The cup is old but the tea is fresh(A metaphor for a good ol' online class mess up).
I(19M) was a little sleepy today running on about 3 hours of sleep in a theory class. The teacher doesn't require us to switch on our video(there's still remote classes in my uni) all the time, thankfully. Although, there's a good chance you might get called out for only answering during the attendance and not participating in the discussions or answering questions.
So I did, I answered a couple of questions that were asked and sat back. This doesn't bother me cause I don't mind the theory that much and I usually participate in the class. Although, my sleep got the best of me today. It was just too boring to handle. So I started scrolling Reddit, Instagram, messing with my phone etc. I saw a post on one of the suggested subs saying something about "Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven(I'm not sure)". And then it struck me. My brain decided to recall a song that I used to listen to quite a bit that had the lyrics "Moonlight sonata".
It was just one of those moments where you know the tune to that one line and maybe one or two words but can't figure out the song no matter how hard you try. My sleep deprivation didn't help me either. I tried googling wither but there's only so much Google can do when you know only two words and they happen to be a song by themselves. I concentrated really hard for about 30 seconds or so before the talking of the teacher got too distracting. I then remembered that Google Assistant added this feature where you can hum a song and it'll try to figure it out for you. So I removed my earphones and started humming all that I could remember from the song.
So there I'm sat humming with all my might in my godforsaken dead ass and sleep-deprived voice just so the poor algorithm can tell me the name of the song and I can be at peace. This went on for about 2 minutes (I tried a couple of times). As expected, the assistant couldn't identify it but when I put my headphones on, I just hear laughing and soon the mocking of my hums. Didn't take more than 2 seconds to know what was wrong. God knows how much I wanted to backflip onto a remote island and live there for the rest of my life.
For all those wondering, the song is called Up Up and Away by Juice Wrld and the lyrics that were in my mind were:
"I'm walkin' in Prada, tryna solve my problems
Through the night, finding vibes, Moonlight Sonata".
It's a beautiful song, give it a listen if you have the time!
TL;DR: Started humming a song so google can identify it with my mic unmuted while my class had a good laugh.
