What was that?

30th November 2009

          It was around 10pm and I was tired already. But I haven't study for the economy test for Monday. So,I set my alarm to 12am and had a nap.

         The alarm rang. It was 12am already. I turned off the alarm and continue to sleep.

         Suddenly,I felt my head was stuck to the right side. I couldn't move my head. It was like something keep pushing my head from the left. I couldn't turn my head to center or left side. It was very painful.

          This went on for quite some time. I tried very hard to get up but I couldn't. I wanted to get up from the bed and ask my mother to help me. But I couldn't get down of the bed. I had no energy in me. I didn't know why. I've tried to hard but I just couldn't move. I even tried to turn my head, the more I tried,the more it hurt. Tears even flowed out of my eyes. It was very painful. I had no way to get over it no matter how hard I try.

        Then, I thought of an idea. I prayed. I prayed to God. I said "Dear God,I'm in pain,please let me get over this. I cannot hold any longer." (in hokkien)

       Suddenly,I was awake! I was shocked to realise that it was a dream. But how could it be so real? My body position was exactly the same in the dream.  Was that actually a dream? How come everything was so real?

        It's just too real! And I wondered how come just I finished praying and I was awake already? Was that a coincident? Or was God actually helping me? Or God is trying to give me a hint? What was that all about?

       Am I thinking too much? But it's just impossible for me to let it go without thinking of anything. I cannot forget the moment I was in pain.

       I've heard about people saying about this. They say that "something" is disturbing you. It's called "鬼压床" in Chinese. But I don't really believe it. Cause I was in my own house. If I was in a hotel room or any other place, I might believe it.  My house safe as far as I know.

      Some people said that this happens when we're too tired or stressed. Well, that can be true. But I was not really worried about anything serious. Just some minor stuff like the exams and so on.

     Well,even if I was very tired and stressed, why I could wake up just at the time I finished praying.What was that all about?Was God really helping me? Or it was just a coincident?

     It's still a doubt in my mind....

                       Anyway, Thank God I was awake at last.....
