i also think im in a showmance with Eddie now. he seems really nice and easy to talk to. I wonder why Yul and PG had a problem with him and marcus. IM having a problem with Alex. This is so weird. I also just heard that Alex/Eddie were supposed to make a deal with them but backed out when they told marcus and it went back to alex/eddie. UGH i love PG but that was a dumb move.

maybe I spoke too soon? of course I don't blame them if they don't want to throw this challenge for me.

Episode 8: La Barb No More
So for the first time in my Warriors History I finally switched tribes. Am I happy about it? NO.
Definitely not happy...This is the worst switch that ever happened to me in a game. I mean look who I'm with and look what my position is...I am literally the only original La Barb who has not yet flipped amongst all these Greco people...so yeah I'm officially doomed! DOOMED. D-O-O-M-E-D. But there's hope. there is hope. My old La Barb Alliance are all on the other side and they can spare a vote or two to just to save me over here. They are the real stars of this episode. I can't really thank them enough that they would do this for me. To save me from being voted out. I knew I would have been doomed regardless of how much I try to believe my social skills will save me. But hey I mean it takes enough social skills for an entire tribe to want to throw a challenge just to save one person. I do hope no one sees me as the leader of this merry band of La Barb folk. I just talked to them like a normal person should and shared my life story and my day to day whatevers. And I enjoy every minute of talking to them. I have even grown to love Robb and Coach who I barely talked to at first but they have really been more open recently. Especially since we got stuck in a tribe together for 2 rounds. I could not really express how much happy and lucky I am to have such allies that are still watching out for me even when I am not with them. How many people can ever say that right? I feel bad for Charlie really because I could have asked Nu La Barb to throw it to save him but it was too late for that to happen. I also just wanted to be safe regardless of whether Dolly was really willing to get rid of Abi.
It goes without saying though that I'm not just gonna sit on my ass all day while my alliance does the work for me. I still participated in the challenge and sought out people from within the tribe and talked to them one by one. Trying to feel out what the heck is going on and if I could even find a crack. I've talked personally with everyone of them and I think I could explain further by describing how I feel about each one of them.
Austin - I don't know, when he flipped to save himself and get rid of both Kass/Charlie. I have been totally wary of him. But that doesn't mean I should stop talking to him. In fact, the more I need to make sure he still thinks I'm on his side. I guess the roles are reversed now. I mean I let him think that Cerberus is still alive. It's not that I want to control his vote. I just want to make sure I know where he's voting. Regardless if hes lying or not, if he still talks to me, that's good enough for me.
Alina - I was actually excited to be in the same tribe with Alina but I feel like she's not giving me the time of day. Maybe it's just her personality or she really was busy but I would think that she would look out for me in this tribe because I'd really love to start working with her too. But if that's not the case, then I will just be friendly towards her but not really give her the info she needs. I don't really like it when someone is all business and can't even get into the small talk. I personally love to connect with people and I think that's the best way to win them over.
JFP - Our talk was kind of weird. It felt like he was giving me the run around. Or he's giving me the bedside treatment like I'm gonna die soon enough. I know I'm doomed but at least be decent. Like it irritates me when all you really do is be smug about how you gained majority. Remember if there's a majority, a minority is just right behind you trying to find ways to overthrow you.
Alex - I can't quite really put how I would describe my conversation with Alex. He was for the most part friendly but I find it too fake. Like I don't know, it's too legal, it's too formal. I see no enjoyment in the way he talks. It's boring. It's not engaging enough for me. It's like he has prepared everything he has to say to me. you know. I don't know it's weird.
Marcus - I actually love Marcus, I enjoyed our talk. We flirted a bit lol and decided to name our showmance MARJ. It's funny. He's funny a little funny but not quite as energetic and charismatic as Yul is. But we did play a LoL game. I mean not a lot of people would go to such lengths to spend time with someone in an ORG. He actually was decent enough and kind enough to actually give me the time of day. Regardless if he's just making sure votes aren't going his way. Then he's got me. He's engaging enough that I want to work with him.
Eddie - I don't even know why he's called the supervillain. He's actually fun to talk to. He's probably the person I have talked to the most in a span of 24 hours. Heck we spent all night just talking about anything and I kept him company until he was done with his tug of war. I really do like him but he's too paranoid. I hope that it's enough for him to consider me as his ally.
With that said, I am not entirely sure how safe I really am on this tribe but I at least have a grasp as to who is interested to talk to me and who isn't. To my old La Barb alliance I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. Thank you for doing this to me. I will never forget this and I hope I stay long enough in this game to return the favor to all of you. I can't wait to meet up with you guys in the possible merge. So please wait for me. I will hold on as much as I can. |

