So.....where da hell do I even begin?

For the recent week I have been busy (to put it lightly)
Much work and too little sleep....
Because of this update being so overly informative, I will split it up in two posts.

Red Room;
A project I've written and partly directed last year had its premiere 2 weeks ago.
It was supposed to premiere in November already but got delayed after me quitting the project.
The reason to this is because of some depictions between me and my project partner. He didn't like my work so he tried to kick me out, but it ended up being me quitting, telling him to handle the project on its own. Since then actors have jumped off, been replaced and pretty much been deformed from its original skeleton.
And my partner has tried to take away every cred from my take on the project.

I watched the play after 6 months of wait, and I must say that I have learned a valuable lesson about art.
NEVER allow someone with a different mind setting to interfere with your visions!
The play has gone from being a psychedelic thriller about stereotypes and natural instincts to a messy chock-fest without rime or reason.

At first I was pretty cringed about the turnout, but I later discovered that my partner goofed really hard. In his try to erase my participation in the play he has instead put himself in a hotspot where he has to stand for everything wrong about the play, since there is no point to be shown in it anymore.
So in a way Im glad he did what he did, so I won't have to wash my hands off or the after taste I had experiencing this miscarriage of a stage play xD
But at the same time Im disappointed it turned out this way since it actually could have been a decent and interesting short-play :/

Sidenote: Even before my abdication he started to spread some really nasty rumors about me just to make sure that no one wanted to have me around (which doesn't actually bother me since I moved from that shithole up to Stockholm) and the more the time has passed by, the more details I hear about it.
The funny and ironic part about it is that he has succeeded in talking over pretty much everyone I've ever worked with for the past 4 years xD
It's hysterical and kind of funny, for they SHOULD know who I am and how up front honest I am about my work and my opinions to things in general.
But nope, everything he've told them about me "not giving a shit about my work" and how I "left the project hanging like a dead cause" they totally believe.
I should be mad, but I just chuckle at it, because it only proves how insanely stupid my so called "friends" actually are!
But the true ones that actually have cared and that actually asks me first before judging by a rumor are still here, and they help and love me like I them



So, yeah! That's the "ranting" part of my update!
It's not really about the nag, it's more about how far a betrayal can go before it gets out of hand, and what the consequences are for doing that kind of actions. He tried to fuck me over, and in return he got nothing at all.
And I've tried to stay put and just watched the process flow by, but by now, after everything, I felt it was time to talk about it, and here it is!

Betrayal is the true exposure, when it occurs, leave it to die, you won't need a leech that blows you the wrong way!
And if someone tries to steal your work/art, stand tall and take it back!
(unless it has been manipulated, then you try to erase your fingerprints on what once WAS your piece)
