Sleeping Beauties

Tokyo is sleepless. Even though JR and Metro subways stop rendering their services around 1am, a lot of people are staying up all night. Some people miss their last train to go home. Their alternative destination would be capsule hotel, manga cafe or karaoke bar unless they are able to afford a taxi to go home. Others are just working during night time. So leave them alone. However, there are still others who work just so hard (or too hard) that they suffer insomnia.

There must be so many experts' opinions for curing it, but I came to the conclusion that music might be one ever since I went to the Tokyo Opera City and the Tokyo Metropolitan last month. Well, Hip-Hop is not the only music I listen to, dude. The concert halls are great places to listen to live classical music. And to sleep. Isn't it nice to have an elegant, delicate classical music not only when you fall asleep but also when you wake up? I saw many peaceful faces. I did not fall asleep, by the way. I just made a deep "bow" to show my little appreciation for music, you know...

So, don't rely on your sleeping pills but go to a concert hall and have a sweet dream. However, for those who wanna sleep, just don't snore while the orchestra is performing. Also, for those who do not, don't wake your fellow up by kissing!
