I N T R O D U C T I O N .

HELLO!

My name is Amanda Savira, my friends usually call me by the name ‘Amanda’. I am currently studying at Universitas Padjadjaran in major Public Administration, Faculty of Social and Politics. I was born on 17th June 1999, which means I have just graduated high school in year 2017, at the same time I have gotten into University and become a freshman. I am the second sibling out of three siblings, and here's the picture of my older sister and younger brother!

The woman on the right is my older sister, whose name is Annisa Zakira Fillah. She is currently pursuing her Magister degree in major Architecture, Institut Teknologi Bandung. She was born on 14th December 1996, which makes her age 21 years old in year 2017. She really, really likes drawing. So it is not actually a surprise if she wants to become an architect. Due her age, she is very mature. When I face some trouble in my university life, she often gives me rational advices, which I really thankful of. But don't let her face fool you! She might look like a very adult person (only when she's wearing glasses though, sorry sis.) On the inside, she really likes Korean boys, especially those who join in boybands or even Korean actors. When her inner fangirl explodes, trust me, you wouldn't want to see it. 

On the other hand, my younger brother who stands and poses on the center of the picture, his name is Andra Arya Putra. He is currently studying in SDN Kemanggisan 17 Pagi at 5th grade. In his spare time, he enjoys playing online games such as mobile legends, or watching youtube videos. He acts like a cool boy, but he is actually a nerd. (Just kidding.) He is a very soft boy that when I curse unconsciously, he warns me to not utter more dirty words. Who knows that a ten-year-old boy is much wiser than me? Anyway, although he acts like he doesn't care anything at all about me, he was the only one who waited on the gate of our house, only to see me after I had finished my SBMPTN test. Not only that, he texted me to ask 'How's the test sist?', and surprisingly, no one had told him to do so. It still flatters me until now.

Now's the time for my lovely mother! Her name is Cathy Yuniarti, I usually call her 'mom'. (Obviously) Unlike other mothers out there, she doesn't like cooking, but she doesn't hate it either. She's just... Not wanting to learn anything about cooking except the basic ones. So it makes her both daughters aren't good at it either. Even though that one time when my sister has watched Master Chef and she suddenly wants to learn about cooking, my mom complains that my sister is just playing about it. Well, in the end, my mom gave my sister the money to buy the ingredients, at least. Though my mom promises to not lend any hand in the cooking process. My mom is actually a funny woman, especially when she goes singing and all, the thing she usually does when she feels her head is going to explode. And she is very, very nice too! She is the one who often calls me when I stay on my rantau land (a.k.a Jatinangor or Jatinewyork or whatever people calls it to be) She is also the one who welcomed me warmly when I went home after months studying and staying on another Kabupaten, the world that is entirely different from my home.

The last but not the least! My father, the one and only Arief Reynaldi. His name’s cool, so does the person. (Please don’t tell him I’ve said it) He shares the same face as my brother. Just look at the picture, it was as if my father has visited the past through time machine only to see his younger self. But their personality are much different. My brother is a quiet, sometimes shy boy. (but not to his close friends though), and has the I-don’t-care-about-your-life personality when it comes to me. (Although he deeply cares for his loved ones but doesn’t want to admit it, ha!) My father is a very talkative person, he is also able to make funny jokes to people, and easily hang out to other people. It is almost the same to my sister, who has many friends and easily talk to new people. They share almost the same personality, in my opinion.

There’s all that! My tiny, happy family and I! They have various personalities, each different and unique, which makes them not ordinary at all. Their rarity makes them unforgettable, even when I am far away from home, studying on another land, with another people surrounding by me.
