“Hello, 256 ka ni? Ini kawan cousin kau ba… (and then she went on and on telling me why she called.)
Last2 she said this to me.
“Actually, sia senior kau ba ni. Tapi mungkin kau nda ingat sia. Nantilah kita cerita panjang lebar.”
I said, “Wait, what’s the name, ah?”
When she said her name, I said, “Ohhh, I remember!!”
The small world does it again. Finally the senior meets the junior.
Kami dari sekolah menengah yang sama. Dia ni seorang yang dilabel sebagai “tidak disukai” oleh kawan2 dia, simply because of her mouth. Maybe percakapan dia yang tidak disukai, plus dia punya cara pembawaan diri yang memang buat orang meluat sama dia. Sia sendiri tidak suka dia masa tu sebab dia suka bawa mulut dan dia memang jenis orang not likable. Suka throw muka yang jeling2 orang macam dia cantik betul, and something like that la. That’s what I can recall about her.
Sia pula adalah seorang junior yg humble dan tidak femes pun atas apa2 sebab. Sia cuma pernah femes kejap ja masa awal2 masuk skul, lepas tu sia down terus. I didn’t have the elite group as my friends. I did not perform so well in studies, or in sports or anything. The only thing I could perform a bit better was as "a friend" to my friends, especially when it comes to sharing their problems. That's all I excell in. Erks. Those friends at least appreciate me so much. Other than that, I was not so much of a talk-about, which was the best thing to be for me that time. When I was in secondary, I was really a back bencher, so I don’t think I get a much better review compared to her.
All in all, both of us were A Nobody back then.
We are both could be remembered for all the wrong reasons. She was too forward, I was too backward – Anything too much is Lamerz for high schools.
So what happens now?
She definitely is a different person. The way she presents herself pun berbeza sudah. Actually, I met her a few years back before the phonecall just now. I knew that she knows my cousin, just that I didn’t ask for confirmation. With all the “not so cool” thing about her from high school, you know why I never care.
So tomorrow she said she’s coming to my place to discuss something. So we gonna meet again. Finally. In years.
I have something to share with you guys. I have met or heard about my seniors. Walaupun kami dari sekolah yang sama, tapi belum tentu lagi nasib kami sama. Ada my seniors yang begitu hebat dari highschool, tapi end up being so slow in life, like still taking diploma di college swasta and still trying to land a job. Ada yang still jobless. Walaupun ada di antara dorang ni adalah high-achievers dan disegani masa dulu, tapi bila kami habis SPM, kami balik zero-zero. True. Very true.
Ini adalah satu sinar harapan untuk mereka2 yang sucks masa school. You guys can make up for it. Sepa diri kamu masa secondary school tu tidak akan menentukan siapa kamu selepas habis sekolah. Tidak bermaksud kamu akan sentiasa bagus, atau sebaliknya. Sia pernah rasa jadi kedua-duanya, jadi memang it’s totally up to me sia mau jadi yg mana satu.
Usaha, dicampur dengan Nasib, Tuah dan Takdir – ini akan menjadikan kita sesiapa sahaja. Tapi Usaha itu boleh mengubah nasib dan membuka jalan untuk Tuah tu berlaku pada kita.
Jadi… maybe I have a lot to be ashamed of when it comes to who I was in secondary school, but I’m not ashamed of who is am NOW. Walaupun sia belum capai apa2 pun yang begitu membanggakan, tapi personally sia sudah ambil tu remote control untuk hidup sia sendiri. Satu kepuasan yang bukan semua orang boleh rasa. Jadi yang paling penting sekali adalah…sia nda peduli sudah apa dorang akan cakap pasal sia. Itu lah beza dia sekarang.
If you ask me, I know what to answer you. The point is very simple. I’m not here by mistake or fluke. This is Who I want to be. I know what I’m doing.
So, meeting back a senior is a good reunion. You can learn something about life with the little comparison that we do to who they were in high school and who they are now. One good thing about being “A Nobody” before, your direction is mainly “To Be Better” as long as you move forward. Maybe it’s actually a little scary if you are “A Somebody” too early in your life. Takut2 you have reached too high too soon, that you can only move down. But then again, theories are theories. Life is in your hands.
P/S - I will be very busy tomorrow and the next day. I might not be around but promise to give nice updates very soon, okay :) Have fun and enjoy your day! :)
