I know how it feels
like when somebody copied your own work. I bet every does hate it the same way
I do.
I remember a month or
few weeks after the first day of school, we were ask to write a speech about
three of our most feared things for public speaking 1 and it was a group
activity. It only composed of 1 partner, but the worst part is being partnered
with a lazy person. I won't mention a name for some reason but I'm going to
tell what that person exactly did that traumatized me when it comes on trusting
people again.
We started to talk to
each other about three of our most feared things. At first, I really have a bad
feeling that it's the kind of person who will do something bad and awful. It just
asked me to borrow my work; I thought it just wants an idea on how it will
write its own speech. Then, Sir Nomer asked for a volunteer. "I volunteer",
it objected "No." Sir asked if my partner is ready and it respond
that it's not ready. Sir Nomer skipped us, I was very nervous that time, my
heart was beating very fast probably detected something bad might happened. It
took twenty persons (estimated) until it's our turn. I expected it has
something to say after a long time of wait. We went in front, it went to speak
first because one of the rules is the person who's named is called will go
first before its partner. As it reads its own speech, I was shocked.
It has the same
conclusion like mine. I was frustrated. I want to humiliate that person in
front of everyone showing how shit it was. But what it doesn't know is I
already have a backup in case something like this happened. But still, that
didn't calm me down knowing the fact that it copied my work. I did my best to
do better. It turned out great somehow, I managed to end my speech nicely, but
my issue was what just happened during that time gave me a lesson not to trust
anyone, especially when it comes on showing your creativity. Well, it might
copy my work but it will never copy the way I think.
