Watch out Airpods, There's a New Type of Headphone In Town

There are so many ways to listen to music now that it is hard to find what is best for you. Whether it be earbuds, Air pods, over the ear headphones, regular headphones, there are too many options to choose from. One that I recently came across was the Bose sunglasses that built-in speakers.

After reading the reviews, I have been learning that they are still working on figuring out how to best size the glasses. The Alto option is the classic boxy look that allows for them to be the go-to choice for many of the buyers. The reviews revealed, however, that they seem to be too big for most people's heads to the point that they begin to start slipping down their nose as they are talking.

The other option, the Rondo frames, seemed to be what people ended up getting once they realized the Alto was too big for their head. They are a more retro look but seemed to look great on most head shapes. The customers say that the sound is amazing for being so small and discreet. Some of the reviews did say that others around them could hear the music, but others say that no one around them can hear the music at all. I guess it would probably depend on how loud you are playing the music as to whether people would be able to hear what you are listening to.

Overall, I can see these being a great gift for someone (or yourself!) who loves music. On the website it states that be battery life can last up to 3.5 hours of playing music and the Bluetooth range is 30 feet. It also states that the lenses are tinted in order to block up to 99% of the UVA/UVB rays. I am very excited to see these glasses and others like them to start taking the audio listening market by storm.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
