Student Spotlight on Kevin Dotel
What is your favorite thing about SHS?
Definitely the fact that they allow us to carry our backpacks around. I would carry around two 20 pound binders last year, so it’s literally the best thing that’s happened to me.
What movie can you watch over and over without ever getting tired of?
Probably Forrest Gump? Honestly, it’s a classic, I think I know that movie by heart.
If you could have a superpower, what would it be?
People are seriously slacking on the power of probability. Seriously, does no one realize how strong it is? You could make the probability of you having the ability to fly to 100% and then you have that superpower, or the probability of having the power of super strength to 100%; you basically have the power of being able to have any power. it’s insane don’t @ me.
What is your goal for the year?
My goal for the year was to get into the top ten percentile. I accomplished that goal so I’d say I was successful?
What is the funniest word in the English language?
Bruh.
How do you judge a person?
The way someone ties their shoes says a lot let me tell you; shady people never double knot.
What is something that you have learned in your childhood that has stuck with you?
Most likely the idea that there’s a thin line between being nice and being taken advantage of. Knowing when someone is using you as a doormat and when to not let them do so is one of the more useful things I learned when I was younger.
What is something that most people may not know about you?
I can’t whistle and I haven’t watched most Disney movies.
What is your favorite number?
42 gang.
What qualities do you value in people who you spend time with?
Generosity and kindness. I find it important for the people I hang around with to be respectful to others and not insult or undermine them.
