I keep thinking this is all a nightmare. And I'm gonna wake up. And Hunter is gonna be 10th fucking place. And Jenna and Jeremiah are still here. And honestly I've hit the lowest of the low. I literally feel rock bottom right now with no way of climbing back up. I feel like I was right about Woo and Liz being close all aLóng and people doubted me, but it's reason why she's still fucking here and the reason why Neal literally flipped to people who voted for him two rounds ago. Like WHAT the fuck can I actually do? I just need to sleep, refresh my mind and tackle tomorrow with an attitude. Because I'm just feeling like this is quickly approaching the end of the line for me. But there's always a pecking order. All I have to do is buy myself more time, and maybe I can actually win a fucking immunity challenge. | | |

This round is just giving me such bad vibes. I feel so vulnerable and for that reason I think the only reason I stay longer is if I win immunity. Luckily for me, there'll be two opportunities to do that. But we know I suck at challenges, and now that Rita has won immunity through the auction, if Nick wins immunity then it'll most definitely be my death in this game. I always try to be optimistic, but these peoples' intentions have been made clear through the way they're talking and acting through this challenge. I can't make a bid without being immediately blocked by someone else, it really sucks. But if I'm anything, it's resourceful. And looking at the way Nick gave Rita money for immunity, I plan on using this to extend my life in the game. If I can convince people from the other side that I'm mad at Nick for effectively ~giving~ Rita immunity, then maybe I can buy myself some more time. It might look bad for Nick, but hey if we're continuing a trend then it's one more jury vote for me, I'd hope. I'm just really not ready to go. I've been so proud of my achievements so far, even though some have fell flat on their face. But making the top 9 in a crazy game like this was something I never expected to do. Yeah, I'm in a rough spot right now that is preventing me from doing literally anything I actually want to in terms of strategy and moves. But pain is temporary, and like everything else I'll strive to pull through. | | |

So I'm 99.9% sure their plan right now is to vote me out. Neal hinted as much, so it's time for me to tap into the emotional side to try and get Neal on board with me. I basically just mentioned to him about how I don't hold anything against him and I ~love his personality~ and think we ~get aLóng great~. Pretty much anything I can to tug on those heartstrings and make him wanna do something. Furthermore, I pushed the fact that it's suicide going to final 8 with 4 Mushu. He said he didn't think they're as close as people think, and I reminded him that maybe not as a unit but it's made up of 2 pairings. Which only makes it more difficult for us outsiders to make it to the end.
I also told a little white lie. I want Neal to think that me, Nick and Rita are not solid anymore. And I did this by telling him I'm pissed Nick gave Rita the money for immunity over me, and it made it clear where I was on that totem pole. If this doesn't make Neal completely flip, then it might make them reconsider their vote for me onto Nick, and I'll take that. It's all about just buying myself more time. Doing that provides more time for cracks to appear and people to realise everything is not all rosy in the garden. | | |

Well everything seems to be working themselves out, and clearly either my guilt tripping works. OR I was right all aLóng about Neal and Liz wanting to play the flipper game. Whichever one of those is correct, it's perfect for me. If my guilt tripping has worked, I've schmoozed myself into a fantastic position. And I think this is what's happening, simply because 3 people from the other side have approached me apologising about their actions over the past 3 rounds. Now this might set alarm bells off that I'm gonna be screwed, but it's a totally different tone as though they intend to right their wrongs. These people are Rachel, Liz and Neal. And the part about the flipper game, well, Liz just told me she's game to vote out Hunter this round. Which is quite literally music to my ears, and then, mere minutes later. Neal came to me with the same plan. It's just perfect, because if it works out and Hunter does leave then next round, I'll be set up perfectly. I can go with Liz/Neal and vote whoever out. Or alternatively, I'm certain Mushu aren't gonna be all happy about them flipping. So there could be a shift against them. But ideally my plan is to stick with them moving forward. Playing a flipper game isn't exactly something that gains widespread respect, and I think if I was sitting in a final 3 with them, then I'd have a decent shot at winning. But right now, we're focusing on this vote. I've got Nick and Rita in the know and they are on the same page with voting for Hunter, and Nick and Liz have agreed to it too. If they're lying about it, they just lost themselves 3 more jury votes, which isn't exactly smart. So we'll see what happens, I am very hopeful this is gonna work out though. I can't wait til tribal. | | |

Now the only conceivable thing I see taking me out of the game this tribal is an idol play which is of course very possible. Hunter and Rachel are likely voting for me, so we'll see what happens. I hope Liz and Neal do enough to make Hunter feel safe so that he doesn't play it. But at the end of the day, I have no control over that side of things. So I'll just need to let it all play out. How poetic would it be if Jaison and I, da real dynamic duo of this game both reached the same tragic conclusion. | | |

So before the vote I was approached by Hunter, who had approached Rita and Nick. He told me that he was "willing" to vote for Liz this round. And I'm like... oh? Why, thank you, my highness. I'm so grateful that you have finally come to the conclusion and are willing to vote for Liz. Like...... no. You're not a king. And I'm not a peasant. I'm equal to you in this game, you don't approach people like you're all high and mighty saying you're willing to keep them safe. Especially when your name is on the chopping block. It ain't gonna happen. Rita was messaging me prior to the vote about actually voting Liz, but I wasn't gonna let that happen. Not when Hunter has slid by vote after vote, not when he was intending on voting for me, and especially not after he acted like some self centered idiot. I was happy to write his name out and see him leave the game. Now, Rachel's brain is gone and hopefully I can seize that opportunity to reign her in. Of course, there's always the chance that she'll wanna work with Neal/Liz/Hope/Woo. But this is all hypotheticals, and after all, they DID just lie to her and blindside her number 1 ally. I didn't pretend I was gonna vote with her, and I didn't give her false hope. So it's time to butter her up so I can use her this next round. I feel like I've been given a new lease of life, and that means so much in this game. But I was definitely in part responsible for this vote, and it's something I can claim. Because it would never have happened had I not gotten Rita and Hunter on board. Sure, Hope and Woo voted in line. But it wouldn't have happened without my coaxing of Rita and being adamant that Hunter had to go. If it wasn't for me, it could've been a very different scenario with Liz leaving. So the bitch better be grateful. | | |
