Hey everyone! I wanna thank you all for the game. It's been fun and a great experience. Big thanks to the hosts & ofcourse the lovely people sitting next to me (Benry & Parvati).

I came into the game expecting it to be crazy, meet new people and whatnot. My expectations were met as some rounds were definitely all over the place and nerve wrecking. I'm a social player although I do feel as if I didn't give it my best in this game as there are a few jurors who I never talked to. I hope I'm not written off at getting your vote cause communication does work both ways. I feel like most of us were comfortable with our position so didn't bother to branch out. I wasn't weak in competitions... I did win one immunity but I didn't really need to win them. There was one time but we had an idol and planned the whole round out so yeah.

I was 100% safe when we were in tribes. I only went to tribal once (we dominated) but I did have numerous alliances that would keep me safe. At merge I did feel abit unsafe because of the things that happened on the other tribes (Chase getting voted off). I thought that I might get picked off because almost everyone seemed to be aligned to Parvati so I did try and make things happen my way but things didn't go perfectly. I still managed to make it to the end so I guess that's all what matters.

To sum up my game; I relied on my socialness... as in to those who I was aligned with. I would always check in with them even though there were some days without no communication. I'm a loyal person and I definitely think I was loyal in this game. I don't like making false deals if I can't keep them. I wasn't the strongest in competitions (well when you're up against the comp whores!!! it's hard to be ) but most of the time I did try my best. I was involved in a few decisions... I never followed anyone cuz I have my own mind. So if you got any questions, ask away. Looking forward to them (is lying ) xD

Good luck Benry and Parvati.
