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.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
