Background information and interests

My Name is Rose. I love to travel. I love Ugg Boots, hot water bottles and Harry Potter. And I am a born again Cultural Studies Enthusiast. My first introduction to Cultural studies was like the proverbial light switch being turned on, and I don’t think that I have ever fully recovered from the electric shock! I am continually trying to reconcile my obsession with popular culture, like reality television, (Average Jo, Australian Idol), horrid American drama’s (The OC, Young Americans, Dawson’s Creek, etc), and my fear that we live, eat and breath the superficial. I am fascinated by; identity politics, post-colonialism and fan(atic)s.
