1. Tell me about you. (Mini intro, too. How many siblings? Where did you live?)
Well, I grew up in London with my mother and stepfather, and occasionally my father. I have one sister, who's a right pain in the arse, and I'm an auntie four times (one of my nephews died in infancy). I love to read, I don't watch telly, and I'm addicted to the internet. Sorting communities are my new crack, and I can't get enough. I'm fiesty and obnoxious, and I usually don't hesitate to speak my mind. I avoid confrontation if I know I've pissed off a friend, but I don't care about getting into it with random strangers. My family are quite wealthy, and as a result, I grew up rather spoilt. I don't accept no for an answer, and I'll go to almost any length to prove myself right, even if I know I'm not. I love cats.
2. Why did you move to the U.S.?
A few years ago, I came to Colorado on extended holiday and fell in love with it. It's not home, and never will be, but I like being here. Living here is an interesting experience.
3. Which house do you most admire and why?
Slytherin. They're no-nonsense, cut-the-bullshit, and they pretty much make it clear that they're only out for themselves. I respect brutal honesty, and I consider myself to be brutally honest. They know what they want, they know how to get it, and if it means stepping on a few toes- so be it. They're clinical and calculating and intelligent. Not every Slytherin is a Muggle-hating Pureblood, and I think sometimes people forget that.
4. What's your fave thing about a country of your choice?
I love my country with a passion. There's nothing better than waking up on a dreary English day, getting dressed, and going shopping in Covent Garden or Camden.
5. What's the most stupid thing someone has said to you?
Well, my upstairs neighbour (not the Loud Sex Neighbour or the Hoovers-at-four-AM Neighbour) once accused me of trying to eat her dog.
And with that, I say goodnight.
