Hello, I’m Nadya. I’m 22 years old. I come from Payakumbuh. But right now, I live in Pekanbaru. I’m student
of Riau University. I go to college every Monday-Friday. Lectures always start at 8 am to 3 or 5 pm, me and my
friend make jokes about this, we will always say “from sunrise to sunset”. Every weekend, I spend my time for
organization activities. I joined BEM. Organization activity makes me able to communicate well, find someone new,
and new networking. Maybe this activity is tiring but I love it.
About my kith and kin, my father is an entrepreneur. My father sells eggs. My father is a very patient person,
very rarely angry. My mom is a housewife. She is a very wise person and good cooker. I'm the second child. I have
two brothers. My older brother graduated from college this year. Right now he stays in east Java. Like father, like son,
my old brother is a patient person and doesn't talk much. My younger brother is still in middle school, now he lives with
my parents in Payakumbuh. My family is my biggest supporter and motivate me to do everything. I'm very grateful
about my family, I love them so much.
