NOOOOOO!!!!!! While I was asleep the Bude had met up with the Odyssey a couple of days earlier than expected, the transfer was made in less than an hour and I missed it.

Gutted, I am gutted.

New mission, We are taking supplies to Archer IV, be there in two weeks.

No post yesterday, why? Because I spent the day in Sickbay. Turns out the Brig isn't shakeproof when the Bude makes sharp turns...can you do a sharp turns in space? And ended up twatting myself on the console. Day off for me, gonna spend it in my cabin and sleep.

My duty today is the Brig again...and will be the same tomorrow as well. This is what I get for finishing 14th in a class of 25.

Still, I may be able to get some reading in, Ensign Malcor gave me some books to read, about the farming techniques of the Husnock circa 2150.

I spent 8 hours staring at an Empty Brig, I was so frigging bored. Four years at the Academy just to sit in an empty room. I got to meet the first officer though, Lieutenant Commander S'kon when he did a surprise inspection. Nice chap. Only four days until I see the USS Odyssey. So excited.

Brig duty, I've been given Brig duty... despite not having anyone to watch. Still, it's vital to ships functions and I don't trust the night Helmsman, shifty lips, so who knows. Could be some excitement. Either way I'll do it to the best of my ability....fucking bored though.

Turns out the cleaning the Nacelle Struts was just a hazing for the newbies. Could have told me that BEFORE I cleaned both nacelles. Still, five days until I see my first Galaxy class ship.

I like this ship though, the Bude is exciting. I wonder what my first proper shift will involve.

ARE YOU SHITTING ME???

THIS IS A NACELLE STRUT??!!

FUCK THAT! MY CO IS A CU.....PLONKER!!!

How am I going to fit in this thing?

And finally Lucas Wang.

He snores like a Fluxarian Wildebeest.

Isn't it weird how we add the name of an alien species before naming them after an animal from Earth. I must look into that after I clean the Nacelle Struts.

Ensign Malcor just keeps talking about his food options and how things were better at the academy complex on Xanthan. I'm going to introduce him to the delights of a British 21st century takeaway on the Holodeck... assuming we have one.

My new Bunk mates are.... interesting. Ensign Loxi, a Denobulan. Ensign Malcor, a Xindi Primate and Ensign Wang, A Human.

Loxi is so optimistic it's annoying. I stubbed my toe and his reply was "At least you have nine more" and gave me a weird smile.

Just arrived at my new Assignment. The USS Bude at Starbase 47.

My CO seems nice, Lieutenant Junior Grade Flynn. He's assigned me to clean the Nacelle struts. Fun times.

Our first assignment is to deliver cargo to the USS Odyssey, six days away. I get to see a Galaxy class ship. Nice.
