FIRST THINGS FIRST...I'M AN IDIOT! You know how sometimes you are just sitting there feeling good and decide to make a decision just for the fun of it. Well I just went for it and suggested we just randomize the sitouts. Well if I would have just taken the time to think about it, it was a 48 hr challenge and what challenge would take that long unless it required a ton of effort....CREATIVE effort!? So that was my mistake since I was actually sort of busy and 100% have no creativity and suck at art so much. I honestly did talk to Stu for a bit throwing ideas back and forth and deciding the boot order of people, but I didn't post one thing so that's all on me. However, Shelli, Mac, Carrie, and Daniele did absolutely nothing as well so at least it's not all on me. I bet Dorothy and Ricky would have put in a ton of effort. THANKFULLY, luck was sort of on our side. Daniele underwent a sad revelation that her fiancé is having troubles so she was too busy/overwhelmed with that to continue participating (is what I got from it). It was extremely bittersweet. I love Daniele to pieces since she is one of the nicest people in this game and very genuine. Also, I planned on aligning myself with her which sucks now. In addition, because she left the game, we were OUT OF THE RUNNING for immunity...which means NO CLUE! Ugh, that's the big reason I try hard in some of these challenges (besides the creative one). Idol clue equals idol equals life in this game if played correctly. Fortunately, this meant we didn't have to go to tribal council. Also, I was planning on posting part of the story, but after I found out we couldn't win anyway, I figured it wasn't worth it since there was nothing we could gain (except Burnie for going to exile, but I had no idea that was the case). Speaking of, Burnie is close to Dorothy and I so hopefully he would let us know if anything of significance happens over on exile. I'm not sure if it's a plus or a minus for our alliance, but I can only hope Burnie is more of a team player than I am. I love how I'm just typing my entire confessional in an extremely long paragraph form...just for you my lovely hostesses <3 Anyways, Dorothy continues to impress me with her kindness and is by far my #1 in this game still. I put some trust in her, but obviously I can't have real trust in her yet since we're still the only tribe yet to go to tribal. Another thing of significance also happened this past episode. CARRIE CAME UP TO ME AND REQUESTED TO ALIGN WITH ME! JUST ME (as far as I know). Last episode, I said she was my target, but because she went to exile, it's probably beneficial to have her as a meat-shield with a bigger target on her back (as long as the opposition doesn't decide to target someone else in fear that she'll play her idol if she has one). Anyways, because she asked me and only me, I figured it meant that she trusted me the most on our tribe which is good personally for my game. She then went on and said that Dorothy and Burnie seemed like nice people as well so I kinda reeled Dorothy in who hopefully will reel Burnie in. This would make for a healthy alliance of 4, but 5 is a majority so we needed someone else...AND DANIELLE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THAT PERSON! buttttt she's gone so whatcha gonna do? Thankfully, tribal hasn't come up so this hasn't been an urgent issue, but it's always nice to have a headstart. I even wonder if Shelli, Mac, Ricky, and Stu have any allegiances to anyone yet. If they do, then darn I'm out of the loop, but I honestly don't see them online enough so I don't know about that. Thank goodness there are no more creative challenges. I can rest home free knowing that I actually can participate a fair amount now. Hopefully, we keep winning so we don't have to establish lines, but we'll see what happens. Until next time, this is Julia Sokolowski signing out. Oh! Also, Stu is a major asset to our tribe at challenges so I personally want him to be our fifth! I don't know how much Dorothy actually likes Carrie so it's always good to keep another person on my side who is liked by the rest of your alliance. NOW BRING ON THE IDOL CLUE!
