Personal Log: Lt Dea Mialin

At the moment I'm not sure what to say. There's a lot on my mind but I'm still processing a good portion of it as well. I guess shock would be the best way to describe it.

We're on our own ship but we're not free. At this point I can safely say we've been through hell and its not over yet. Currently I've had no time to come to terms with the fact that Captain Saalm and Commander Holiday are in serious trouble, assuming they aren't dead.

Galileo is in bad shape. While we're doing our best to repair battle damage I"m not sure there will ever be a time this ship truly feels like home again. That won't happen while Borg drones are watching us. Part of me feels that is would be better if I"d been assimilated as well. Currently I have to fear that will happen at some point anyway.

I survived the battle and taking on Borg ships in a runabout. However I didn't walk away from that one unscathed. Due to the power conservation mode some of my injuries will have to heal on their own from this point forward. Do I feel lucky that I escaped a worse fate? Honestly I'm not so sure I do.

Yes I feel like I failed Saalm and Holiday. That's all I can really put into words regarding our current situation right now. Emotions are still too raw and we're still in the heat of the incident. I don't have the luxury of letting others see how this is affecting me. My main concern right now is the Flight Control department.

When of if we'll see an end to this I can't say because I don't know. All I do know for sure is we aren't truly free even if we are still aboard our own ship.
