Time apart from the one you love really sucks. I live 6 1/2 hours driving distance from my boyfriend, which isn't too bad, but I only get to see him every 3 weeks or so. We email and chat and talk on the phone often so we're still connected.
You'll just have to stay connected to her as well. Send letters. Girls LOVE letters. Well, most I know do. They don't have to be the most perfect love letters ever. A simple card with a simple note in it can really make her day. And she'll have something to look at from you when she's having those moments when she really misses you.
Chat, email and call when you can. Of course the distance between you is great (9 hours, I think?) but you control the impact it will have on your relationship. You can either choose to make it difficult, or you can choose to use this time to make your relationship grow in a different way.
Good luck, and just remember that she's in the same boat as you are.
