The doctor told me there is a hole in my heart but it was normal. is this thing really normal or what?

A hole in a heart can't be normal at your age. I would assume you have a septum defect, either atrial or ventricular septum. A small septal defect may not require intervention but condition needs to be periodically monitored.
