and thought I'd troll.
...mumble...mumble.
I have Apple. It is my favourite. I cant stand--what is the other brand?--it is too Adamie for my taste.
A pair of those with an Ipod. You are in a different world.
Nothing bothers me more than bad coffee I hate it!

If u kindly tell me how to get these earplugs, it'd be truely appreciated.
U know I live outside Cairo & I tried hard to find them here in my town but in vain..:(
So where did u get them from??
You can get these earplugs from almost any pharmacy in cairo. I got mine from a nearby pharmacy in Zamalek. I am sure Seif, or 'ali et 'ali have them. Mine were the cheapest ones. Just plastic with a thread joining them. There are more fancy ones at Seif's pharmacy.
Hard for me to imagine that you cant find them in your town. What is the name of your town? What do you do there? I am just curious to know what people who live outside cairo do?
I live in Fayoum... I suppose ppl here don't feel like plugging thier ears. They kinda enjoy the noise upto an amazing extent..:D
