Ranti Muthmainnah (17391/ NK2-10)

Process 3

My name is Ranti Muthmainnah. Everyone call me Ranti or Muth. I am twenty years old. I am a student at State University of Padang in majoring English department. I have a colorful life. Let’s me tell you more about my self.

My parents have given me name “Ranti” because I was born in “Surantih”. My name is almost like a name of the place where I was born. Then, my last name is Muthmainnah. It is taken from Arabic language that means “ jiwa yang tenang” or a peaceful soul. A name is a doa (wishes), so my parents want me to be a good girl like my name. I am proud of my name. I have a nice and good name. According to me, my name is the best name all over the world.

I come from a small family. My parents are the nice people. They have done their best for me and my young brother. My father’s name is Aprizal. He was a civil servant. He passed away on 16th august 2009. My mother’s name is Erlin Suarni Jaya. She is a teacher of elementary school in our hometown. I only have one brother and no sister. He is eighteen years old. He is a student of senior high school at third grade.

I am like other people too, I have steps of schools. My elementary school was at SD 03 Koto Nan IV Ranah Pesisir. Then I continued my study to Padang, Junior High School 5 Padang, but I moved to my hometown when I was in second grade because I was sick. My Senior High School was at Senior High Scool 1 Ranah Pesisir.

When I was in senior high school, I had achievements in English language. I won a public speaking contest two times. I also won an english debate contest. I like studying English. I did my best in English. I have made my parents were proud of me.

Now, I go to The State University of Padang in majoring English department. I passed the exam in fourth choice, it was my last choice. Actually, I want to be a doctor but I did not pass it. I know I have ability in English, but I wanted to be a doctor. My mother also did not allow me to be a doctor, I did not know why. I will try to do my best in my major now. I do it for my lovely mother. She really wants me can study abroad later. I also hope so.

My life is never flat. Sometimes I cry, but after that I will laught. I do not always get all of my wishes. That is life. I will do my best if I can. No one know what will happen in the future later. Live your life enjoyly.

My Mother, My Idol

Describing idol
Process 5

MY MOTHER, MY IDOL
Everyone in the world have an idol in their life. Idol is someone that you admire so much, maybe a singer, an actor, a football player, or a model. For me, my mother has been my idol since the day I was born. She is fifty years old. She has become a good mother for her children. She really loves her children.

She looks like a Chinese or maybe a Japanese. Almost all of her siblings have slanting eyes. My mother is really beautiful with her white skin, slanting eyes, and black straight hair. She has heavy shape and medium height. She looks more beautiful with her headscraft. Although she is begining to get wrinkles round her eyes, but she is still the most beautiful woman for me.

In 2009, my father passed away. We were so sad. She becomes a single parent now. My mother earns money to survive our life alone. She has worked as a teacher of elementary school in our hometown. She works full time and gives her children whatever they need and whenever they need it. She is really the greatest mother for me and for my young brother.

My mother said that she will not married again until she is die. There are many men want to be her husband after my father passed away but she rejected all of them. No one can change our father in her heart. She really loves her husband. For her, only one man forever.

I have a big question in my mind, “What can I do to pay back my mom’s love since I was born? What have I done?”. I only can study hard in the college and be a good girl. I will do my best to her because she is my everything, so I will do everything for her.

My mother will always be my idol forever. She is the best and the greatest mother in the world. She always understands her children well and always gives her best for me and for my brother. I really love my mother. I love you mom.

My lovely mother

My Hometown
Hi, I am Ranti. I want to tell you about my hometown, Pesisir Selatan, West Sumatera, Indonesia. Its capital is Painan.

It is far enough from padang. We can go there by public transportation that available from 6.00 a.m until 9.00 p.m. It is about 150 kilometers or five hours from Padang. The north of Pesisir Selatan is bordered by the city of Padang, the east by District of Solok and Jambi province, south by Bengkulu province, and the west by the Indonesian ocean.

Before the formation of the province of West Sumatera, Pesisir Selatan is part of The District of Pesisir Selatan and Kerinci period of Central Sumatera. Now, Pesisir Selatan become one district and Kerinci become one province, too.

The weather of Pesisir Selatan is hot but not too hot. In the morning and at night it is cold and at noon it is hot enough. At noon the temperature is about 23 to 32 degree Celsius and at night about 22 to 28 degree Celsius (based on Wikipedia).

Most of the Pesisir Selatan population depend on agriculture crops, fisheries and trade. The other potential power sources are the plantation and tourism. Plantation sector, especially oil palm plantation, has begun to grow rapidly since the last ten years which is located in District Pancung Soal, Basa Ampek Balai, and Lunang Silaut that involving several national investors.

Pesisir Selatan has beautiful natural panorama and fascinating. The nature is still clean and green because there is less factory and less vehicles so that the air is less pollution. Besides, Pesisir Selatan is famous by its beach. The beaches have beautiful under water marine life, clear, and white sand. We can run on the beach without sandals because it is clean and safety. There is no pollution in the sea so that we can do swimming and surfing.

Pesisir Selatan is also known by its food, Rendang Lokan. Rendang lokan is a special food from one of the district of Pesisir Selatan, that is Air Haji. This food is so delicious. If you want to taste it, please come to this place. There are many seashells (lokan) at Muara Indrapura with a depth about 16 meters. When taking seashells, divers do not use the tool at all.

Pesisir Selatan is the most beautiful place that I have ever seen. I will always miss my hometown wherever I am. If you want to have the nice and the unforgetful experiences please come and visit my lovely hometown.

Comparison Essay ( Process 3)
Ranti Muthmainnah (17391/ NK2-10)
Being Student of UNP or UNAND

There are two state universities in Padang, UNP and UNAND. Many students want to study in these universities. They choose UNP or UNAND because they are state university and they are cheaper than private university. The purpose of this essay is to contrast the differences between UNP and UNAND. The three main differences are location, majoring (educational and non-educational), and the building and environment.

I am going to discuss about the location of UNP and Unand first. The location of UNP is at Air Tawar Barat. It is a crowded area. There is a big hotel and mall near this university, Basko. Then, UNAND’s location is at Limau Manis. This area is not as crowded as in UNP’s area.

The second difference between UNP and UNAND is about the majoring. In Unp, almost all of the majors are educational. This university prepare the students to be teachers, good teachers. There are many good and talented teachers graduated from this university. In other hand, the majoring in UNAND are non-education. If you do not want to be a teacher you can enter UNAND.

The last different between UNP and UNAND is the building and the environment. In UNP, the style of buildings are different from one faculty to other faculty. There are not many trees in this university. This university is not green. In contrast, all of the buildings in UNAND are commonly same in style. The ares of UNAND is really wide. This are is the biggest building of university in Southeast asia. This area is at the hill. This are is really green, there are many tress. If you want to see the whole of UNP you can walk but if you want to see the whole of UNAND you can not walk, you can go by bus, motorcyle, or public transportation.

Those are the three differences between UNP and UNAND. As we can see it comes down to a personal choice. If you want to be a teacher you can enter UNP, but if you do not want you can enter UNAND. It is up to you. Both of these universies are good in quality.
