I was doing some research a couple days ago,<br />
and sometimes we can think we know more<br />
than we really do…. seriously, I definitely passed<br />
some time learning a few surprising fun facts,<br />
so I thought I’d share them with the Teen Look<br />
Family!<br />

<strong>November</strong> is a time to reflect and appreciate<br />
the soldiers before us who represented<br />
Canada during World War I, World War II, The<br />
Korean War, and peacekeeping missions. With<br />
Remembrance Day just around the corner, it’s<br />
important we pause to show respect and acknowledgement<br />
to those who have passed<br />
away while fighting for our country. We need<br />
to be aware of the veterans who fought for the<br />
peace we now have. Without them, we wouldn’t<br />
have the peaceful and calm life which is now<br />
presented to us, all due to men who sacrificed<br />
themselves during this time. Fathers, Uncles,<br />
Brothers, Cousins, Husbands and loved ones<br />
were lost. People who had even more purpose<br />
than they were able to express during their<br />
short time were lost. Soldiers got hurt, and more<br />
hearts were just torn, and that’s why we need to<br />
remember the veterans on the particular day of<br />
<strong>November</strong> 11th<br />
• Your eyes blink about every 6 seconds,<br />
which averages out to 14,000 blinks per<br />
day…..that is over 5 million blinks a year! (I<br />
am aware you are now feeling weird about<br />
blinking)<br />
• Triple whammy- (read this, it’s important.<br />
You’ll thank me when I save your life)<br />
• First off, if you sneeze too hard, you can<br />
fracture a rib…. secondly, if you keep your<br />
eyes open by force while sneezing, you<br />
might pop an eyeball out. Lastly? If you try<br />
to suppress a sneeze by plugging your nose,<br />
you can rupture a blood vessel in your head<br />
or neck and die. (I told you it’s very important!<br />
You should listen to me!)<br />
• Wearing headphones for just an hour will increase<br />
the bacteria in your ear by 700 times!<br />
• A healthy person’s bones are 4 times stronger<br />
than concrete.<br />
• While dreaming, (not daydreaming, I mean in<br />
your sleep) you become paralysed until you<br />
wake up.<br />
• Most lipstick contains fish or snake scales!<br />
(eww repelling)<br />
• There are at least 5 people in this world who<br />
look almost exactly like you, but there’s only<br />
a 0.003% chance you’ll meet one of them.<br />
• Only 1% of humans have red hair.<br />
• Just before falling asleep when you are almost<br />
unconscious, 95% of your brain begins<br />
thinking about things you want to have.<br />
• Over 42% of teens can text with their eyes<br />
completely shut.<br />
