I didn't learn how to ride a bike without training wheels until I was 10.

From my "25 Things" Facebook note (I'll link you in a bit )
Until I was seventeen years old, I'd never had a nosebleed, so when the moment finally came, I panicked, thought something was wrong with my brain, and seriously considered calling 911.

I've seen Blue Man Group 9 times, and even was (unexpectedly) a part of one of those shows by addressing 10,000+ people here in Cleveland by performing Rock Concert Movement #48: Introducing the Band.

On the topic of 25 things....
But I most definitely did that note too.
*checks it to find a new fact*
When I was 17, I wrote an essay called "Anthem: The Ace Apologue" and it got published in a book called Believing in Greatness. I'm rather proud.

bahahaha, I posted mine nearly a year ago, so I should do an updated one soon!
For any history buffs... My great-great-grandfather's cousin was Edith Cavell. I actually got to learn about her in history class in grade 10, which was epic. She was a nurse in the first world war, and she single-handedly smuggled 200 soldiers out of the country, away from the Germans. But then they caught her and she was executed. It was totally controversial back then, since they executed her according to a "law", but they didn't make that law until 3 hours after they killed her. But her last words were "Patriotism is not enough. I have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone. Ask Father Gahan to tell my loved ones later on that my soul, as I believe, is safe, and that I am glad to die for my country." I cried the first time my dad told me the story.

I took me wayyy too long to find an answer to this question... I feel like I am boring.
When I get stressed I put things in rainbow order to calm down. I often carry a secret stash of paint samples in my wallet for distressing situations when I am away from home and want to keep this habit discrete

Kenya, I do drink very occassionally (like 6 times now?), and I've never been drunk either. Why push limits?
Random Fact: I have congenital flat feet, and have the Arnold's ear-cough reflex.
