An Interview With Jordan: The Nurse, The Stove, And My Sister

In This Article:

Between our busy schedules, my sister Jordan and I don't get to see each other as much as we'd like to! That's why I decided to interview my sister this week!

I was excited to interview her because, even though we're siblings and grew up in the same home, we're two different people and thus see the world differently. It's amazing the amount of stuff you can learn about the people you grew up with!

Without further adieu, meet Jordan!

Tell me about your childhood! Where were you born? What was your childhood like? Favorite childhood memories?

Where was I born? In a hospital room. Duh.

My childhood was full of laughter and love. There were many obstacles that got thrown my way but it's made me who I am today.

One of my favorite childhood memories is when I would crawl up on my dad's lap and be rocked to sleep. However, tormenting you [Elyssa] was always my goal at the end of the day.

Ah yes. Tell me, what is your favorite "I tormented my sister" story?

My favorite story is when we were younger and you climbed up a tree and I removed the ladder from underneath you. You had to sit up in the tree for hours until Dad realized that you were up there while I knew the whole entire time that you were stuck.


Oh goodness. Yes, I remember that. Ha! OK, so you've just graduated community college. What are your plans now?

After graduating from Cowley, I plan to pursue my journey towards nursing. I'm waiting to hear back from a couple of different nursing programs at the moment.

What made you want to go into nursing? What do you look forward to most as a nurse?

Growing up in the medical field and watching dad work as a paramedic/firefighter, I always knew I wanted to be in the same type of field. I look forward to being able to take care of people and bring them back to health.

What's the hardest challenge you've faced and how has it shaped you?

The hardest challenge that I have ever faced was growing up without my mom active in my life. It has shaped me many different ways. But I am thankful for the lessons it has taught me.

What values are most important to you?

The most important values that I have are honesty and loyalty. Without either of those, it is hard to trust a person.

And what keeps you busy? Hobbies/activities?

Work and school keep me pretty busy. When I am not doing either of those, I enjoy playing softball and spending quality time with my family.

Final question: if you were a kitchen appliance, what would you be and why?

If I were a kitchen appliance, I would want to be a stove. I am able to do many things and others would rely on me.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
