Amanda vs. VUW

As far as I'm concerned, the battle is over and I won. I'm expecting that my cease and desists will be respected, and that I've clearly proven that I came up with my original material when I wasn't enrolled as a student. - However, I have a few remaining questions. Stop pretending to like me, and give me answers that are based on your own self-interest: How much did your people project that my film would bring in re: international students? Tens of millions? If so, then why did you refuse to pay me the $50,000? Because I'm some ghetto trannie that you thought wasn't aware of such things as IP? - I'm sorry that Michelle can't make her film, but I really tried to allow her to do that. Sorry, Meesh, but I can't give away my script for free: I need to live somewhere nicer and that is what VUW could have done for me by paying me fairly. However, you're a writer, so why don't you write your own version? Stephen wrote a version of that story; I wrote a version of that story, so why not you? I don't consider student accommodation or the Lilburn residence a step up. I mean, my boarding house has better insulation than the Lilburn place and I much prefer living with poor adults than poor students. Otherwise, I expect my Māori language skills will eventually result in me getting one of those steady jobs in editing that exist in the public sector.

I've been told by Apple Corps that he's in cryogenic storage, meaning he's legally dead. I'd suggest that it's poor form to pretend he's alive if you were already aware of this. That's all.
