+{{BookPage|active=true|I've somehow gotten stuck in this gigantic spaceship. All the past events have been a bit of a blur for me. Maybe this is how I'll end up like Starlord, or Din Dijarin. Anyways, ignoring my geeking out, I've managed to drill a hole in this small crevice and steal some food from the }}
+{{BookPage|kitchen and garden to get by for some time. This space that I've managed to secure for myself is far from ideal, and I somewhat feel like Fortunato at the end of Edgar Allen Poe's "Cask of Amontillado." I'll try to make this space work for the time being, maybe scrounge for some further supplies.}}
+{{BookPage|Hopefully the aliens or whoever owns this ship doesn't feel that I'm taking too much from them/notice that I'm taking at all. I've noticed that there is a lab and some type of storage filled with both familiar and unfamiliar technology. Maybe I could use some stuff to improve the space I'm cramped }}
+{{BookPage|in, or work on some parts for a spaceship to escape. If not, I'm going to have to steal a ship like Poe and Finn did in Episode VII of Star Wars. Alternatively, maybe I could put myself in a cargo crate or sneak on a transport before it leaves. This has certainly been a very unique }}
+{{BookPage|experience on my part. Though, I'm eventually going to need to leave. I have people who need me and are wondering where I am. On a final note, I've noticed that there have been some very interesting stuff in this ship, so I'm going to try to bring some stuff home, both}}
+{{BookPage|for the people I care about, as well as for my own interest. Maybe I could do some research on some of the stuff. If not, I know someone who is a scientist, so I could ask her to do some research if she's interested in her free time. Anyways, this is all for now. I'll try to provide an update

+{{BookPage|at a later date. Hope this note is able to reach someone.

+P.S: I wish I could find bedsheets in a more vibrant color than a plain white, but I'm worried that if I manage to find and take some, the aliens would notice. Plus, it's an alien spaceship, so I don't know what I }}
+{{BookPage|was expecting.
+P.S.S: Maybe I'll be able to find a carbon freezing chamber on this spaceship. Wouldn't that be fun?}}

+Here I am stuck on a ship.

+If I stay here, for more than a year, I fear this will be my last trip.}}

+To be traversing the Cosmic pool.
+But after being here, for almost a year,
+I wish I had stayed in school.}}

+I ain't gonna lie to a recorder only I'm gonna listen to so I found a pretty sweet hide today, surprised no one claimed it but hey, I ain't gonna push my luck.
+Decided to try my}}
+{{BookPage|hand in gardening and snatched some seeds from the top level, don't have the slightest of clues what they're gonna be but I hope they ain't ugly.
+I know I'm not smart but I almost had a cow when I forgot about light levels some plants need, but}}
+{{BookPage|thankfully found some lanterns in the archives, of course I won't say where they wandered off to...
+Couple of funky mushrooms started to sprout, I put them in a pot and I'm gonna show Moondust next time I see her, when I see her next at least, She's been awfully}}
+{{BookPage|busy lately.
+It's been a few weeks since I was last able to check on the room, the mushrooms had grown pretty wildly so I had to chop most of 'em down. Don't think they liked that, but I ain't gonna let some mushrooms own my room just cause I wasn't here for awhile.}}
+{{BookPage|When Moondust got back from her mission, I showed her the mushrooms and she said somethin' real funny. She said somethin' about how I am similiar to that mushroom, feedin' on dead things and livin' in the dark, I couldn't help but howl in laughter at her. Don't know how she gets to}}
+{{BookPage|her theories sometimes, must be all that spacedust she is breathin' in.
+Don't know when the next time I log anythin' but the flowers have grown. Blue and yellow, not too bad but they're probably gonna sit here cause it's been too much of a risk comin' here...}}

+{{BookPage|finds a way to get spoons into his cell. Spoons, of all things. What is he gonna do try and scoop his way out of his cell? Does he not know the technology our cells use? Anyway, day after day this man winds up with a spoon in his cell and I have no idea where they come from.}}
+{{BookPage|I hear he was some kind of journalist before... well you know. I guess he's still looking for his big scoop. I'm too funny.
+Inmate Karl is nice enough, although from time to time he causes a stir. Wow, I'm on a roll. Anyway, I have no idea how he ended up in the Brig, but I}}
+{{BookPage|suspect it had something to do with our findings. Perhaps he was a spy, monitoring our progress. Our technology has seemed to find its way outside of our station, and I wonder what events it will cause in other places.
+Oh dear, I must go,}}
