I think I just realized, with so many people disappearing (back home? in limbo? in some other world like this? dea) that... one of the worst things I can imagine right now would be being trapped in this room all by yourself.

So, I guess I just wanted to say that I, for one, am really glad you're here with me, and that we're all together. Because whatever happens, it's way better than going through it alone, isn't it?

In less than a month, I'll have been in this same room for a year. (Ha, it's nothing compared to Matt and Axel.)

I keep wondering why all the people I've seen and met and talked to over time have mostly disappeared, and why just a few of us got to stay. Matt said it's because we're amusing or something, which might be true knowing the Voice and everything, but...

I've been reading back on this journal, since I keep forgetting to use it so I have no idea what I last talked about, and I can't believe the last time I was all "wow I've been here for THIS LONG" was back in February. I guess I was right when I said a full year would go by before I knew it.

So if anyone's paying attention to this thing, how much do you think you've changed? Since I'm pretty sure everyone here has in some way, for sure. Are you happy with who you are now? D'you regret anything enough to go back and change it, if you could? And anything else you can think of. I'm just kinda curious. And waiting for this turkey to finish roasting.

... yeah, I know it's almost 6 in the morning. Shh.
