This morning, my alarm clock failed to wake me up... Well, actually, my alarm clock is my handphone... Luckily, my dad woke me up for Subuh prayer... This got me thinking, is there any alarm clock out there that's truly effective in waking up people? 

Well, I Googled...

When I was studying at UiTM Lendu, I had a roommate once who left his alarm clock locked up in his closet while he went home to Johor... Yes Ridhwan, it's you... The alarm went off and I couldn't kill it because the closet was locked... It rang for hours until the batteries died... Luckily the sound was muffled by the wooden closet... 

Ridhwan was pretty immune to his own alarm clock... We slept in different rooms after we moved in to a rental house while studying at UiTM Kampus Bandaraya Melaka... His alarm clock was often heard by me and other housemates from his room... The alarm didn't wake him though, us knocking on his door did... 

Maybe Ridhwan needs one of those above :-P
