"I loved your poignant re-telling of the movie. It shed an entirely different light on the statement that Riddick made at the end of the movie. It was an indication that he had, in fact, regained his humanity through Carolyn's sacrifice. You write beautifully. Keep up the good work." --Colaine

"very good." --shelby

Those were the two reviews I got for my Pitch Black fic--Not for me. The first one totally made my day. I was on a high for so many hours just thinking of what the reviewer said. He/she left an e-mail address, so I'm gonna e-mail him/her with thanks.

Went to Kino. today. Bought Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick. Spent almost $30. But it was all worth it. Reading about Riddick again...it was awesome. Now...just to empty my savings and buy the two different versions of Pitch Black DVDs...lol. I sound like I am insane. But what the heck? I'm willing to spend so much because of a few reasons:

1) I don't usually buy things for myself. I think things through a whole lot before I usually buy anything. Even for a CD, I can take up to one or two months to decide...going around Singapore to find the lowest price. Habit: courtesy of my dad. Haha.

2) When I buy things, 8 times out of 10 I get them because they mean something to me; they've touched me in a way nothing else can. That's why I'm willing to spend so much on Batman, X-Men, Riddick, LotR etc. I spend time, effort, money...researching...knowing more about them...all because they add to my identity, who I am...who I want to become. They're not pointless things usually.

So...yes. Pitch Black, here I come. And the Chronicles of Riddick too.
