About

I'm Erick Setiyawan. I was born in Musi Rawas, Sumatera Selatan, Indonesia. Now I'm 16 years old. I'm the first child from two siblings. Now on I have been in ten grader of SMA Negeri Sumatera Selatan (Sampoerna Academy). It is at Pangeran Ratu street Seberang Ulu 1, Palembang. I never dreamed would occupy the space of this class, I was a child who comes away from the city, I was a child that is not trendy. Language style was different. But I always try to be the best for teachers and my friends. I keep the spirit. A raging spirit, always convince myself to keep the spirit. Not the separation that makes me sad, but the struggle was the one who shed tears.

My Hobby

My hobbies are reading and sports. Many kinds of sport that I like, such as badminton and volley ball. Usually I like to play badminton almost every afternoon after school time finish, because usually I got tired after school. Badminton can refresh my brain and get new spirit to do my activities.

Futhermore, in the evening when I have free time, usually I like to read a novel or other books, that can give me some knowledge. Besides that, I like to make poem.

My Family

My family consists of four people. There's my father, my mother and my sister, also me. We live together in our house. My father is fifty-four years old. He works as a farmer. He is tall and slim, has god black hair and black eyes. My father likes gardening very much.

Now I'll describe my mother and my brother. My mother is forty-nine and she works as a house wife. She is small and slim, has short black hair and black eyes. Since we have a cottage with a garden they both spend a lot of time there. My sister is seven years old. She is slim and has long black hair and black eyes. She attends elementary school. She also spends a lot of time with her friends.

I have only two grandmother left still living. She is in pretty good health even at the age of seventy-eight so she still lives in her own flat. I enjoy spending time with her when I can. Both my grandfathers died because they got sick, which was really a great tragedy because I didn't get a chance to know them.

My parents have assigned me certain duties around the house. I don't mind helping out because everyone in a family should contribute in some way.  Of course I also have to help keep my room tidy as well. My brother is responsible for the dusting and the mopping. He also has to clean his own room. Even though my brother and I sometimes fight about who has to do what job, we are still very close. I am also very close to my parents and I can rely on them to always try to help me. My parents work together to keep our home well maintained. They respect each other's opinions and even if they disagree they can always come to a compromise. I hope in the future that I have a family like ours. This condition happen before  I moving to Palembang, but now we still do that even different place.
