Biggest turn on: When a girl likes something really cool and unexpected that makes me interested in her. Like some really out there music that no one knows about.

Most embarrassing moment: It was after practice for basketball and the whole varsity squad had their beginning of practice meeting at center court. I was walking across the baseline and I ran up and grabbed the rim but I had too much momentum going forward so I swung forward and let go, I fell straight on my hip. I had to go to the trainer after and ice it and the whole varsity squad saw it and couldn’t stop laughing.
