stop, thief!!

i was plagiarised today. at least, i found out about it today. i got a phone call this morning afternoon shortly after i woke up from TheThief, asking if i could help him with some printing. he sounded desperate, with good reason, because his submission was today, and he was already late. and since i was planning to go into the city anyway, and because i also had to get something from the print shop, i decided to head over and see what the problem was. turns out, he didn't know how to set up the files for plotting. didn't surprise me, because he had never bothered to learn. i was starting to get quite irritated, for making the trip just to do something so simple, that he should already know how to do because come on, haven't we been learning this for the past 5 years already?! well when i saw the file that he had opened, i noticed something familiar in one of his elevations. familiar, because i drew it. that's right. the little fountains in front of Beetham Plaza that i measured, the India Buildings that i drew, all the other buildings surrounding our site that i spent sleepless nights drawing out in the unnecessarily meticulous way that i do things, they were all there. in his drawings, which he obviously didn't do. when i asked him about it, his answer angered me even more : "Oh, yes, i got them from D***** (well we'll just call him TheBetrayer, shall we?)." TheBetrayer! we worked in the same group in the first semester, (on the same project that TheThief is now resubmitting, because he failed the first time around) so it's expected that he'd have a copy of the drawings. but it was not his to give away! i expect he didn't think much, if at all, of it, since he wasn't the one spending sleepless nights drawing it. and what pisses me off even more, is that TheThief paid for the drawings, along with some 3D renderings that TheBetrayer did for him. so my drawings were sold off, without my consent, by someone who had No Right to sell them!

i hope the lecturers see right through to the fraud he really is.

and i hope he fucking fails.

I was warned abt the my version of "TheThief" and "TheBetrayer". Attempts were made, but I always gave alibis.

Turn him in with proof that the original work was done by you. Get even. His dumbass would never expect you to do that.

Don't let him walk all over you!
