The Interview of a Students Life

on Tuesday, September 18, 2012

When your life has been centered on your health. It can literally shape you into someone that is passionate and ambitious at what one does. This is what I learned from Nick Short whom I had the great pleasure of interviewing. Nick who is currently 17 years old, has lived a life which has included a great deal of doctor visits. This has come as a cause of the heart condition that he has which is called SVT. At the same time he has also had to fight through the nerve disease that he has encountered. When he talks to you, he does so with such enthusiasm and charisma that one would not even know what pain he has been through and still has to go through. He enjoys talking and meeting people and makes you feel very comfortable when having a conversation. Some things that have helped him to be at where he is right now is his family who has supported him through all his troubles. But at the same time he has learned how to manage the doctor visits with school to allow him to be successful in both school and his health. When I asked him where he would see himself in five years he told me that he could see himself working with animals. He loves animals and would really much enjoy working with them. And given how I learned how kind and passionate he is about whatever it is that he does; when he told me that he would like to work with animals, I could truly see him in the same exact place he sees himself in the future.
