I had wanted to sleep early tonight (definition of today is before the rested sleep occurs). I went to bed by 2230 (10pm) and woke by 0010. If you guys (girls) remember that i made a post about hearing music in the middle of the night, well.. it happened again. Anyway, i wasn't really in this sleep. I think somehow, the heat from the jog earlier today got trapped in the body and i was sweating the whole time i was in bed, even when the fan was spinning at my head. Not the most conducive sleep conditions.

I heard the music at around 0000. Since my bed was pushed up against the wall with the light switch, i reached up and flipped it, looked around the room, saw nothing except an old dusty paper box in the vague direction of the music. The paper box used to contain a radio, well it has a picture of the radio on the box, that's why i know what it was used for. And i went like, "What the hell, the paper box can produce music?? Why are we wasting batteries when we can utilise afew hauntus (hauntu is ghost in malay)"

It turned out that my brother's clock, also in the same vague direction of the radio box, can switch into radio mode at the set alarm time. Much better than the normal but boring ring ring or beep beep huh? So i draw the conclusion that the last time i heard music in the middle of the night, is the same thing as what happened today, my brother's clock going hay-wired. The clock was supposed to go off at 0600, not 0000.

And... YAY!!! I'm not delusional, there really was music of that night. Anyway, i'll sign off with lyrics to Phatom of the Opera's Music of the Night.

Music of the Night
Nighttime sharpens,
Heightens each sensation.
Darkness, stirs and wakes imagination.
Silently the senses abandon their defenses.

Slowly, gently
Night unfurls its splendor.
Grasp it, sense it,
Tremulous and tender.
Turn your face away, from the careless light of day!
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling nights.
And listen to the music of the night.

Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dream!
Leave the thoughts of life you knew before!
close your eyes and let your spirit start to soar.
and youll live, as youve never lived before.

Softly, Deftly,
Music shall caress you.
Hear it, Feel it,
Secretly posses you.
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight,
The darkness of the music of the night.

Let your mind
Start a journey through a strange new world!
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before!
let your soul
take you where you long to be!
Only then can you belong to me...

Floating, falling
Sweet intoxication,
Touch me, trust me
Savor each sensation.

Let the dream begin,
Let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write,
The power of the music of the night!

You alone can make my song take flight,
Help me make the music of the night...
