Earbuds

I've been listening to portable music for what seems like forever. I remember my first portable tape player I got as a gift, it was neon hot pink and black (yup my favorite color) but it did the trick. I am currently in possession of a sexy black and white creative zen (ok so they were sold out of ipods so I had to settle for this). Through out my portable music players I have always had different headphones and earbuds. In general I always like the earbuds because I could secretly listen to music at places and times I shouldn't be. I could keep my hair down and just listen to the song and escape the world.

Recently I notice that my current earbuds which came with the zen didn't sound so good. In general it was always ok so I thought I must have done something to them not really thinking much about it. However I noticed that I was actually just wearing the buds in the wrong ears. I have never really bothered to figure out which one is for which ear but this made all the difference. I don't really know why but the music sounds so different when you wear them in the wrong ears. I guess the way the sound is projected is so different and specific for each ear. Or maybe its those voices again....
