Rizza June Java
Rizza June Java is certainly in class A herself. "Riz", as her friends fondly call her, is soft-spoken, modest almost to a fault, and un-poetically sweet, sometimes mistaken as snob, "maldita", unapproachable and "suplada". An ingenue who's not afraid to let loose and look a little silly, Rizza nevertheless possesses a depth and maturity beyond her 18 years.
