Ship's Log | To Boldly Go

It will be good to go home though I will miss people. Two weeks and we will be home. It's hard to believe.

I'd like to take a moment to publicly apologize for any inconvenience or discomfort that anyone may have recently felt. It was not my intention to harm anyone. But it did provide good results. Stay tuned.

Given I took time off as asked I do hope you did too.

I feel like I'm never going to be able to catch up on work, even though I know logically I should, eventually. Maybe next time instead of three weeks, I'll just take one off!

Did anyone bring back and souvenirs they're excited about?

So I finally made it down here as promised a couple of days ago and I admit I glad I did. Despite that I admit I am growing restless and am looking forward to getting back to my work. There's only so much lounging around that I can do before becoming bored. Is anyone else having this problem? There's plenty to do I just keep thinking about the pile of work I have waiting for me back on the ship.

I must say, between the spa and the incredible shopping opportunities, I'd be just as happy to stay on Risa for at least the next month. I bought a fur. Quite soft, and not actually made of any real animal. I'm impressed that they are able to make a synthetic that is so close to the real thing. Normally I would never buy a fake fur, but the quality is spectacular.

Before I left the ship, I woke one day to find some of my clothing from back home in my closet. That was delightful. Now I have my original frocks and don't need to replicate new ones. Has anyone else woken up to find something that wasn't there the day before?

MCU/Med Bay Crew (separately)

If my calculations are right, Christmas is fast approaching. Do we wish to organise something as a group?

I had a strange dream or my brain is fried.

Ah, wonderful, glorious relaxation.

Not on Risa. On the ship.

Today I start my 4-day shift on the ship. And Jim's not here to tell me not to sit in his chair. So I'm in his chair. And I like it.

Actually, I think technically I'm the senior-most officer on board and I belong in said chair.

Please, no one contract any diseases from your pleasure seeking over the next four days. Because I won't be there.

It is hard to believe that I have been here a month already.

Medical Team

Hello,

I don't know if I've met all of you but I'm Helen Cho. At home I was a leading researcher in the field of Genetics as well as a qualified Doctor. I've been approved to work with you in both capacities as required.

I do look forward to working with you all.

MCU People

I realise that there are a lot of you here, many that I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet. I hope we can change that at some point?

All right, all right.

Birthdays. Everyone's got one. Leave your birthday here so I can keep a running tab. And yes, I know I can look at my PADD and everything, but this will be faster.

ALSO I know that some of you might not have birthdays that follow the normal calendar? Or, you know, the calendar we all go by? The Federation one? I don't know. It's mostly the same as the one I know only with just numbers and such instead of months but ANYway.

Basically, if you don't know how to match up your birthday (or don't know your birthday?) with the calendar we all use, maybe now's the time to pic a birthday??

Hello? I'm Helen Cho and I've just recently arrived. What can people tell me about this situation besides the initial briefing?
