I walk onto the island and I see some friendly faces, but I also see some unfriendly faces. This game could seriously go either way. Making relationships on Day 1 is the most important part of the game. Day 1 paves the way until the very end. I’m on vacation so I have not been able to be as social as I normally would be, but I am still trying my best.
I will start by giving an assessment of my tribe.
Martin - I have not interacted with Martin and I have never even heard of him before. Personally, I see him as an easy first boot on the tribe or at least an early boot. I am not too fond of his loved one, so as of now, I do not see any reason for me to work with Martin. However, things can change.
Octavia - I am not a big fan of Octavia. I don’t know her personally, but we have played games together in the past and not been on the same side of things.
Max A & Marissa- Might as well do them together! I thought we were playing Duos, so it’s funny that I see a clear tight alliance of four instantly, which consists of Max T, Marissa, Max A, and Chance. I get along with Max A pretty well, but unfortunately we aren’t on the same tribe and I do not see us going too far together. Max T and I have had our differences, but after talking with Marissa it’s possible we form a small group on our tribe to survive the first few tribals. It’s inevitable that we will turn on each other eventually, I just need to make the move at the right time.
Kamani - Kamani and I have had our issues. We are in a game right now and have been pretty vocal about our feelings towards each other, however we have been trying to fix things. It’s possible Kamani and I can be on the same page, but it will be hard to balance a relationship in two games with him, especially with one nearing the end and I will likely have to turn on him. He is hot headed like me, but I think that we can work together for the first few days.
Haylee - I like Haylee a lot. We aren’t close friends, but we are very friendly towards each other and I do consider her a friend that I just don’t talk to often. I definitely see us working together because we get along great. I don’t see her as a strategic mastermind in this game, so she is someone I definitely want to take far. I think a lot of people will want to work with her because she is social and is fairly genuine about her feelings.
Vivian - One of my favorite people in the world. I know that Vivian will never turn on me and I have her back as well. She had her duo, but I truly believe she will be more loyal to me than she will be to her own duo. It’s good to have her because she is very likable and hopefully she can fill me in if my name comes up on the chopping block.
Jeff - I wasn’t sure how I would be with Jeff, but we have been clicking so far. I talked to him probably more than I talked to others and I could sense the paranoia from him. He doesn’t seem to have many friends, so I think he is someone I can use for a while until I no longer need him.
Blair - Definitely an early target of mine. I haven’t spoken to her and I feel like we have had issues in prior games.
Overall, I do think my performance this season could go either way. When I play, I play hard. There is absolutely a possibility that I am first boot or I could very well make it to finals. I will give it my all. I am worried about the strength of my tribe, though. The other tribe appears to be strong…I know I am a great competitor, but it will be interesting to see how the rest of my tribe fairs in competitions, as many of them are not usuals in the group game community.
I am looking forward to the season and playing the game. I never like committing myself to a new series unless I am truly ready, and I think that I am ready. However, in a season of duos, you really have to be looking out for two people. I think that I can handle this. If I am wrong and I fail, oh well, but I promise I will not go down without a fight.
I am here…and I am here to play. These losers have no idea what is coming.
