A whole lot of "maybe's"
It's as weird feeling over here after almost 3 months. It's actually hard to decscribe. You feel that each person is wrapped in their individual plastic bubble. There is contact, conversation etc., but there is no connection, no spark. It's like being stuck in a bad sitcom. Everybody knows what the joke is, and they'll laugh when it comes, but there is no mirth behind the laughter. There is just existence.
The worst part is, it doesn't feel wrong or anything, there is no feeling; if there is, it does not show. Maybe this is how it is on planet Vulcan. Maybe everyone has undergone some kind of mind control, yours truly included. Emotion could come bottled in a can for all we know.
Maybe this is part of a process of conditioning of the mind, or maybe its just homesickness, or maybe it's something I just do not have the perspective to describe. Maybe this is what all those weird 70s songs and surrealist paintings were about.
Perhaps it's just a phase.

Dude... chill out... staying away from home and looking out for yourself with no one else to look out for you can at times have a feeling that you have. But its OK. Take your time... there is no hurry... Other characters in the bad sitcom may always seem to be in a hurry; but you need not be so... so chill out and let go!
