About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) Hi, the names Huzi, Hussey,Mr.Hughes Bubba or Blairy and im 22 from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, Milkyway.But im currently living in newmarket, whish is outside cambridge in england as im teaching in a small rural school. I love rock n roll (anything that gets my feet and head tapping, like a low bass, smart lyrics, lots of kicks and licks and plenty of skins slapping). Unfortunately in this era of music capitalism, it is harder to communicate the ART of music to people. To me, music is art (well the music i listen too), its high culture, not low culture like MTV, Video Hits, Austereo network, Australian idol....that's not music, and dont let Kate De Raguletto pasta fool you!!!! Music is all about the Art, buying the record, owning that epoch in time, seeing a LOCAL band or checking out the street press. I will never forget the day i bought Powderfinger's "Double Allergic" from the stinky Record Exchange in Adelaide st, Brisbane in 1997 or seeing the Rolling Stones (2003/2006) to Giants of Science (Brisbane's best local band)to seeing john fogerty from CCR or getting backstage and meeting neil finn from crowded house/split enz or to seeing the beginnings of andrew morris and the dry bones, the amazingly talented band from brisbane . To live music, is to live life. A world without music, would be terrible, maybe a world without pollutants such as some money hungry fake music personalities would be ok! .

My Interests

Social justice, education, mental health, rock n roll, youth issues, crime and justice, alcohol and drugs, media in society, fairness in reporting, camping and hiking, travelling, reading, studying, always learning new things, driving, ipodding, being with friends, film.

We are all the same, screw being mean to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!E DUCATION: producing life long learners, myself includedMEDIA: ownership/fair reporting/ non bais.anti-commercialism, anti-ads ruling the world. cash for commentROCK N ROLL: well yer of course!BULLYING: workplace and schoolADOLESCENT ISSUES: violence, bullying, crime, drugs, employment......WHY DOES YOUTH HAVE TO ALWAYS BE THE PROBLEM OF SOCIETY??????? Young people are so mature, but never get a chance to shine, instead they are continually put down and they have no outlet to challenge often old, sterotypical and uneducated views from midlde/high class australia and pethetic social commentators like naomi robson etc.CRIME AND DRUGS: Having studied a degree in behavioral studies, i know a fair bit of information about drugs and crime and feel that these are important issues, especially for youth. Is there really a problem with ICE, like the media wants us to beleive?GLOBALISATION: we live in complex times, full of uncertainty...casualisation is a major problem (even more so with new IR laws) and it is such an important issue for employment, especially if you are a young person. .
