EN: a sudden rise (from a lying position)
It's that heart-stopping moment when you wake up, check your phone, and realize you've slept through three alarms and are an hour late for work. That frantic, panicked jump out of bed? That's a **balikwas**. It's the physical manifestation of 'I'm so fired.'
Refers specifically to the action of quickly getting up from a lying or reclining position.
