I'm in a tricky situation. A very tricky situation. One that I don't know how to get out of, or even deal with. I can feel the stress of it starting to overwhelm me, and I know I'm not the kind of person to let stress affect me. I've arranged a visit with the counselor and I really am hoping he can help me with what to do. There are so many paths which I can take, but how would I know which one is the right one? I have a respect for Drake that he can't see, but what I'm being asked to do is essentially going against him and to be honest what I stand for.
I was given my orders by a Rear-Admiral, so could I have really said no to those orders? That probably would have meant my career with Starfleet.
Okay, I know I'm the person to do things for beneficial gain, but there's no rewards for this. This is just outright wrong. Drake has had enough issues to deal with in his life, let alone another one. Especially one from his family.
I hope Paul will be able to help.
I do still try and get out as much as I can and have a bit of a social life, but with this stress, that's getting harder for me to do. What if the people I've made close friends with decide to judge me on what I have been asked to do? What was I supposed to do? What would they have done?
So many questions.
There's been so much going on lately on Vanguard, the protests, the talks, just more and more things always happening. I want to be in the right mind frame to deal with all of this and stay myself throughout it all. I want to be in the correct mind when Drake finally blows. He is a volcano waiting to erupt.
Every day that passes, volcano day is just one more step nearer!
