So I don’t know what I was thinking last round, maybe all the blood had rushed to my head since my board flipped around, but I honestly didn’t expect for Kelsey to do what she did. Targeting me is one thing, it’s fine to feel closer to someone else but to full on lie to my face and make up fictitious lies to justify your own decisions is just tragic. My only strategy going into campaigning to stay was to act defeated and display clear targets, maybe that was enough? Either way luckily for me I had decent enough relationships with the remaining houseguests that allowed me to slide by another round.
[break][break]
Starting off this new round I was in complete disbelief that I had even survived the previous round… If I’m honest I didn’t see the benefit in keeping me over Arlie. Especially for the likes of Corey. Arlie was indefinitely someone he had a greater shot at beating going forward not only in challenges but the game itself. However, I’m not going to complain too much. When it came to the HoH challenge, literally the worst happened we had four out of six people competing that I would have been happy winning but it had to be one of the two that managed to snatch the win. I’m so frustrated at myself for not just taking my time and going slow. Considering accuracy would have been enough to win it this time around.
[break][break]
So Natalie wins and I’m definitely going up. Her and Howie have been super standoffish since the previous round which is expected. The real question is who am I going to go up against and who do I want to go up against? I honestly don’t know, in my mind Porsche would be my ideal opponent on the block because I feel as though she’s a bigger threat. However, I don’t think these people care about that at this point and they’re the ones with all the power considering the only votes needed are two (with Natalie breaking the tie). Natalie decides on putting Porsche up and I guess that’s okay? She’s arguably weaker in challenges than Corey/Erika and a bigger threat than myself.
[break][break]
When it comes to the veto, it’s basically a modified version of the HoH competition. This makes me incredibly nervous considering Natalie just won it and what’s to stop her from doing it again. I get Houseguests choice and I decide to pick Erika. This isn’t a tough decision for me… at this point she’s the only person who hasn’t betrayed me throughout the whole game, she’s also a half decent challenge competitor. Ideally she wins and uses it on me but me winning will have to do if she can’t pull it off herself.
[break][break]
So once being placed on the block I made an effort to go and ask if I was the target to Natalie which she responded blatantly with a “yes”. I also made an effort to go and talk to Kelsey and ask what she would do if nominations were to say the same. She said she would evict me (funny considering how sympathetic and remorseful she was in her letter she messaged to me on Proboards). Probably just another last ditch effort incase I was to have won the Head of Household. So basically no matter what if I stay on the block I will go home… Kelsey/Howie will both evict me and Natalie will break the tie (if it even got to that). So at this point my only hope is to win the veto or pray that Erika does and pulls me off.
