TIME: 3:32PM (EST TIME)
If my predictions are correct, then the asteroid will hit in thirty minutes. I don't know what else is there to do up here. I feel like having to watch the world end is like a punishment. Why am I given the worst end out of all mankind? I don't think Miranda will send me anything anymore. She's probably with her family, hugging it out before the end. And I'm all alone. I feel guilty when I send her messages for some reason. I think she blames me for what happened to Luke, and I won't argue with that. I feel that I'm to blame, and all my friends and family thought I was the cause for our loss of Luke. Maybe that's why I came up here. To get away from the shame that I was feeling. But it looks like with this asteroid approaching, that shame is not easy to avoid.
