Thomas Janeway/Personal Log

Janeway's Personal Logs Log Title Stardate Log Body Arriving on the USS Atlantis 239112.10 As a new ensign aboard the USS Atlantis, I must report to the Captain about the whereabouts of the ship. I plan to be efficient, dedicated, and professional at all times. Unqualified Officers 239112.24 The ship that I am on seems sufficient for what I will need. We are on a mission inspecting a time rift in space, yet Lt. Mattingly doesn't seem to understand anything about computers. I suppose that this is what an engineer is for. I will do my best to help anyone in need - when they need it. Recovery 239201.05 Today I went to visit the Chief Engineer, Lt. Gwen Gardener. She appears to have been through some sort of injury, but as I have just met her and was not there at the time of the accident, I do not know what type of accident she was involved in. I truly hope that as a fellow engineer she and I will be able to understand eachother. Logic and Confusion 239201.05 (ENCRYPTED LOG) Today I experienced a sensation which shouldn't occur for another two years. I began to think of the young woman I loved on Vulcan, K'Pek, and to wish to be with her. I hope that this is only temporary. After all, the time rift may have had unusual effects on me. The symptoms will probably dissipate in a few days. A Crushed Replicator 239201.06 (ENCRYPTED LOG) The symptoms have gotten worse. I became ANGRY earlier and physically assaulted my personal replicator in my quarters. I do not have time to fix it, but I will as soon as possible. Maybe I should visit sickbay. Party Crasher 239201.14 (ENCRYPTED LOG) I cannot believe what I have just done. Last night, I declared KOON-UT-KAL-IF-FEE (The Vulcan tradition of fighting for one's mate) and I attacked Lt. Shar'Wyn Foster. Then, I kidnapped his girlfriend and took her to my quarters. We mated, and now I believe that she is pregnant. What will I tell my father? How will I ever speak to Lt. Gardener or Lt. Foster ever again? The effects have not yet completely worn off, and I still experience guilt. I have contacted the captain, and he will meet with me in sickbay. What happens next is up to him. Serving Time 239201.16 It has finally come down to prison. Not exactly a Federation penitentiary, but I still lie behind a forcefield. Whatever it takes I will maintain dignity, respect, and honor. I will not allow this to be the end of my career, nor allow it to be a cause for demotion. Let this be a lesson to those behind me. (THE FOLLOWING TEXT IS ENCRYPTED) Never go through Pon Farr without one of these three things: 1. A Vulcan Master 2. A Mate 3. A sickbay with a specific hormonal lowering hypospray. I made the mistake of having neither of those three. A Talk with the Captain 239201.17 I was able to talk to the captain today. I was very surprised at the fact that he didn't seem upset when he came in. This is odd because: a. I fought with two officers of higher rank than me b. I seriously injured one of those officers c. He's already had a depressed/angry disposition over the last few days. So, when he came in calm and orderly, no anger on his face, I was shocked. Eventually he told me something that I can't believe that he would do. (THE FOLLOWING TEXT IS ENCRYPTED) He stated that he was protecting me. He told me he cared about me, and he listened with interest to my problems. Thank you, captain, for your discrete wisdom and caring nature.
