They move about in their personal bubbles, sometimes unaware of what’s happening around them. They walk around in their own spaces, with their personal “digital(数码的) noise reduction systems” 1. So are you one of them?

For me, walking around in my own personal bubble is perfect. 2. What’s even better, wearing earphones seems to give a signal to people which says, “I’m not available for chatting at the moment.”
