Well, so what? I'm a rock star!

So, Christmas hey? That was like, three months ago. Dear God I'm slack. Nothing like having an assignment due to motivate you to write blog entries, though. And what an assignment... assessing stereotypes of Aboriginality in the media and public response to Aboriginal art...in 750 words. Or perhaps a thesis. But if anyone out there has an opinion on Richard Bells "Scientifica e Metaphysica" (Bell's Theorem), which deserved to win the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award for the witty name alone, I'd be ecstatic to hear them.

So, Christmas, hey? Below is what I think is the best photo from our fun frolics in tropical Townsville; my nieces and nephews with their favourite (or at least loudest) Christmas present of Rock Band. Now I've downloaded the photos I've realised I was a bit slack with them this year. There's no grand vistas of the Strand or shots of palm trees. I promise to do better next time.



Photo: I think what my youngest niece is doing is singing into a microphone, not eating a fruit roll-up. Aren't they all just having a ball? Now that is what Christmas is all about. Forget us drunken adults, this is where it's at.
