lost in Australian Identity

I m getting a writer's block. And a bit lost in my Australian Identity documentary script/treatment process.

I think it's going to be somewhat autobiographical.

"I am a bit confuse about my identity I guess. I don't have an Aussie accent, I have more of an American accent, but I hold an Australian passport. I am a fan of the socceroos and I don't really care for the American football team."

"I think part of me is dealing with the memory that Chinese can not be Australian. We can only be half-Australian according to my old classmates from high school."

But now that I am back, Australia is a lot different now, especially Sydney. I feel less alone now being a Chinese.

I don't think there was or ever will be an absolute consensus on what is "Australian", a lot of it is personal.
