For me, the Game thus far has been ____ consuming.
D. All of the above.
I grossly underestimated how much of a commitment this game requires to succeed, but I’m confident that I have what it takes to go far and feel I'm doing a pretty good job so far. But that's what also fuels my paranoia...
As I said in one of the first round’s confessionals, right off the bat I felt an instant connection with David, Ashley and Lamont because we four were on the call for about 3 hours on the first night. We had a long time to just sit around talking, shooting the shit and getting to know one another. As far as I know the first day is one of the most crucial because that's when bonds get formed. It's true of Big Brother, it's true of the real Survivor (not that this is any less real
bc it's JUST as real right now!) so it would make sense that it would be just as vital on our first night... and it was!
That being said, I also caught a really good energy off of Amber from the short time she was on the call… and I don’t recall Sophi calling in for more than a few minutes and hardly talked at all, so I didn’t get to talk with her much. Oh, I forget if I've mentioned this before, but Sophi DID reach out to me on the first day via chat asking if I was hispanic (I am) and then vowing to stick together because “Latinos stick together”… I was skeptical when she said it but I had no reason to distrust her at the time so I just went with it and said sure.
That being said I highly doubt we'll work together as I’m already hearing word she’s been gunning hard for me to go first and that she MADE an alliance of 4 with people that I’m working with! I emphasized MADE because she apparently created the group before checking with the others and just said "we're working together". Guess that means my alliance is over.
Despite that I’ve been calling in to our daily calls and chatting, greeting and goofing off with everyone in the group chats as much as is socially acceptable without coming off as needing to be the center of attention all the time, while also maintaining my 1-on-1 chats with each of my tribe members, well 5, since one won't talk to me much.
The challenge was interesting this week and I’m just thankful we got enough points to NOT have to go to Tribal this week. This game is getting more and more fun but also proving to be a major source of anxiety and paranoia. My phone battery hates me and my friends think I’m antisocial because I'm constantly checking my phone.
Meanwhile this is gonna be me all weekend as this next challenge looms over the horizon...
