Reverse lah...

Recently a video has been really popular.

"AUNTIE, REVERSE LAHHH...YOU ARE DRIVING LEXUS RX 300 YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO REVERSE 'MEH?? THE WHOLE KAMPONG WAITING FOR YOU...YOU SEE THE LONG QUEUE THERE? HAIYO...REVERSE LAH...THE PARKING SO BIG LAH! IF YOU CAN'T DRIVE LEXUS DON'T DRIVE...USE BICYCLE! EASY PARKING LAH..."

Anybody recognizes these lines?

My classmates are crazy at those lines, really. Especially Keira. Now I am calling her 'Auntie' instead of 'hon' or 'babe'. Wew. And the most used line between us is this:

'Reverse lahhh....'

Simple. Yet if you add another word at the back, they can become a phrase that's really impossible to do. You know what's that word?

Time.

Can you reverse the time? I think no. We'll never be able to reverse the time. At least now (Except when someone can finally travel at light's speed, which is nearly impossible. Besides, it's only a theory. It has not been proven, right?)

Anyway. When I think of these words, or rather, this phrase, it has come to my mind that if I could do it, I would really be happy to. I want to be able to reverse the time back to when we, all 89 students, and many more, could laugh together. Could sing together in the worship. Could protest together at the teacher's 'unfair' markings.

Seriously, those are the happiest times in my life (well, there are other ones, but never mind that first.)

I cried myself to bed when I realized that the time to separate has finally come. In a few weeks.

Some people posted very sad comments about this particular moment. Honestly, at that time I didn't think of it. My brain was fully concentrated at studying, 'coz it was finally the LAST EXAM I would have while wearing a uniform. But then those posts appeared, and my mood to study was gone. In an instant.

I recalled the times when I could laugh and tease my friends. Also the times when I was teased and laughed at. I'm not sad about it now. I'm really happy, because I finally found my place. But now I am about to leave this place.

And it's sad. Really.

When I weeped I remembered this phrase. "Reverse lahhh..." Oh, how I wish I could really reverse the time. But then, let's face the reality.

It's gone now. Those times are gone, can't be reversed, can't come back.

But as one of my friends said, "Look ahead to the future." There are a lot of things and obstacles waiting for us, yet as long as we have those precious memories, we'll be strong. With God's strength, we'll win. That's what we always believe in, right?

Even though we are going our separate ways, at least we've laughed, joked, cried, protested, commented, and whatever we did together. And that's enough as long as we remember the smiles once we had on our faces.

And as long as we don't suffer from insomnia, that's it :)

Bye for now.

P.S.: Love you, all my friends!
