MPV.....my point of view!
Copycat

I recall the time when I got punished during my first week of high school,(form one) for 'copying'.Actually,I was helping a friend draw the Egyptian hieroglyphics for our history homework.(Not such a good idea).Anyway we did our punishment,and my friend and I are still very good friends.

Copying.Something that most of us have probably done,especially in school,with homeworks and assignments.I only did that when I was too lazy to think,(didn't get caught),but I was smart,and preferred to be the author of my own work.Copying is a bad practice. Thou shalt refrain from copying.

People have no respect for "[c]Copyright All Rights Reserved''.I put it on all my work yet I still find other people plagiarizing my stuff,or using,(without my consent),as content for their own work.Seriously??How low can you go?Yes,this is a public forum,but because I have reserved rights to my writing,ne touche pas.(Or at least be decent enough to give me credit for the genius ideas).

There are a lot of 'thieves' in this country.People who steal other people's work.The ones who do not respect that copyright sign.They steal ideas,songs,lyrics,poetry,books,movies etc.Some do not pay for services given towards them,others want freebies,(to be on the guest-list,or jump into shows for free).Cheap!

I am a writer and an artist and I am sick and tired of 'pirates'.(You want to join Jack Sparrow?).People who photocopy original books,burn cds,jump into shows for free,(without the performer's consent),use ideas that are not their own are thieves.(Vanhu vakadaro vanofanirwa kunyara).Y'all removing the authenticity and quality of our work.You are also removing credibility on our career resumes and robbing us of our earnings.This is our livelihood.

Not all of us are cut out to have white collar,or blue collar professions,and wait on an employer to for a wage or salary.So whether it is a local,or international writer,musician,artist,poet,or it is a performance,buy,or pay,i repeat,remove money from your pockets for the original stuff.We get paid by SALES.

I am ORIGINAL.I love to pay for original material.I am not cheap,and unless I am offered a freebie,like being put on another artists guest-list,or VIP,I pay way into a show.

BEWARE OF CHEAP IMITATIONS!

Eldom: Originality is the best quality.

P.S: Always write your own love story.

Ciao!

Single ladies: Wife material

MPV.....my point of view! Single Ladies: Wifen Material *Royal wave*Hey single ladies,your guide is back.The pursuit for Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It is on.Today I would like to make you a get-a-ring-on-it lady. Now following my articles,'Single Ladies Part 3',where I talked about the prince searching for a 'real princess',or 'Queen';and 'Brown Sugar',where the word 'brown sugar' was defined as wifen material,I would like to talk about 'wifey material'.(Whether we are that). How do we single ladies get that ring-on-it,you ask?By being wifey material.My uncle keeps on telling me,'If you want to become Mrs X,you should be a wife.You are a wife before he puts a ring on it'.What he means is that,a man will treat you the way you portray yourself.How,you ask? Ever noticed the difference between a wife and a girlfriend.Now let me break it down for you.A girlfriend usually,takes life in a more leisurely way;unlike a wife,whose focus is mo...

Script My Life: Love By the 10th Date

Finding love shouldn’t be a duty but it should be a journey that you enjoy the ride while you get to it... I don’t remember when was the last time I related to a number of female characters in one movie. I finally watched Lifetime movie ‘Love By the 10th Date’. The trailer to the movie, written and directed by Nzingha Stewart, enticed me for a good chick flick...about women of colour. The all star cast includes the gorgeous Kelly Rowland, Meagan Good, Keri Hilson and Kellee Smith. We also see Cat Deely, Joshua T Jackson, Andra Fuller and UnReal’s Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman. The story line follows a group of young, successful black friends who work for a high end, digital magazine Nina. The protagonist is Gabrielle Fateful a.k.a Gabby played by Meagan Good. Gabby is a graphic designer at Nina whose love life is an actual struggle. The scene that kickstarts the plot of the movie is when Gabby goes out for dinner with friends and workmates, Margot (Kelly Rowland), Bi...

Single Ladies: Thank You, Next!

I just had the most vivid dream about my high school crush ! I think I love him! But that's a conversation for another day. Hey single ladies, (Beyoncé wave)! How are you beautiful goddesses? I am fine thank you. The journey is so exciting and evolutionary. To imagine where we started from six years ago to date, the amount of internal change and personal growth. Like you, I'm still single, but I'm now single with a purpose. And I can safely say that I am ready for Mr Put-a-ring-on-it, and the whole shebang - flaws and all. Even my brother's girlfriend affirmed that I am a mature woman ready to settle down. But it's not the narrative for all the single ladies and that's okay! My older sister and I always have these conversations about personal growth and self love. She is a wellness and mental health consultant with a background in psychiatry. I am a work in progress with a nursing background, psychology and psychiatry included. I also use my personal e...

Script My Life: Marry Me

If you want something different, you have to do something different! Woo, Jennifer Lopez really grated the cheese on this rom-com but I love it! Yes, this Valentines day, J Lo reminds us of all our fantasies of what really love should be. Jenny has always been a girl who loves love. So art somewhat imitates life. Following her reunion with former fiancé, Ben Affleck, we are definitely seeing Jenny from the Block 2.0. Who knew that getting back together with 'the one that got away' two decades later would revive romantically in J lo? We all know that Jennifer loves to be booed up. She's been married three times, engaged five or six (I've lost count). I believe relationship experts would consider her a love addict. But that's none of our business! Just in time for Valentines day, a romantic comedy simply titled, "Marry Me". The stars Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson, Maluma, John Bradley, Sarah Silverman, and Chloe Coleman. The movie opens with the title trac...

The Writings On The Wall

Thou shall move onto the next! And then 'If You Leave' by Destiny's Child and Next starts to play. Gosh, 'The Writings on the Wall' remains my favourite Destiny's Child album, ever. The concept of the '10 commandments' of relationships. Brilliant! Bonjour, mes amies! Comment ça va? Ça va bien! (Caribbean accent) Your gyal , moi , has been experiencing epiphanies. And a few disappointments, but life is too sweet to be upset. Lick your ice cream and have sweet red wine! I travelled through the blogosphere for inspiration for our topic today. Ironically, I also had a discussion with an acquaintance about a similar topic. There's nothing that I love more than people who brag about their intelligence. Oh, my! People pride themselves on their levels of education, often equating it to intelligence. We assess our value based on having degrees, master's degrees, and doctorates. If only those worked in relationships. I think of David Robson's '...
