Dear Darla,

I am finally being productive with my time.  Probably not as productive as I need to be, or want to be, but more than what I expected.

I have nothing particularly exciting to share. I guess that one of my fellow soldiers going home for a few days is pretty exciting. Only a few times before have I seen them so happy. That smile and relaxed shoulders are worth getting excited over.

Yesterday I was playing Clue with one of my closest friends in my squad. The figure I played ended up being the murderer. I joked some about how stupid it would be to kill someone and forget, but in retrospect, I see that it would make an interesting plot in a crime novel. Maybe I will write such a novel when I am older.

Thank you for being here for me to talk to when I felt like no one else would listen. I needed an outlet for all of the emotions and feelings that I keep pinned up inside of me like a raging bull.

Recently, my voice was heard as I stated before. It is going to be heard again very soon.  I hope the world is ready.

Ada has gifted me with peace and remembrance. I seem to be passing most tests thrown at me. There is one test, though, that I am slightly struggling with, but I am sure I will be fine by the deadline. Everything seems to be going well. I guess I am excited for what the future holds.

Thank you again for helping me and just listening.
