Josephine Appleby

Los Angeles, California, United States

  • I'm Josephine, known as Posy or Seph, but NEVER as Josie, Jo, Jo-Jo or Joey.
  • I was born in Leicestershire, England, to an English dad and American mom, and have been a dual UK-US citizen from birth.
  • I've lived in the US since I was 13.
  • My home in the US is North Shore Chicago.
  • I am currently a junior at University of Southern California, so I currently reside in Los Angeles for most of the year.
  • I'm studying towards a self-designed major in Social Inequality and Human Rights.
  • I'm a huge sports fan and I support Pittsburgh Penguins, Chicago Wolves, Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls, Chicago Cubs, Wolves F.C. and Leicester Tigers.
  • The reason Chicago Blackhawks are NOT my NHL team, are I support Chicago Wolves in the NHL, and if you support one then you don't support the other. I chose the Pens as my NHL team as Penguins are my favorite animals. As good as reason as any to pick a team in my book!
  • Away from sports, I'm a huge fan of Supernatural, and if I'm not watching hockey then I'm probably watching Supernatural on DVD!
  • I'm a progressive Christian - don't let the word Christian put you off - Google 'progressive Christian' and see that we're not all bad!
  • I'm politically liberal and have no time for hardline/fundamental Republicans who believe their religious beliefs should define law/policy. Religion has no place in Government.
  • I'm a lifelong vegetarian, having been raised as such by my "hippy" parents (they're not actually hippy!), but I don't push that on other people.
  • I respect the beliefs and opinions of others, and ask mine be respected too. However, when people attack my beliefs/opinions, I'll damn well defend them!
  • I'm pretty laidback, approachable and friendly, but that of course, depends on the other person!
