Yeah
I don’t .. I don’t want it to be a career .. ‘cause I, I don’t think there’s much .. you know, money in .. in horses at all .. so I sort of .. I wanna .. It’s more of a .. a relaxing sort of ... hobby more than anything … yeah …
‘cause it’s nice just to get on a horse if you’ve had a bad day and sort of like go out onto the road, you know .. and walking through the bush ‘cause we live up near um .. a forest .. so that’s really good to go riding in
Well when you finish school, and hopefully you’ll be studying anthropology
Yeah @@
Um .. have you thought about which university you’d like to go to?
I actually like to go to one in England .. um
Right
@@@
Which one?
Major interest .. um .. Well see, I’m, I’m debating ‘cause
I’m also .. obviously really into music .. as well
Yeah, yep
And .. um ... cause I also wanna do music, and I also love drama and I do all the Shakespeare and things like that .. so … it’s sort of … interesting @@
Right
So but .. um … I wanna do more … Yeah I sort of .. I s’pose
Cardiff .. Cardiff is sort of interesting .. in Wales so
Yes
Yeah and .. um …and more sort of ‘round like ‘round like
London as well .. and
What is it about Cardiff that?
Oh, I just think it’s .. ‘cause Wales is so beautiful ..
RF3:
BH6F:
RF3:
BH6F:
RF3:
BH6F: and .. um .. also one of my favourite … singers who went to
Cardiff University too so I s’pose that’s prob’ly coming into my … me wanting to go there
Have you been over there yourself?
I haven’t .. I’m dying to .. but .. yeah .. I, I, I’ve actually never been out of .. New South Wales, Austra .. um .. Adelaide … and Victoria .. so I’ve been in these three states all my life .. It’d be interesting
If you won Tattslotto .. what would you do?
Prob’ly go to England [@@@]
[@@@]
Yeah, you know, ‘cause it’s just a .. or India … um .. somewhere different, you know, just to see .. it’s … I mean
I’d prob’ly go to England .. yeah but .. I’m .. I still really want to go to India .. cause their sort of culture .. that’s over there and their music and .. their lifestyle ..
RF3:
I mean obviously there’s a lot of places that you wouldn’t go to in India .. cause you .. bit of a .. you know … sort of run down and, and .. there’s heaps of people that live there too so it’s sort of very crowded … Just to find out more about .. like their more .. like I said, like enchanting and magical places are where I’d like to go to
Yeah .. okay ... So what do you see yourself doing in ten years time?
BH6F: Oh, I’d love to be playing at Wembley in ten years time with my band
RF3: @@@
BH6F: That’d be my .. that’d be my dream, yeah … um .. ‘cause I ..
I’m a real .. dreamer .. like I don’t really … I like .. I

I think that if you dream more, you know, you’re sort of more positive and .. you don’t get stuck held back by depression by .. you know, depression and things like that so .. yeah, I’d like to think I’d be playing at Wembley in ten years
Well …You’re obviously into music, so which is your favourite musical instrument that you enjoy playing?
Base
Base
But I sing .. I sing
Do you?
That’s my main thing, yeah … I sing and play base … Very hard to do ‘cause you sort of go .. co-ordinate it all right .. yeah … I love the base ‘cause it’s got so much power
Right
That’s why it’s good
What about a classical instrument?
Huh … Cello
Yeah?
I like listening to cello. I started to pick up the cello actually … but .. um .. it wasn’t sort of my instrument
‘cause I had to sit there for hours going .. you know .. trying to do sort of … you know, scales and things .. and, with base, it’s more improvising and you can .. like you can pick it up pretty easily
Yeah
So it’s good … It’s a fun instrument
@@
Yeah … but I like listening to cello .. and I think cello’s got places in .. in pop records as well, you know
Right .. yeah .. What about a violin? Does that have a place in pop records?
Yeah, I think it does. Well my dad’s actually a musician and he’s .. for of like violin .. and cello
Yeah
Yeah .. I’ve sort of been influenced by Dad ‘cause um he’s been in the business since 1972 so
Oh, I see
So he’s been there .. and .. sort of .. he’s a, a great song writer and .. I think, in .. you know, individuality and origination are so … I think all these sort of like .. originality sort of … really good ‘cause … you hear so many things that sound like .. each other, you know
Yes
They sort of blend into
Yeah
Another … and it’s nice to hear something different .. every now and then
Yeah … that’s interesting … yes … So you’ll be heading overseas as soon as you finish school?
Definitely, yeah
@@@
Sound like I really wanna get out of Australia … It’s not the case
And is [IDENTIFYING MATERIAL REMOVED] going with you?
Definitely, yeah
@@@
And I’ve just asked ??? Hopefully we’ll have a drummer by then. We’re tring to find one @@ It’s very hard

