Well there was a tribal switch up. Kind of interesting, I expected it but not this soon actually. I still have Rodney and Shirin, who I trust will vote with us, but there are 5 others so I'm a bit nervous about that. I feel Rob will side with us simply because he isn't too active and didn't bond with his other tribe, so I think I could get him on our side.
ETA: I single handedly won the challenge for the tribe...well not really, bu oh well lol.

Alright so last round I FINALLY won immunity...well tribal immunity, but still, it was nice to not have to worry about voting anyone off. I am a bit nervous about us potentially going to tribal council because I'm afraid of being a target, or even worse, idoled out. That would suck beyond belief. Of my new tribemates I've talked to Colby and Rob the most. Colby is...not the most articulate man on earth, but he seems nice. I kind of love it when he cursed out Erik at the one challenge, so out of the blue and random. He wants to vote Rob off if we lose. You might be wondering why. Is it because Rob's not active? Is it because Rob puts 1% of his energy into challenges? No, it's because Rob told Colby he was messing up the challenge. All this together=Lol.
I'm confident that Shirin and Rodney will stay loyal, I haven't spoken to Shirin much, but her flipping wouldn't make sense because that would show Erik and Ciera, who I want to work with at the merge, that she's not trustworthy. That would mean all we would really need is Rob to force a tie vote. I'm not going to worry much about that though until we have to face it.

On the surface right now it appears that me, Rodney, and Shirin are in a good position. Rob will vote with us, but Colby and Courtney also show interest in working with us, according to Rodney. I haven't spoken to Courtney much, but I am conflicted on working with them. I'm looking at the long term while Rodney's looking short term. Colby and Courtney would guarantee numbers, but if we vote off Rob, they could easily switch to the beauties if we lose again and we'd then be in the minority. I'm pretty confident that Rob is with us, simply because of how inactive he is he will pretty much go with "the hand that feeds you" approach.
In reality I would like to vote off Andrea or Parvati ONLY because I know that they have a close alliance, and I know they have an allegiance to their old tribe. Parvati has made it clear that her old tribe was "inactive" and that she really didn't have an alliance but I call bullshit on that. Anyone who goes out of their way to slip that into a conversation a few times is trying to make the other person feel like they're helpless, when in reality, they are going to ditch us come merge.

Alright so after we got the next clue to the mystery location, I knew that the Big Brother contestant had to be Britney Haynes. After going through wikipedia, I was just started guessing somewhat relevant girls, and within my first 5 guesses, I got it right with Natalie Bolton. Now I am waiting to hear back from Julie to see if I have actually received the power and I'm a bit nervous since 15 people have viewed that thread, it's making me think someone else has it. It doesn't necessarily say it's an idol, but it does say it's a power and I'm praying I actually get it right now.

Alright so I don't need to wait til Julie replies to me, Rodney cracked the code as well and he was told it was already taken, so it looks like someone that isn't on my side has it.

Well this round has been quit. Mostly because I've been busy as hell, but I still managed to contribute more during the challenge then most of the team. I didn't know we were supposed to watch an episode so when the challenge was posted I acted like I do in school when I was supposed to read something and the class is then supposed to discuss it. Sit back, listen, then start rehashing what other people have said with my own little flair added onto it. It worked and I did contribute a little bit, but it's hardly my fault we lost. The team as a whole pretty much sucked, no one was on, no one had any idea what was going on.
Meanwhile the other tribe probably met in real life and sat around watching the episode on a loop, pinpointing minute details such as the stitching in Russell's hat because they finished that shit in like 5 minutes.

We hit the merge baby! Last round things went as smooth as possible at tribal council. Parvati threw away her idol, brains stuck together AND the minority didn't vote for me. However going into the merge I'm nervous. Brains has 5 people and I'm afraid we will be targeted. Rodney assures me that brawn and brainier going to stick together which is imperative to my survival. Of the brains I am probably perceived as the 3rd most threatening which of scary because with idols they will try to target someone that they wouldn't necessarily view as a huge threat but still somewhat threatening.

Alright so the auction is done and I got absolutely nothing. Julie slapped me in the face with the tie bidding rule, so stacking all my money on box 4 kind of blew up in my face. Colby apparently bid all $100 on box 4 as well, so we are both left with nothing. I'm very thankful though, it could have ended up much worse, Shirin ended up getting a penalty vote, poor gal. This round is tricky because of all the shit floating around, I just want to remain low key and really try to avoid being targeted for any reason because of all the powers floating around. The brain and brawn tribe are allegedly sticking together this round, but we will see how that works. We are still toying with the idea of voting off either Parvati or Mike.

The brawn's are a bunch of shady bitches. On top of having an alliance with the brains, they have a deal with the beauties as well. Angie is feeding me this information and I'm so thankful she is. I told Rodney about it, but am refraining from telling him that Ciera is the target, because I don't want him to get too paranoid or worried. Me and Angie have discussed a deal that would basically be an "I scratch your back, you scratch mine". This is cool with me because if things go down hill for the brains, Angie having my back will hopefully buy me some time to get back on my feet. I fully intend to help her out as much as I can because she seems like she doesn't like her old tribe that much.
I wish she wasn't so much of a loose cannon though, she is pretty aggressive and volatile when it comes to talking about her old tribe.

Well, Parvati bit the dust. Looks like the brawn tribe was being truthful after all! I'm actually pretty shocked, I really thought that Ciera was going to go. I'm obviously happy she survived, and I am really hoping that our tribe can continue to stick together and make it through this together. Logically, it didn't make sense for the brawn tribe to vote with us which makes me a little worried. I fear that certain people in my alliance have outside deals that conflict with our alliance, but I'm holding out hope that my loyalty will surpass all of that. Right now I am trying my best to just make some friends with the outsiders, in case I feel like I need an alternative backup plan. On top of my deal with Angie, I've been talking to Mike a little bit. It never hurts to make friends outside your circle.
I'm reaching outside my own cookie jar and hoping that it'll come in handy if I need to change routes, or with connections on the jury.
