That Immunity Challenge didn't work out too well for me. It's all my fault. I didn't read when the challenge was due and figured I had Saturday Night and Sunday Morning to work on it. And when I looked Saturday Night, I realized the challenge had ended at 1:00 PM ET. My heart sank because it makes me look really bad. It won't happen again.
As for the game, things are going really well. Gracie is staying true to me and we have a Final 2 alliance. At this stage in the game, I am very fortunate to have chosen her to go with me in the beginning. I had a hunch at the start of the game that she would be around for the long haul. Not only is she still in the game, but she has everyone on her side. And if she stays true to me, I am sitting pretty well right now.
The down side to this is, I have to go to Minnesota in a week for health reasons and will miss an entire week. That puts me in great danger of being booted. However, there are important things in life and this is by far the most important at the moment. I haven't felt like a normal person in 3 years and for the first time, I have hope that better days await me. The doctors will give me a second second at life. In one sense, I am scared out of my mind. But in another, I am so happy and thrilled to be going to Minnesota. I am scared because no one knows what is wrong with me- parasite, cancer, and other such illnesses have been brought up. But I feel as though, whatever I have, they will be able to cure it. So, at this point, the game is no longer important to me. I love this game. I love these people. I love the hosts. There is nothing I would change. But, sometimes, things happen in life, and you have no control over them. If I happen to be voted off when I am out of the state, then so be it. I have made friends that I respect and appreciate in this game.
Now, back to the game, I feel very close to Jenne and Ellie right now. They have my back. Lucas took a hard hit with Jaime and I am a little upset with him. He is acting really strange and I don't think he trusts me anymore. HOWEVER, never once did he and I have an alliance. Never. So, why is it such a surprise when I don't with him? I didn't backstab him. I will admit that I lied to him but I feel no allegiance to someone I don't have an alliance with. I have a Final 2 alliance with Gracie and I have never lied to her. I have an alliance with Ellie. I have a close pact with Jenne, but you can pretty much call it an alliance. I won't lie to that girl! She is one awesome chick. And I feel close to Kyle, but not very much. I would've voted him out last TC for Gracie, so you know where I stand. It's no disrespect to Kyle. This is a game and I am playing it as hard as I can, but I want to be nice. I don't want to be the b*tch who lied and backstabbed. I want to show allegiance to those I have swore honesty to. The perfect Final 4 for me would Gracie, Jenne, Ellie, and Me. I need to hope those three can get me there when I am away. If they don't, I can totally understand. If nothing else, I want to be friends with them after this game.
They are the best. They have made this game worth playing. Thanks.
