Week One Confessional

[Lydia Morales]

Gah! <3 I'm excited to finally be back in the gaming world!

So although the game just began... it's already heating up quite a bit.

I have an alliance with Brianna, and Vecepia already! Crazy, right? So I have high hopes for our alliance, I'm pretty stoked that I'm already part of something concrete... especially since I know that a lot of people get voted out early in these games, and I need some sort of protection and security.

Brianna and I spoke very briefly and then she asked me to be in an alliance already which is kind of weary, because we don't really have any true connection... and I wonder if she is going around to just about everyone and asking for an alliance. However, Vecepia and I have talked quite a bit so that's why I'm optimistic about the alliance.

I also have spoken to Rafe quite a bit, and he seems nice and can actually carry a conversation! So now I just need to start talking to more of the people on my tribe and hopefully everyone likes me.

So I'm really bummed that we have to vote three people out... it sucks majorly, especially since I didn't compete in the challenge so I'm feeling pretty vulnerable. But I'm going to do EVERYTHING in my power to stay in the game, and so far... I'm feeling more optimistic than I thought I would have when I originally heard the results.

So I've spoken to Jamie quite a bit, and we hit it off great and he is a good friend of mine in this game. I really like his personality, and things are going great!

I met Morgan, who is amazing... and she's like basically my final two alliance. Which is good, because I was really nervous because Brianna originally told me that Morgan wanted me out. Interesting. Hahaha

So... we lose the challenge and Brianna comes up to me and says that she wants to vote out Brian, Amy, and then either Morgan or Jamie in that order. Gah! So I'm feeling happy that my name isn't in there at all... then like 5 minutes later I find out from Brianna that Morgan wants to vote me out 3rd. Which honestly, it doesn't surprise me because I had not talked to Morgan and hadn't competed in the challenge. So, I tell Brianna well at least I'm 3rd on her list so now I can talk to her and try to win her over.... Instantly Brianna is trying to stop me from doing so, which I think is really strange because obviously I'm going to introduce myself to her and try to win her over.

So I go over to Morgan and start talking, and we hit it off great... exchanged cell phone numbers became BFF's and then she tells me that Brianna told her that Gary, Vecepia, and I want Morgan voted out. I'm shocked... so I told her the truth about how Brianna mentioned Morgan's name. Cray Cray. So the shit hits the fan... Vecepia, Morgan, and I then discussed turning the tables on Brianna and voting her out because she seems really sketchy and playing the game way too hard way too fast. So we discuss the plans and really like the idea, and then we bring Gary into the picture.... meanwhile Gary seems skeptical. So hopefully Gary's on board with the whole thing because I wouldn't mind Brianna leaving the game, it inches me in with more people and gives me a more advantage since I already have an alliance with Vecepia and now Morgan.

So when we were discussing the vote we're not sure we have enough votes to get rid of Brianna, so we were discussing voting out Brian, Brianna, and then Amy... in that order.

I'm super stoked, I'm slowly making some really strong relationships... it's looking like I'm going to survive this round due to all the drama and a few other less active people on the tribe! Plus, I'm a firm believer that the best person at challenges doesn't stand a chance against the best social player... and I'm playing a pretty aggressive social game at the moment. Haha.

Oh my gosh, so before the last tribal council Gary comes up to me... and asks me if he should change his vote, and if it really even matters. And I told him, no it's safe to keep it as Brian just in case, it's too much work to change a vote. In reality I wanted Gary to make a mistake so that he is drawing a big target on his back in case we go back to tribal council again next week after Brian and Amy are gone. I will not be leaving this game early... so I needed to draw targets on a few people's backs. I also collaborated with Morgan to find out that Rafe and Vecepia are really close, so we will eventually need to split them up. When Morgan was talking to me about this... I was exaggerating and making up the information I had by saying oh yea, Vecepia is always saying great things about Rafe. The only problem is that Morgan wants to vote Vecepia out before Rafe because she likes Rafe and thinks that Vee is hard to talk to... and I don't have a good relationship with Rafe, so I don't want to go to the final four of this tribe with Rafe in it... but hopefully I have some more time to switch a few things around. But I know I wont be voted out soon... *Knocks on Wood*

Jamie's and I conversation also improved last night. I called him, and we talked for quite a bit... he seems like a great guy and someone that I could easily be friends with in real life. We talked game, we talked life, and at the end of the day I really think it strengthened our relationship. He also mentioned to me forming a final three alliance with Morgan and himself which I'm fine with. Honestly... this is a bit egotistical of me, but I think they would both vote each other out before me. Hopefully I'll never have to see that day but I'm really liking this alliance.

After Brianna was voted out, she went off on me and called me a bunch of names. I went off on her, and showed her my ghetto side... and omg, I wish this was real Survivor because I would have gotten in her face so much. But whatever... She's gone, and it's looking like Brian is next or Amy. Those 2 are the next to go it seems and I don't care what order.