So Yul and I just had this conversation but I would like to ask Host Jeremiah or Host Aras if you guys could deny or confirm that there is more than 2 idols being given out this season or no. Because we were speculating whether each player can actually ask for their own key and get their hands on an idol... |

We can neither confirm or deny.
Good luck.

ugh would it be really dumb if I don't use my idol right now? I don't know I feel like I believe what Alina and JFP are saying but thre's that nagging feeling that they will still likely to vote me off. But as long as I stay quiet I'm sure things will be fine. I don't want to have to reveal the idol really. not this soon.

Episode 9: Eeny Meeny Miny Mo
So I know I said last time I was doomed. But just when things turned out for the worst. I find the HII! OMG you guys don't know how relieved I am that I found it. It just came at the right time too. I wouldn't have believed it myself but I am now the proud owner of an HII. What worries me though is the fact that there might be more than just two HIIs as what Yul and I have discussed plus the denial or the confirmation of the hosts that they may or may not exist.
Anyway, just when I thought I could save this thing for a rainy day. We have this very tempting challenge where someone had the opportunity to grant themself immunity at the cost of sending the tribe to tribal council. I tried to go for it of course but I was 2 seconds too late. Marcus took it upon himself to take it thus sending our tribe to tc. Now I guess I will be forced to use this nifty little thing. I did try and ask around if there is a better solution than hide myself behind this but I don't know. I would rather be sure than to go home with a souvenir. I talked to Austin about it about whether I can get myself spared this TC. He said that I should talk to Alina and JFP and see what they think. I did just that and both were kind of suggesting we vote Ed or that I help them vote Ed. In a different universe, I would have said no because I kinda happen to like Ed but seeing as this is my only option since no one else is really giving me anything I might have to vote against Ed. JFP like the kingpin that he was asked if I was willing to do that and then vote Marcus off on the next tribal council. So I was like why not, it's better than any other offer I could have gotten. Alina was also telling me that she's doing this to save me and that hopefully I don't betray her. Well really, what else was I supposed to say? Of course I couldn't just say "Oh no don't do this on my behalf, I don't want to be in debt" but I really have no choice in the matter. I will have to say anything and everything to stay in this game. It means that much to me despite me saying to others that I'm not here to win it. Eddie thinks I have totally given up and is already saying his goodbye wishes to me. Like really, you can't even help me out? You'd rather vote me out? Well okay, then I have no ill feelings into voting you out too.
Now it all comes down to whether I should use my HII or not. I really don't want to waste it but if Alina/JFP are true to their word. Then I might be able to save this for another day. If that's not the case, then I guess that means I will just have to trust my gut on this and throw all cautions to the wind. They might all think that the power to save me is in their hands but they are sadly mistaken. I might just have the power to get whoever I want out this round. I have to survive this round. I have to make it to merge. Otherwise, my fellow allies saved me for nothing. Tune in folks, this is one heck of an exciting round! |

Also I happened to notice some PWs and the hosts liked some of my confessional entries! I appreciate all the likes! Thanks for following me and my journey so far. It's been really fun  I know Ed does not have so many likes on his thread as he confessed it to me lol poor him.  I never revealed that I have likes on mine as I don't really wanna be smug about it or anything. |
