My name is Nicolas B. Saint Jean Jr. my friends call me Nick. I graduated last year from Medford High School, I am class of 2016 at Nichols. My hometown is Medford MA. I am Creole, originally from Haiti, I speak French, Haitian Creole, and I know a little of Mauritius Creole. I moved to the U.S. in September, 2009. During those past few years I have learned how to speak English, also how to play football. Back in Haiti I used to play soccer and I was really good at it. I just wanted to try something new and I fell in love for the game of football not only because I am good at it but because it teaches me about life itself. It also helped me overcome some of my biggest fears. Now it is a huge part of my life. That is because of football I am here this year at Nichols College telling you my story. I got recruited my senior, I had never heard of Nichols College before but when I came for my visit, I liked the school. The first thing I noticed about Nichols was how small the school is and how everybody knew each other. I liked that feeling. I wanted to fill that gap of brotherhood that had with my teammates back in high school. I did not play football this year, because I had nerve damage in my neck and lower back due to a car crash on a high way in New York last summer. I hope this year I am eligible to be back on the field this spring with whom I call my brothers. That depends on how things go with rehab. I also hope this semester I make the Dean's list highest honor, I made the honor but i was not really satisfy with it because I know I could have done better. My true color is gold. That is pretty much all about me, for now.
I hope by the end of this course, I will become more professional on using Microsoft Word, Excel, Power Point, and Publisher. I know those softwares are really important in the business word, so I am really interest on gaining those knowledges, to apply them in my future jobs. Also I am looking forward to learn how to create a web site.
A blog that really interest me is called "Red Bull Space Jump" it was published on Slate on October 15, 2012 by Will Oremus. It interests me because people are doing amazing and impossible things that they set their minds to. They failed a bunch of time but when they do succeed, it is really beautiful because now they are one of a kind. Felix Baumgartner plumbed 24 miles from the earth, and he broke two records. It was said and on paper that man could only jump 19.5 miles from the earth. He was moving so fast that he broke the speed of sound. He made the impossible become the possible.
