R13: Insert Facepalm Here

[Deleted]

This just sucks ass. Brett is still in this game, which may or may NOT be good for me, just cause I flipped on an F3 alliance Lex had set up for me. My only option now is to fill Brett's head with reasons why he shouldn't put too much trust into Lex. I know I've burned bridges in this game, but I'm not as bold and proud of that as Lex is, he wears it like a medal of honor like the bastard that he is. It's a stretch throwing someone I'm this close to under the bus, but hey, I'm playing to win and if the guy has no problem doing that same thing to Brett, then I have no problem giving him a dose of his own medicine.

Then again, why am I even shocked Brett won this tiebreaker? It's not my fault that this guy is so desperate, he sat on his ass and found out shortcuts on the keyboard to make him post faster. I would call it cheating if there weren't people in the ORG world that already know how to manipulate the Proboards posting in order to post more than 1 post at once.

Anyways, it's 11 in the morning, and I didn't sleep till 8 AM, so dun dun dun I've had 3 hours of sleep but yet I'm up doing a confessional. Time for me to go to bed, might write 1 more confessional before I do that.

The immunity challenge tonight I guess you can say is crucial for me in a way, cause part of me feels Lex and Brett are going to be out for my blood in this now. I did this same thing in SBB and both of them went all out in challenges just to get rid of me (Along with our hat-loving host .) I can only hope that the Rob seeds I'm planting in Brett's head work, and I hope I can sway Lex too. This round, I'm thinking I have to vote with them in order to make them regain trust in me, so they won't be hellbent to take me out. Anyways, it seems like it's going to be trivia of some sort so I'm thinking that it's Survivor trivia (Which I would probably be good at depending on what I'm asked.), or maybe trivia about AS, so either way it's going to be a tough challenge for me. I have a very good memory of stuff in ORGs, probably a lot better than my memory of Survivor is lol.

I guess we will have to see, all I know is that treemail makes me hungry ... All that talk about cookies in it. I would hope that it's Oreos or Chocolate Chip as I already said. Oh, or some kind of Peanut Butter cookies. Geez, this is when you know you need sleep when you're rambling about cookies in your confessionals. Anyways, I'm out for real cause I'm tired, Rob can't run all day on 3 hours of sleep.

This challenge tonight, there's a hell of a lot at stake here. Knowing that a juror can vote at TC throws a huge curveball in everything because you have no idea what that juror is going to think, either they are going to vote Lex or Brett, possibly even me. I'm already worried enough Brett and Lex are going to retaliate against me for flipping, so all they would need is the right juror to step up and do this challenge that's willing to vote me, and that is my grave. I am a survivor buff (somewhat), so I do know some things about Survivor, but Survivor is like a person: You can NEVER know everything about it. My worry is that I will end up with a low amount of points/money in the IC and I won't win because not only do I have to worry about Lex and Brett winning, I have to worry about a juror stealing away the immunity. This round WITHOUT me being immune is going to be stressing, so I have to try hard. The only thing at this point I've dominated in challenge wise are Deep Points.

All I can do right now is my best, and try every way I can to make the Final 5, immunity or not, I've been climbing hard to reach this stage again in AS. It's been emotionally, physically, and mentally draining, but I made it here over 16 other people, and I can't just give up at this point because every part of my being is drained.

I didn't do so well on this immunity challenge. The questions were a lot harder than I thought they were going to be, because I thought it was going to be basic stuff like "Who has the most days?" etc, but these things were a lot different than I thought they were going to be. Austin will probably end up winning immunity, which personally I'd be fine with as long as Lex or Brett doesn't have it. I don't see Lex playing an idol on Brett whenever he's vulnerable himself, so he would probably go around pushing for Brett to leave over him. If we flushed out his idol next round, that would work wonders because an idol-less Lex is an easier Lex to kill in this game. Brett already thinks that Lex will probably try to take him out this round, which I think it's possible, although Lex wanted to take out Brett at F5.

