Aw, I don't think I will be the new HoH. I hit a lot of dead ends and I hit a road block as well while I was doing the challenge. It seems like it took me a very long time to finish it. By the time I hit the end and had to post the image I had so many tabs open that my browser was super slow and I couldn't get back to the first tab fast enough to post the image quickly. That really wasted some time. But we shall see. It was a lot of fun. I'll just hope that if I don't win HoH that Alison or Heaven win.

Well this sucks! I should have stuck with purple when I was doing the HoH. I switched to green at the roadblock because I felt purple was screwing me over. Now I'm with people I don't like.
I sent Keith a congratulatory PM but did not try and bring up my safety or any strategy. I hope to talk to him later. I wonder if I can push original house loyalty on Keith and get him to target house 1 people. I would like Ryan to leave this round. He is the biggest social and strategic threat from original house 1. I would not want Jon or Topaz to leave but I would have to act like I do to Keith and just talk to Jon and Topaz if they find out I'm pushing house 1 for nomination. This could work because Keith said last round that no one from house 1 was bothering to talk to him.
I won't say anything until Keith asks me my opinion or at least replies to my PM. Have to play it cooler than I did last round with Kenny.

Kaysar is keeping all of House 2 safe. Keith should follow suit. Plus Kenny and Nick are in that mindset unless they are lying to my face so again, Keith should keep all of our original house safe.

Last night was really interesting. So much happened. I'm now in an alliance with Aaryn, Allison, and Jordan. I don't know how that happened but a big LOL to that. Like I am going to remain loyal to that alliance. As if. I'll remain loyal for a little while but this alliance does not benefit me in the longrun. It is a power move by Aaryn. I think she feels I am well connected and wants to stay close with me. Her true allegiance lies with Jordan and Keith, apparently. She told me that she has been talking with Keith since before the game started. Oh really? I had to go along with this alliance because Aaryn has really turned on the aggression, and who says no to an alliance? But it just shows me that Aaryn needs to leave in the future. She threatened me later in the night and told me that any information she tells me needs to stay between us and if it doesn't then she will find out. Oh...okay. Such a friendly ally.
I will use this new alliance to my benefit for a few rounds. Aaryn wants to talk to Keith and try and get him to put Michelle up this round. Not sure that is going to fly. But if it does, perfect! That's what I wanted in the first place.
In other news, Nick said that Keith told him that he will probably nominate Ryan and Benedict. Then Benedict told me that Keith told him he will not nominate him because at least he tried to talk to him. If Ryan goes up, that's perfect. He's the other person that I want gone this round. So if the Michelle thing falls through, at least I can get rid of Ryan (hopefully).
I tried to talk to Keith but he did not reply to me. So this is another reason this new alliance could really help me. If Aaryn has pull with Keith she can help me avoid nomination.
Another development that came about because of the alliance action happening last night was me finding out that Aaryn and Jordan want Memphis out. That is such a shame and I hope it does not happen. I like Memphis and I'd like for him to stick around. Ideally, before I was suckered into this alliance I would have liked Jordan to leave this round. I hadn't spoken with her. Now I have to talk to her often and we haven't even spoken one on one yet, just in a blast chat. Now, my ideal target from House 1 would be Kathy. Kathy is active and I don't really like her that much. If she left this round, I'd have good relations and alliances with everyone remaining in that house.
Want to talk to Keith, ugh. I need him to come online. I won't be able to come on much this morning/early afternoon. I hope I can speak to him before noms.

Had to send Keith a PM and that is not what I wanted to do. I wanted to talk to him in person but he has been so difficult to get a hold of and I'm not really available today. I just basically pushed him in Ryan's direction. This is what I sent him...
"Tried to catch you online last night and this morning. Just wanted to let you know my thoughts on the nominations because we may not catch each other online today. I spoke with our original house 2 peeps and they were all on the same page about keeping house 2 safe. I'm sure that is your thought as well, and it would have been my thought too had I won HoH. So assuming that, it leaves you with four options for nominations. Personally, I'd definitely be nominating Ryan. Ryan has done very well in the challenges and is a social threat as well. He's an all around threat and he is scary. Nick said the two of you spoke and you were thinking Ryan and Benedict. I support whatever decision you make and if those are the two that you're considering nominating, definitely a good thing that you're deciding to nominate Ryan! We need to send that guy packing!
Hope to talk to you at some point today. I've got a long shift at work today but I'll be around here and there when I can and I'll be on when I'm done my shift."
So whatever. I'm not trying to be bossy...but I am...but I'm not. I just need to say SOMETHING to the dude before he makes his noms and get in his ear a little bit.

Can I laugh right now? I'm not nominated. The people I would want nominated (Jordan, Kathy, Ryan) are nominated. I'm not nominated. I also spoke with Michelle while "drunk" and convinced her that we are good because we have good convos when we do converse. LOL.

So Benedict tells me that he will probably be using the veto. Are you kidding me? That's an awful idea man. If he does use it, I'm through with him and if I stay in the game I will make it my mission to evict him. I've got to convince him not to use it. I made a good case to him and hopefully he realizes using it would not be in his best interests because it would piss people off. He feels torn because they both told him that they would use it on him if he were nominated and they were not.

Pretty sure I'm going home. Kind of defeats any purpose of writing a confessional about things that happened earlier since I was totally wrong about everything. I don't know why Keith did this to me.
