well, she's here. thank god there is an entire planet between us. we had to share an assembly room back at jpl. never again.

oh god, there she goes. good luck, sis.

now they're totally walking on eggshells around me. it's a nice change from all the orders, but i feel really bad about it. i can't even make a plea for attention properly. at least they're all focusing on opportunity. for once i'm really glad of it.

wow, that really freaked them out. it was just a joke! sigh.

(i know i don't really need to tell you guys, but plz don't point nasa at this journal.)

LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU

no, i'm not going to do anything stupid. don't worry. i just need time to think.

i can't take this anymore. you'll miss me when i'm gone.

can't i just explore mars in my own way? i don't need this constant ordering around! when do i get to make my own choices, anyway? it's my life, after all.

check it out, i can't believe this was my home for 6 months.
