I think I'm overdue for a confessional! To be quite honest, not much is going on in terms of me and my game right now. I have not spoken to many people except Boo and Ozzy. Everyone else is non-existant to me right now. I'm kind of expecting their to already be an alliance seeing as no one contacts me or cares to, except Ozzy. Ozzy keeps in touch with me alot, so it's really nice to have someone caring about my whearabouts when I'm not on as much. I can see myself working with Ozzy if I'm able to, and not already on the outs which I might be? Parvati has told me that Boo said he'll work with me, so I guess sticking with Boo is my only option right now. The challenge tonight is leaving Yasmin or Heidi leaving the game, and I'm hoping it's Heidi. I don't know her, don't really want to know her, because she's one of the people I saw being in a majority alliance and being a huge threat. Heidi leaving is what I hope to see, and I would rather Yasmin stay.
Tonight's challenge is going to go either way for me. With Heidi leaving, this could leave an opening for me somewhere, somewhere to slip in and stay safe or it could just narrow down the list of people to send out, pushing me to the #1 spot. I really don't know. I am super busy right now with RL, and I love this series too much to not come on and atleast try. It's just been a real disappointment so far, being separated from Parvati and everyone I know and having to start fresh with these people who seem already close. I have alot of work to do if I want to stay in this game and tonight in this next challenge i hope I can do what I need to do to show these other Neutrals that I want to continue to play on their tribe and win challenges with them. I don't have any other options or anything else to do. I think I'm going to start by bonding with Ozzy the first chance I can, and then start building a relationship with Boo. I can see Boo, Chase, and Gabe being in an alliance since they were all in the same season. So if I get in with Boo, I can maybe extend my time and we can vote out Sandra?
Also, as weird as this sounds. Dead Man's Island sounds a little good right about now. Just go and compete, compete, compete as hard as you can without the weighing down of this socializing, especially when you're in a bit of a tough situation like me. If I do get voted out, it could end up being a blessing in disguise. Until then, if it happens anytime soon, I'm going to just go with this flow.

Hey Kelly,
Going on that theory with DMI, how hard is it to then come back into the game not having the bonds you get from the socializing?

It would be hard, Jaime. But seeing the position I'm in more clearly now, I don't think I'd need to goto DMI anymore on purpose. Heidi is gone, so whatever number she could have been in an alliance is now all together done. While I still feel on the outskirts of this tribe, I'm not alone. I don't see how Sandra could be with anyone on my tribe, because she is almost more non-existant than I am, and a even worse competitor. Her performance in the last eChallenge almost sent her to the tie-breaker face off with Heidi and Yasmin. I can say that if we lose, I can see Sandra taking her torch to DMI before me. If not, then she is in an alliance. She and I are on the same playing field right now in terms of social status, but I do think I'm of much more value when it comes to challenges. I think my past performances in the season so far have said that and if no one can see that, then their loss if they ever decide to keep Sandra over me. It'd be a mistake.
Spring Break is two days away for me, so once I'm out classes for a week, you'll see me picking up my game and hopefully it won't be too late by then. I've only been talking to Boo, Ozzy, and Parvati over PM. I know of this big pre-game alliance everyone is talking about and I know that I've been considered a counter number to that alliance, so I hope that for that reason alone I'll be kept around on my tribe. Parvati has filled me in slightly on the fact that Ozzy is one of those people that want Benry and his people out, so for me to continue talking to Ozzy is a smart move, same with Boo. From last season, it's easy to decipher that Chase is with that crew and that he will need to go. But if what people are saying is true about him having the idol, then it needs to get out of his hands and flushed. If I could have a helping hand in that, that would be great in the process to show my loyalty to getting those people out, and I think Sandra would be the perfect goat while getting the idol flushed. I also just finished my eChallenge flash game and puzzle and am posting it now.

The round before when I went to Tribal Council was really tough. I had told Boo that I would stick with him because he owed Parvati a favor or something like that, so he would do anything to keep me safe. But that is a deal he made with Parvati... I'm not a kid that needs to be driven to school, picked up, and monitored throughout the day. I make my own decisions. So when the time came to vote for that Tribal Council, I was confronted with the chance to take out Chase's idol but also take out Boo in the same event. Ozzy had the gameplan and I was a player in it, and I am so glad everything fell into place. As for the vote that I got, I know who it came from and it came from Gabe. I was told that Gabe finds me worthless, which I can understand since I havent been able to contribute much, but to call me that and not ever make an attempt in atleast trying to talk to me is irritating. I won't stop at paying him back...
Now that tribes are all swapped around from Random.org, I am on a tribe with Parvati which is great for me. I wanted to play the game with her again so I'm glad things are going back to the way it should have been at the beginning of the game. I have been filled in about most of everything such as Benry and Ashley being close, Nate being targeted by Benry, Gabe being a dick, Shane being used by Benry, and then Parvati being with me. I wasnt able to help in the challenge this round before because weekend challenges are a definite no for me. I'm never home or near a computer. I'm glad we won so I didnt have to worry about being a target but I do know that if we were to lose that Parv has some prizes that we could use to do what we wanted, but I am also aware that Ashley has her own and Benry may have an idol? First time we lose, Ash and Nate will also be immune from the vote.

I lied in my TC answer! I have problems with alot of people, mainly Gabe and I'm not too happy that Boo is back in the game and will want his revenge even though he said he doesn't want any. I don't know how this vote is really going down but I got an offline from Parvy saying to vote Amanda so I hope that's what is going. I trust her I do, and I dont have any other options right now anyways. These past few couple days in the game have been slow and not much has been going on with all the DMI players competing to return. I know that the could even come to hurt Parv, so I hope she's protecting herself in some way. But the main question on my mind is why aren't we just voting for Benry since everyone is so badly wanting him out? I feel like I am left out of the loop more than I thought I was orginally.

I dont like Russ but it made sense to do it and I had nothing to lose and I didnt care because Ashley and Benry have voted me numerous times.
