The place where I'm staying is undergoing major construction. (Luckily they're not using asbestos or we'll have a Mesothelioma Cancer lawsuit "Erin Brokovich" style over here!) Anyways, it's a fairly new building and most people are refurbishing/reconstructing their units. I'm glad it's Sunday tomorrow so that I won't be awaken so early with the sounds of drills and hammers and what nots.

If I had extra "kaching" right now, I'll get myself the highest degree of noise cancelling/noise reduction headphones to drown out all other noises!! Something like Bose's QuietComfort® 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling® headphones.

The features are:

• High-performing noise reduction headphones for travel, work and home
• Enjoy your music and movies even more, with clear and lifelike sound
• Comfortable and lightweight on-ear fit
• Rechargeable lithium-ion battery and charger included
• Fold-flat earcups for easy storage in slim carrying case
• Powered by just one rechargeable battery, you can enjoy noise-reducing music up to 25 straight hours (per charge).

It does come at a hefty price of GBP275, though.. *sigh* Guess like yours truly just has to deal with the construction noises after all..
