Hey there!

So, I just realised I haven't updated my journal in 2 years :O

And I have been away from DA for a while but I decided to come back and show you my work. I've been very busy and I have got lots of new stuff, so I hope to promote myself a bit and also inspire some of you that are interested in similar stuff as me.

Anyone from Birmingham, UK? If so, make sure you go to West Bromwich to Queen's Square and have a look at a mini Sandwell college gallery (where River Island used to be)...make sure you check my work (Viktoria Kohajdova) :) :hug:

I'm so sorry this journal entry is so long but i think this would be a good lesson for others as well as for me, i would appreciate if you made the effort and read it. Thank you :)

Basically this whole thing started with my free major college project.

I needed some models to pose for me. I asked my Spanish friend and her friend. They were happy to do it.


After my photoshoot i didn't want to post the photos on facebook because someone could've nicked my ideas, however i took some pictures for my friends which weren't supposed to be for my project but they agreed that i can use them for the project if i want, so basically they were my school pictures as well. I offered to post them on facebook for them, so everyone can see i took them, but my friend said not to post them on there because facebook decreases the quality, she asked me to send them via e-mail. Because she was supposed to be my friend i trusted her.

however, she sent them to her boyfriend(who i hate so much) and he posted my picture on facebook without my permission, claiming it as his. That made me furious, so i went mad and my friend and him, however i didn't swear, i just asked him to remove my picture. Finally he did, and i thought it was over.

But what i found out last sunday was something i'd never expect. First of all, my friend asked me if she can post some pictures i sent her on facebook. I said she can but if she can put up a credit, and tag me. and what i found out through someone else's account? my "friend" posted my pictures without any credit last monday, hid them from me so i couldn't see and edited them as well. i'm sure she did that as a revenge because i had a go at her boyfriend before, because he posted my photo without my permission, and the other reason i believe was that she wanted to show off with my work, but had no intention of putting up a credit.

When i found out we had an argument, because of what she's done and because she claimed    they are her pictures because she's in them, so she can do whatever she wants with them. obviously she never heard of copyrights. she was saying there pictures were meant to be for her and her friend, not for my project, but she knew very well i wanted to use all of the pictures for my project, even though they weren't meant to be for it, it doesn't mean i'm losing the right to use them for anything i want. she just kept repeating herself, then my boyfriend was sticking up for me, so she went mad. she had though deleting him off her friends list on facebook will cover her tracks. i'll admit he swore at her and her boyfriend, but he had some very good reasons.

My "friend": How do you think you are to swear at me and my boyfriend?

My boyfriend:  I think I'm me... the question should be who do you think you are to steal pictures, hide them, lie about it, delete me to cover your tracks, set up a whole level of things... your morality is at question, not mine

My "friend": (she said something about him minding his own business and that she doesn't know him)

My boyfriend: how don't you know me? you've met me a few times. as I said on my first comment, I don't like swearing at people but this really annoyed me. I mean, I hate lying, especially when you were supposed to be vicky's friend. I mean considering swearing is just a case of politeness, lying is historically a very bad crime. Did you know that proven lying in Iran is still punishable with death? Lying in medieval england was punished in a similar way. Never heard anything about swearing like that

My "friend": Don't tell me stories from the past because i don't care. just forget all this.

My boyfriend: All I'm saying is that what you're doing is far worse than me swearing at you for pissing my girlfriend off... Oh well, your idea sounds best. Just remember not to steal anymore pictures from vicky, or lie to her... Let this be a lesson. If you do something idiotic, you always get caught

My "friend": I didn't steal anything, she sent me those pictures, so i can do whatever i want with them.

Me: She was very very stupid. and she will remember that.

My boyfriend: Right Said Fred gave me an album at their show... doesn't mean I can hack it up, change the artwork and say it's my own, does it?

My "friend": You don't know anything. You weren't with us when we were shooting.

My boyfriend: I know more than you think as vicky's been pretty annoyed and I'm a good boyfriend. Either way, I don't really care either... This is just how I like to spend my afternoons...

After she deleted all her comments:

Me:  now it looks like Kieran (my boyfriend) was talking to himself. only cowards try to argue and then delete all comments. then accuse me of calling them stupid which was meant to be said to me, because i was stupid to send some people my pictures. there's no way i'm going to do something like that ever again.

One day i will get over this, but i will remember this because this experience was something i never thought so-called good friend would do. there wil be worse thing that will happen to me but still, i thought i shared this with you guys.

Thank you very much for reading.

Viktoria xx
