We must use carefully chosen words, pictures, and stories to illustrate what we are truely trying to say. Because it is only then that we can truely speak freely.krishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16257496800472890575noreply@blogger.comBlogger905125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5271626.post-712657998428714632013-04-17T19:09:00.000+10:002013-04-17T19:09:36.961+10:00

I've been watching youtube clips of what is fair-use of copyrighted material and what is means to hold a copyright and i've come to the conclusion that this system sucks. Why is it that something that was created by a person, who then created a company around the original idea, can keep makingkrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16257496800472890575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5271626.post-9641716386007282242011-04-03T20:39:00.001+10:002011-04-03T20:41:28.037+10:00rambling meanderingThis weekend marks my 10 years high school reunion. I can hardly believe how quickly time has flown! I could wax lyrical about how 'it feels like only yesterday'...but the truth is, high school seems like a life time ago.

This is a sad, sad reflection on our times, when people must feed off the carcasses of beloved stories from their youths—just because they can't think of an original idea of their own, like I did with my Avengers idea that I made up myself. Obviously I have strong, mixed emotions about something like this.

However you might find it a big strange that the director and stage manager should write a review of their own play.

I hate it when books, movies, music, society use women as a means to get a man something. Whether it's sex, power, or politics women seem to be a means to gratify the ego of some men. I hate that. I have lived all my life in cultures that claimed to be equal and yet there seems to be more and more inequality the older i get.It seems organisations are particularlykrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16257496800472890575noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5271626.post-70972418295855469432010-02-16T09:58:00.003+11:002010-02-16T10:23:03.293+11:00love it or leave itI was a pretty naive girl when i first left my home country.

If you touched the burner, you'd get burned. She never *wanted* me to hurt myself. It was a natural consequence. True, there were many times she was able to stop me before i got hurt, but it was not something she could do all the time.I have taken that lesson with me in life.
