    *sings fresh prince theme*

    I was born and bred in Worcestershire the land of sauce in England, though i did move to Leeds for University i am back down the country now. Im going to put this out there now.... while I am very proud to be British and English, but I am not a "Brit" i find the word really ugly and yet it seems British people are even using it to describe themselves nowadays :|
    Naturally i speak queens English, so yeah i do sound like English people do on American tv/films... and the more im around people who pronounce things properly the more well spoken i get. Having lived in Leeds for three years, and my boyfriend being Leeds born and bred i have a lot of very well spoken moments.

    Born in Yakima, WA, USA. Raised in apple, pear, cherry, and peach orchards in the middle of nowhere, where my closest neighbor was almost a mile away.

    English is my native language. I've got hillbillies and Yankees on one side and Irish and Native American on the other.
