I really can't believe how insane this game has been for me. I was just looking at the memory board and it really made me appreciate how far I've got into this game. Never did I think when Sam left that I would be still in the game at final 8! I know I'm not in an appealing position, I know I don't have all the power, and I know I'm not running the show right now, but I am playing my hand the way it was intended to be played and that's by scrapping and surviving. 
I feel as though that's the strategy I've adopted, and it's very fitting. I don't have the connections to these people that they have been building since day 1. I mean shit, literally look at the memory board. From Trevor (16th) to Ryan (9th) I've had every single person that I've been on a tribe with before the merge completely wiped out of the game. That sucks, that doesn't make things easy at all. I have an uphill battle if I want to make it to the end of this game, but I'm going to give it EVERYTHING I have. However, I feel like these people are going to start/continue to underestimate me.
My new strategy has been simple. SURVIVE. If it's not me, I don't care who it is. Obviously there's people I prefer to leave (Mike and Chris) but I also know they're well protected by an alliance with Jenn, Shon, and Jeff. Clearly that's 5 and I'd seemingly be in the 3 (Me adam sarena). However, I knew about everything that was going to happen last night at tribal, because of my alliance with Jeff and Shon. I'm really hoping that deal holds up with them and they don't screw me over. But it's SO hard to trust those 2, especially when I know they're probably the most cutthroat players in the game.
So to recap:
last night was crazy. There was powers handed out at the auction but GUESS WHAT. I didn't go for any of them, it all goes back to my "idc about this game" mentality that I want them to all think about me. If I got a power, they would literally all want me out so quickly. So instead, I got myself a PIZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. And there's NOTHING I love more than pizza. Your boy has to EAT BABY.
But in all seriousness, Chris won a game advantage and it's believed that Jeff got an idol clue for winning the challenge. I don't think I'll be able to find this idol if it's not gone already. I looked for an hour last night and got nowhere, I think the "clue" they're giving me is fake so that I don't find the real thing. Which blows, but it's fine. Right now all I'm focused on is surviving Saturday. Final 8 right now, but in a matter of 2 hours it will be final 6 on saturday. That's nuts!!! I need to be ready for that, because if I can survive to top 6 then it will turn into a game where everyone's going to want to take out the people playing the best games and I don't think I'd fall into that range of targets right now (fingers crossed). Hopefully they would realize how good of games shon and jeff have been playing and target them before me. Speaking of, I really would like Shon out of this game as well, he's too powerful. But I don't know how to do that, at least for now. Stay tuned
So my strategy to survive on saturday is pretty wild:
1) Stick close with Sarena and Adam.
Sure, they will probably be targeted hard/ possibly leave but at the same time just knowing those 2 won't be voting for me will put me at a lot of peace so I gotta keep close to them so I can get the inside scoop. I want Adam to believe I'm his bitch, that's the goal.
2) Make myself Shon and Jeff's bitch
Very similar to strategy 1) ^^^^. except this is much more important. If jeff and shon lose trust in me, I'm going home. Period. I need them to know that I'm completely with them to the end (probably bullshit since I want to win and they're playing very well). They need to think I depend on them because as of now, I do.
3) Cut a deal with Chris.
If I'm with those 4, it leaves 3 others. Jenn Chris and Mike. Mike is a bitch ass, I can't stand the dude at all so I'm not making a deal with him. Jenn is too fucking nuts to make a deal with. So that leaves Chris. I need an in with one of those 3 if I plan on having all my bases covered. So this is the most complicated part of my plan for saturday, and I'm really hoping it doesn't backfire. But as of now, I'm planning on calling Chris today and putting everything out there and hoping we could make a deal to at the very least get each other through saturday, but hopefully even more. I want a secret alliance with him. I think I could beat him at the end and I feel like his ego is big enough to want to do this thing. We will see, I'm not going to hold my breath on this, but this could really make or break my game. If Chris plays me and tells Shon/Jeff about my deal I offer him, then my game will be over. But if it works then it might set me up to make the end of this game.
So that's all guys! Hope you like text confessionals, I was in a typing mood and I'm just really excited to see how this game finishes. I want to win so badly, I feel like I've overcome the most adversity and to still be here and alive in the game is really a blessing. Plus I won a Pizza so whose complaining, not me!!!
I'll end with this, because I love me a good Randy Orton RKO
