Trust a blog meme....

So there are a bunch of blog prompts on the net and this is one I chose for today. Some of these things are things I am only putting because I trust all 6 of my blog readers not to intentionally hurt me.

The Rule of Five

Answer these 5 sets of 5 Questions...


5 People Who Made You do something you didn't want to, but ended up being grateful they did.


1. Sarah/Nate/Denise/Stacee: Made me get on the airplane....Thanks Guys!

2. John Hodges: Made me go visit my dad, in fact he wouldn't let me go to some youth event until I had. It was the last time I saw my dad before he died. I am truly grateful even if I was a total brat about it.

3. My Mom: Made me do a lot of stuff that I didn't want to while growing up, and now I am grateful.

4. Denise (again) makes me watch movies that I complain about having to watch, but then I like.

5. The last person is remaining unnamed, but if they were to read this they would know who they are. Constanttly making me do things, just because I should, because they are good for me, or because they are the right thing to do.... When I end up being a better person than I am today, you'll be at least partially responsible...


5 Things people don't know about you.


1. When I was in fourth grade the school made me see a psychiatrist because I had Trichotillomania. I still have it but not as bad. It is the compulsive pulling out of ones hair. One day they discovered I had no eyelashes and a giant spot on the side of my head with no hair. It ended up being okay, the shrink was nice and when I "graduated" he gave me a giant lavender rag doll. I really liked that doll. And now I have eyelashes again.

2. There are only 5 people who can hug me without making me flinch. And I hate it. It isn't because I don't like everyone else, It's a total me thing. If you are one of those five you are one of the people I trust the most in life, feel special.

3. I used to think I was going to die young because I didn't think that God had a plan for my life, because I didn't know what it was. I still don't but I'll recognize that He has one...I wish he would tell me what it is...

4. I almost didn't graduate from high school. (Not exactly a secret but I am running out of things to put.)

5. If I had to give up either chocolate or soda, I would give up chocolate...And then no one would be my friend...