[Your base teacher] Yeah, that doesn’t surprise me RF3:
BH6F:
RF3:
BH6F:
Mr[IDENTIFYING MATERIAL REMOVED]; he’s really good
Yeah
Um .. but, no .. um … I like … ? … I like um .. I like Mr
[IDENTIFYING MATERIAL REMOVED] actually, he’s a good
RF3:
BH6F:
RF3:
BH6F: teacher ‘cause he’s got .. new ideas and .. and he’s creative and .. um
You like English?
I love English
Yeah
Yeah, I love .. I .. I’m really sort of not so clever actually, but I love writing and I think got some very .. pretty good talent there, sort of … so I … I like writing ..
RF3:
BH6F:
RF3:
BH6F:
It’s just something .. I like doing ‘cause you can express so much through it .. like you can through music
Yes
Hmm, what other teachers do I like? .. I’ll try to think … um … Oh, I love Mr [IDENTIFYING MATERIAL REMOVED]. He’s really good .. and he’s also my House Master .. and he teaches me ??? .. so he’s really good .. he’s um … ??? and he sort of makes it interesting .. oh …I don’t like teachers like .. like .. I can, I can say their names; I feel good [@@@]
[@@@]
Um .. Mr [IDENTIFYING MATERIAL REMOVED] and Mr [IENTIFYING
MATERIAL REMOVED] .. He’s my maths and science teachers ..
‘cause I’m not .. I’m one of those really creative people that’s sort of … anyone who says maths and science and I sort of go … @ I don’t really want to do that @ … So ..
RF3:
BH6F:
RF3:

RF3:
BH6F: yeah, I just sort of .. I think they get too bogged down in like .. you know, texts books and they try and .. make things as complicated as possible and, you know, when you’re just trying to … do something .. you know, simple .. you can find a simple way to do it so .. I think maths is getting really screwed up because like … you hardly need .. and like .. I was talking to my mum actually, last night, and she that, you know, you don’t need any of that stuff, and she hasn’t used like, you know, Z equals Y plus, you know, S, you know .. since, you know .. I mean she’s never used it
Right
In real, in real life, you know. I mean you can .. I mean
I s’pose they, you know, do these things so .. for people that wanna .. excel in maths and stuff
Yeah
I might .. I’m thinking of dropping maths next year actually
Are you allowed to drop it next year?
I’m not sure @@@ I want to … Yeah, I sort of .. I wanna ..
I like it like … when .. I want to do in Year 12 like um … sociology .. and … things like that, like more interesting things
Right
So like can be a bit more creative

Yeah .. okay .. It’s a girls’ team?
Yeah, we’ve got .. I actually played last year
Right
But .. um … Our school .. We beat Mary McKillop by um eight nil so we were really pleased @@
@@
It was rather good. They had all their defenders up in the goals and we still got .. past them so .. that was fun … then we had a big mud fight so that was good
@@
But I think I .. I’m not sounding really horrible here to
AFL but I can’t stand AFL
Can’t you?
No .. I just .. I think I like soccer because it makes more sense .. like it’s … to me it .. it seems more like a .. a sort of classy .. a more a sort of intelligent sport .. and um
Why is that?
I think ‘cause .. I just see .. every time you go and .. like, you know that.. you watch TV and there’s AFL on, you know, they’re all .. having this big brawl on it and .. insulting each other and .. sort of, you know, they’re … got all these teeth missing and it seems like .. @@@ and I sort of get this really bad picture of an AFL player
Do you?
And like the interviews too with the AFL players are sort of like “Oh yeah, how’d ya play yesterday?” “(MUMBLE)” …
It’s .. You look and the TV going “Hmm” … And so I like watching .. watching the soccer. It’s good .. cause it’s sort of a cleaner sport and .. you sort of … I mean they do get injured but .. it’s more like … not .. like .. by being punched up or getting caught, you know, taking someone out ???? ankle goes on them though .. going to get the ball or something … Yeah, but it’s a good sport; I like it .. Oh yeah, and of course I like um .. my horse sport as well
Yeah … Did you watch the Olympics last year?
I watched some of it .. yeah
The equestrian [events]?
[Yeah] ..that was brilliant ‘cause Australia won again.
Maybe they’ll start .. That’s another thing that really annoys be about Australia .. um .. They sort of don’t .. pay any attention to their .. equestrian. I mean they’ve won dual gold now .. and like they still like .. they go
“Oh yeah, the women’s hockey team .. and .. and the Kieren
Perkins” and they .. they sort of .. the equestrian people just sort of come backwards to them like, you know, silver
