I am river, I am spring and curiosity. My life is water, it is blanket and bravery.
Riceplant is a very important source of energy for us. It teaches us not to feel full of ourselves and to be humble when we have more. The scientific name of the riceplant itself is Oryza Sativa. That is where I got my name, "Oryza" in "Ni Made Oryza Danena". Like a riceplant that learns from its surroundings (e.g. learning to give from the sun, caring from the water), but also look down when they have more. I am encouraged to live as my name, and live to learn but still be down-to-earth. "Ni Made" itself is a Balinese name structure for a second female child of the family in the sudra caste (the working class), and "Danena" is a passed-on family name.
The place where nature meets culture. Where people meets love. Renowed for its uniqueness you can't find anywhere else, from the beings to the things. Bali. There, you can't get enough of places to explore and things to try. No place can be more comfortable than home, and when your home is Bali, you won't want to leave, moving on will be the hardest.
All that was mainly because of the environment. People who surround us with possitivity shared those energies with us, making us feel at home even when we're not, as long as we have them. Our sense of togetherness could never fade, even when we're millions of miles away. They are also my home, my family is my safe place.
I live with my parents, my three other siblings, and my pets. We live in a Balinese traditional house called Gapura Candi Bentar, which is a home with different kinds of building for different occasions. Surrounding my house are recefields, which means the weather was nice back there, it was also close to the beach (i.e. one of my favorite place to go to). Being with people and places that are my homes are one of the most important things for me and my health.
The relaxment, the safe place in the hardest time. The one you can do without regrets, without pain, without burden. The one you find when you don't like searching for anything. The place to talk to and you feel that they listen, they care, they understand.
For me, it is knitting and crochetting, while reading a novel and listening to music. It help me focus during my activities, and relax. It helps me sleep when I cannot, helps me up when I get down, helps me stay when I want to go. It produces things, phisically and mentally. It is the place I want to go when I felt lonely.
Language flows in my blood like a stream of a river. It makes me feel connected to the rest of the world, like a social media we own and control ourselves. To explore, create, and give is the basics we can get from languages, which may be elaborated to further point of views. English is a remote control to connect to the rest of the world. A bridge to explore the other side of the land to feel the other air, the other sky, and the other experiences.
I love literatures in every form. Reading (especially novels) has become my addiction. It makes me feel like I live in so many different lives before, just in the form of books. By them, my connection is bigger. My point of view is diverse. My life road is stronger

I was born on Sunday, March 25th 2007 in Denpasar, Bali.
My MBTI is INFJ (Introvert, Intuitive, Feeling, Judging)
My favorite food is buttered bread! It is sweet and filling, not to heavy for a snack (even can be eaten as a meal), wouldn't be boring because it has a lot of variations and can be paired with a lot of sidefoods.
My favorite drink is matcha! It is detoxifying and tasty at the same time. It can be paired with a lot of different foods and drinks.
My favorite color is green! It was a relaxing color that represents the grass, forest, and cleanliness.
I look forward to study English and be connected, crossing that bridge smoothly.