It's hard to say what is going to happen going into Tribal Council. All I know is I don't think we've seen the last of shop prizes rearing their ugly head just yet. There's still one or two more rounds that these bad boys can come into play, so it definitely is stressing knowing every plan you come up with can be screwed by rewards and prizes, so you definitely gotta be on your A game if you want things to go your way.

I'm pretty nervous about this round cause I feel like if Brett or Lex manage to snag immunity, that they are guaranteed F5 due to Lex possibly having an HII, meaning if that situation happens, I might just have to vote with Lex and Brett just to avoid being idoled out. However, if anyone other than Lex or Brett win, then I have a possible game plan I want to unveil.

My thinking is if Lex has an idol, he's going to conserve it if it ends at F5 just so he can make F4, but I think if Lex realized people were gunning for him, there's a slight chance that he might play the idol, and if we all voted Brett, his idol would be completely wasted. Lex is no idiot though, so he might easily read right through it and tell we are flushing it. The guy's had an easy enough ride to the F6 because of being a challenge whore, I would hate to see him make F4 because of an idol.

Also, more than likely anyone that is voting from the jury probably wouldn't vote for me. I don't see the Anti-Feng members voting me, Kim is a wildcard because I see her voting with me and against me at the same time, if that makes sense at all lol, and Russell of course would vote Brett since I pretty much saved his ass by letting it go to a tiebreaker. It's hard to say if I'm in the clear just yet cause of the rewards and the juror twist.

Lex has 23 points, WTF?! I thought people were actually going to do bad on this challenge because of the difficulty of the questions. Lex winning is like the last thing I want right now.. This tribal is going to be a tough one for me simply because I don't want everyone throwing their votes onto Brett and he pulls another idol out of his cocky little asshole, and me, Colleen, Alina, or Austin gets the boot. Lex tells me "Colleen is going, she's a jury threat", but yet do you NOT think I remember SBB? When I flipped in that, you helped lead a charge to send me packing out of the game. I've found it hard to work with Lex a lot in this just cause of his reputation, but I've kept my guard up to know if I'm being played or not.

I heard some stuff last night from a good friend of mine that I was NEVER in Lex/Brett's alliance, and they had an F2 alliance from the start of this game. Go figure, then last night just was the icing on the cake. Me and Lex talked about the jury possibly gunning for Brett since a majority of them wanted him out of the game, he went "Wouldn't it be smart to get RID of the person the jury wants out? (: " Complete with that backwards ass smiley of his. I was thinking, "Can't you make it any less obvious that you don't want your F2 buddy to leave the game?" If there was a Razzie award for Worst Cover-Up Of An F2 Alliance, Lex would win it by a landslide.

Lex won immunity for the 3rd time in a row. I'm not too surprised about that because Lex is a bit of a challenge whore from what I've seen in the past (SBB lol.) Anyways, this round the Feng members want to vote for Alina, and I don't want to vote for her. Simply because I trust Alina probably more than anyone else in this game right now. Sure she's not that active, but I really like her a lot and she's always been honest with me and done everything I've wanted her to do.

At this point, I'm going to throw my vote on Brett along with Alina, so without prizes it should 3 votes Brett (Assuming the jurors all decide to vote him), 2 votes Alina, and 2 votes me/Colleen. I'm not sure which one they are voting for, but I got a feeling it's me just cause Brett's been a tad bit quiet. For me, I would HATE to vote Alina out of this game just cause at this point, I feel I'd be stabbing her in the back, and look at it this way: Alina being in the game works to my advantage just cause she'd never vote me out, and if I lose her, I'm stuck with 3 other people going into F5 that wouldn't mind voting me out of the game (Austin, Brett, Lex.) I really want Brett out of this game, but I can't play it safe like Feng is doing and vote Alina with them.

hahaha i love how everyone kept talking about how obvious it was that Brett and I had a F2, but you all bought it SO MUCH whenever I talked about my future plans to kill Brett, then told Brett about it, who then told me that you told him. Very silly!
