A Quest!

I feel like I'm in Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail since Elizabeth Carman has given me something to do on my blog. :)

Okay - so I was tagged to reveal five things about myself that most people may not know.

1. When I was a kid I loved to cook and I wanted to be a chef.
2. I had a terrible temper growing up and would fight if somebody even looked at me in a way I didn't approve of.
3. The first girl I kissed was in 4th grade - I don't remember her name.
4. I went to private school and I taught myself Intro to Algebra and Advanced Algebra in one school year. We were allowed to move at our own pace and for some reason when I saw a problem I would instantly see the answer.
5. This is not something I reveal easily or at the drop of a hat, but since most of the people who read this are friends, I feel like its something you should know about me. But even if you're a stranger, maybe this is a way to reach out to people who dealt with the same or similar thing. I grew up in an abusive home (mental and sexual) and my step-dad would use the Bible to show me how bad I was. I always say that it is a miracle that I am a Christian at all, because I had no good reason to remain in the Faith when it was more of a negative than a positive experience in my formative years.

Bonus:

6. I have an IQ of 144. :) So I think that makes me an official geek or nerd or something...

I will now tag:
Josh
Neena
Laura (I would tag Dan too, but apparently he doesn't have a blog...so lame)
Amber
Jesica
