The name is Pramono....Andika Widya Pramono. I was born in Jakarta,
March 13 1970. I am the third son in the family. I have two older
brothers and a younger one (...all men...). My father is now working as
a managing director of a private insurance company. My mother is a housewife.
However, she used to work in the same office with my father long time ago.
There's something interesting regarding my name and the names of my brothers. My parents gave us the same name for the first two words. No, no, we are not twins. Very often many people then mixed us up which one was who, since we introduced ourselves much more commonly with the first name rather than the last name. Well, these are our names :
- Andika Widya Pratomo (the oldest brother, October 1 1966)
- Andika Widya Prayudi (the older brother, January 17 1968)
- Andika Widya Pramono (me)
- Andika Widya Prasetyo (the younger brother, March 1 1974)
So, the following telephone-conversation normally took place :
-
over there:"Halo, bisa bicara dengan Andika?" ("Hallo, may I speak to Andika?")
-
us:"Ngggh, Andika yang mana ya?" ("Mmmm, which one?")
-
over there:"Lho, memangnya ada berapa Andika di situ?" (Hmm, actually how many Andikas are there?")
-
us:"Ha..ha..Andikanya ada empat tuh di sini" ("Ha..ha..there are four Andikas here")
-
over there:"Kalo gitu, Andika yang kuliah di Gunadharma" ("Then the one that studies in Gunadharma"); it meant my younger brother. However in 1995, he finished his study in Gunadharma University-Jakarta.
or
-
over there:"Andika yang kacamata" ("The one with glasses"); ha..ha..this one was still not clear since there were three of us who wore glasses
We have, of course, nicknames. And our parents, close friends and relatives call us with these names. So, we are consecutively: Andi, Yudi, Pram, and Pras.
