My Family

My mother is 47 years old. Her name’s Meliana. She has oval face with beautiful brown eyes and sharp nose. Her hair is black, short, and curly. She is still slim because she always tries to stay in shape. She is very good-looking, always well-dressed, and elegant.

Meanwhile, my father, Heriyan, is 2 years older than my mother. He is 49 years old. In spite of his age, he has still black-haired, with several grey hairs. He also has oval face, sharp nose, and black eyes. He is quite tall, but a bit shorter than me. He’s very hard-working. Besides that, he is working in a travel company. He can even make a dinner when my mother is outside. His cooking and his meals are always very tasty as well as my mothers.

Finally, my little sister, Bendina. She is 14 years old. She looks like my mother. She has long wavy hair, brown eyes, sharp nose, and oval face. She is definitely shorter than me. She is rather introverted. But she is very sensible, smart, and co-operative. Right now, she is studying at Junior High School in 8th grade. I want to be as smart as she is.

Me and my parents speak Sundanese very well, because we were living in Bandung for 5 years. I have been going to primary school there. Unfortunately, my sister was only 3 when we were leaving to Jakarta, so she can’t speak Sundanese. Now we are happily living in Jakarta.
