Hearing Perception
For the longest time I have not posted for various reasons; where to start, who even reads?, I don't have time, I forgot, etc... That stops now! It really comes down to making the time to sort out your thoughts. I should be getting ready for bed, but I know that just dedicating a few moments of my time to jot down some of the thoughts jumbling around in this brain are worth conveying in my LJ. I may or may not be a little tipsy off of rum and coke, and there probably is not a single soul reading this other than my future self, but that is really okay, because this post it just to give a tiny bit of relief to the mind of Shari.
My mind does not stop. This is a bit off topic from why I came here tonight, but it is always in the back of my mind. I just cannot stop analyzing life. Myself. My faults. Do people even really like me? If not, why? Does it even really fucking matter? Idk! IDC! Ok obvi, I do care a little bit... HAHAHA. We will put a pause on that for now because it's another whole can of worms.
Tonight, I am here writing in LJ because I had a thought about perception and how it is SOO SO SOOOOO different person to person! It is absolutely fascinating to me that things can be perceived so differently person to person. This clearly applies in so many different ways, but tonight, in a way I never really thought about, which is sound. The way we all hear things differently. Tonight, Daniel and I were at our friends house (Keller and Shelby) just hanging out and drinking, you know normal friend shit. Keller told us about a gaming friend he has that sounds identical to Daniel. Shelby comments that sometimes she overhears chat and asks if it's Daniel. Keller proceeds to get onto whatever game and connects with gaming headset to talk to this guy so we can hear the similarity. Daniel talks to him for a few moments and evidently agrees that he sounds like himself. They hand the headset over to me so I can hear, and the guys sounds NOTHING like Daniel AT ALLL. LOL This dude sounds SOOO fucking Canadian, because he is, that I can't comprehend how ANYONE can think he sounds even a little bit like Daniel! What the fuck is happening?! Why is what I hear (which obviously will be "correct" in my mind) so fucking different from what they are hearing? Does sound perception really vary that much person to person? Daniel grew up in San Jose, California, and you can tell he definitely has a very American accent. I seriously do not understand how three other people (including the "sound alike" voice owner) thinking the two voices are similar. It is actually a little bit irritating to me; does everyone else have defective ears? Is my hearing superior?! Is my hearing fucked up? IDK!!! Daniel and I have been dating for 6 years! I know his voice. IDK, but if that dude called me claiming to be Daniel, I would not be fooled, at all. IDGI.
