J, I think you have way too much time on your hands right now to think of way too many negative possibilities. Try to spend this time on how you want to spend your future and make positive changes once you are done.
Dont let this situation get the best of you, stay strong and stay realistic about everything. It will all work out and be just fine. You will see.
You have a lot of time to think and reflect, dont forget to reflect on the good things. People miss you and admire you for what you are doing. Dont forget this.
I wish you the best and please come home safely.

Also, just in the last few, I have scanned the site, only to find out through here about a bear. You'd think that this would make for atleast a mention during conversation, rather than the fact that "I visited my grandparents church today". Although it is said that the other one misses the other, I am now finding that maybe I am wrong for even trying so hard to even contact home (i.e. waiting hours to make a 10-15 phone call) I guess it is def true....absence makes the heart grow fonder for some, while out of site out of mind for the most. I guess I need to adopt the latter of the 2. Being that she does seem to check this site more than her email, I hope she reads this and realizes that I am about through going that extra step just to contact her. At this point contacting other family members is more important. I will def make some changes in my family, once I return home.  |
