I dip my toes in—feels cold. My nerves rise up and spread like fire throughout my body while I watch—while I wait. Stomach hurts. All those butterflies clash and crowd. They come every time that I race—it never fails. There is so much noise—the splash of water, talking, yelling, whistling, cheering. Can’t think. My body shakes and screams from the tension. Heart pounding, nerves tingling, every muscle contracted. Stop. Focus. Deep breath and close everything out. I shut my eyes and the turbulent

Hobart, Tasmania, but little of this would include its local aboriginals. Hobart was considered a home to the nomadic Mouheneer tribe (Asia Rooms, 2011), very little is written about them except in brief passages in most sources that detail the history of the area. Generally, what follows after the Mouheneer is that Hobart was first settled by the English for purposes of using it as a penal colony. The impact to the natives would best be viewed from the standpoint of the colonization of Tasmania (Mother

The federation of the six self-governing colonies of Australia into a federal Commonwealth of Australia was a radical change to system of Government in Australia, but one that reflected the pre-existing realities of Australian society. At the time it was clear that the federal government should be given complete control over defence, customs and currency - the motives for federation - but by that point the colonies were proud of their achievements in the economic and social spheres and would not

human societies by making disastrous decision that damaged the ecosystem. How on earth could a society make such an obviously disastrous decision as to cut down all the trees on which it depends? Since this phenomenon happened repeatedly in human history, historians and archaeologists are asking the question of why societies fail by making disastrous decisions. To answer this question, though this is a complex subject by not having a single answer fitting the all situations, societies may collapse
tell us some stories, and let us pay attention to them. I learned a lot in this lecture, especially how to design a good sign. When I learned some principles to design interpretive signs, these things reminded me of my trip to Tasmania. Several months ago, I went to Tasmania. During this trip, I visited Port Arthur, a former convict settlement and now as a famous museum. This was my first time to visit

These left human cargoes behind and, unlike earlier visitors, had an immediate impact on the Aborigines, who suffered interference with their economy and lifestyle as the colonists sought and secured for themselves good sources of water, sheltered positions, and access to fish—all of which were also vital to Aboriginal people. The perception that Australia was quietly “settled” without conflict with the Aboriginal
Bangarra Dance Theatre’s phenomenon entitled Mathinna entails the awe-inspiring, yet historically enlightening journey of an Aboriginal girl who was taken from her home and forced to conform to the westernised norms of the 1800’s. In an era plagued by racism and prejudice, Mathinna emanates the themes of colonialism, and cultural intolerance. Following the viewing of this scintillating production it is undeniably clear that the architect of Mathinna, Stephen Page, has deliberately intended to shed

The crime of genocide is one of the most devastating human tragedies throughout the history. And the word genocide refers to an organised destruction to a specific group of people who belongs to the same culture, ethnic, racial, religious, or national group often in a war situation.
