i think i am THE nemesis of earphones/headphones. have managed to spoil two over the month. one is the original white (now it is not so white) earphones that came with my ipod. the right side became a lil fuzzy, you can still hear the songs but with a fuzz. buzzzz. which can be irritating.

so i decided to switch to my sennheiser headphones. this is a simple one, not those noise-canceling type. actually earlier this year, i found out the the plastic casing covering the wires had broken and the wires were peeking out. this is near the plug. oh well. what the heck. so i taped it with masking tape in case wires break. alas. after using the headphones for 2 weeks or so, it decided to give up on me. i suppose some wires are gone, so no sounds at all on the left side now.

i remembered breaking the sony which i loved.

have another panasonic one in the office.normal looking ones. one side gone too. but luckily i only use one side.

oh well.

sister said she has an extra one for me. so i don't have to buy any. for now.

heavy usage i have. so i guess the poor earphones worked way too hard.
