The official national anthem of Australia, Advance Australia Fair, was composed by Peter Dodds McCormick, a Glasgow-born citizen who used the alias “Amicus” which meant “friend” in the nineteenth century. It was first sung by Andrew Fairfax during a function in Sydney on the celebration of St. Andrew’s Day on November 30, 1878. The song swiftly gained popularity, and soon after was performed by a `ten-thousand-member choir’ with their own amended version at the inaugural ceremony of the Commonwealth of Australia in 1901.

I have always thought of myself as a rebel, but after studying a little bit of the history of African Americans, I realize it is my parents that are the rebels. They were willing to risk everything – their safety, their freedom, even their life – to make things better for me and my generation.

When I was young, I was a tomboy.

I played with the other boys in the street in games like soccer and cricket. I wasn’t remotely interested in dolls or anything girly. I didn’t want to do skipping games, in fact everything the girls in the neighborhood did looked very boring. My toys were also of the tomboy persuasion and I had 10 toys which I played with the most.

Rainy days were often spent inside with my fort.

It was a well built fort with look out posts. The cavalry soldiers guarded it against the Indian invaders. It was probably the best of my favorite 10 toys. I also had a farm, which had pigs, horses, sheep and cattle. There was a big tree and a well. I made the farmer and his wife work very hard, milking the cows and driving the animals to market.

I also had racing cars which were a bit beat up but I loved them anyway.
