EPISODE ONE
Hello hosts and Prediction Writers! I'm excited to be playing an Online Reality game. It will take some adjusting but I hope I convey why I was a good casting choice! So I won't disappoint. *knocks on wood.*
I was waiting for my tribe to be social, but I feared I was slow and that people were making connections. Before the first captain challenge, I briefly chatted with Chelsea, Gregg, Matt, Sandra, Mick, Brenda, and Bobby Jon. I might be forgetting some people, but it's not really important. So when the groups went up, there was speculation that it could be tribes. I personally thought it was too "obvious" but nonetheless, opted to join with Chelsea/Mick to be on group 2 so that we may hopefully end up together. (Separate conversations - I don't believe those two chat)
Surprise - we were to be competing against these people. Which was just a wonderful feeling because these people were jacked up on testosterone - mainly Stephenie and Matt. Stephenie needs some etiquette in how to talk to people and make friends. I got that impression despite never speaking to her. There was some sexual tension and a lil' sexual frustration between them. They passed the wiener to eachother for over an hour. Boy's got stamina.
Our entire group, sans StepheME, was bonding online. A lot of us were tired of it and thought we should just hand it to one of us. So we ended up rolling for it in a chat, and Matt won. I was worried how the other tribes would react to us all posting how awesome we were and how we should stop throwing the potato in PUBLIC. Sheesh people....have some brains. But I don't think it's a huge deal in the end for them, because I think some of these people already have allies in other tribes. So they weren't worried about that perception. Bobby Jon straight up told me Chase & Amber would pick him if they won captain.
I ended up messaging Misty during the challenge because I was bored. I soon realized I recognized her screen-name from a game awhile back. It was very tempting to tell her who I was but I didn't. She probably thinks I'm weird, because I started to casually talk to her with a lot of comfort, all the while trying to make sure she didn't recognize me. Oh well. Bad first impression!
I was very nervous waiting for the tribe revelations. It was really exciting to find out that I was with 5 of the 9 group 2 members. PHEW! That is a VERY good start when you don't know much of anyone. I was happy to be with Chelsea and Matt. I spent the most time talking with them during the challenge. I'll miss Mick and I think Bobby Jon would of been a good ally. (We formed a Bear alliance. Lol) At least Sandra and Aras held up a conversation, much better than Gregg.
ANYWAYS. Done rambling. That is a hot mess of my thoughts up there^, but I wanted to mention all that jazz
We're black and named Salchicha? It's the best color and name of the bunch, I'll give Matt that. So I'll give my thoughts on each tribemate:
Castaway Commentary
Matt's great! He is the captain and clearly the leader of this tribe, I feel. He is definitely the most active on AIM. I was helping him out in the challenge last night by telling him when it went to a new page, during his little spat with Steph. I think he must feel closer to Chelsea (they flirt) and Sandra based on the tribe selections. I feel like he, Misty, and Chase were generous to eachother and gave eachother people who they would work with. But I must of left a good enough impression to be picked over the others from group 2. Hopefully he'll become a solid ally. Easy to talk with.
My favorite on this tribe right now! The only other blonde female castaway, and we hit it off immediately. In my opinion the two most attractive Survivors this season.
Definitely aligned with her! So we pretty much feel the "Girl Power" in this man tribe. AND SERIOUSLY A LOT OF THESE GUYS FLIRT. So I think my character choice, along with Chelsea...was a good way to make friends because these people are horny.
She can get loud, too! Someone really hates Sandra. Her karma is laughable lol. Thankfully that's not me. Either she really has an enemy from another game, or someone is just having some fun. I think we'll be good with eachother for now, based on convenience. We're both from group 2 and both talk to Chelsea a lot it seems, so it's easy to ally that way. She is very social I think though - probably has been more than myself. That can come in handy. But can get dangerous if I let her get the edge in that department.
I messaged him about our castaways being models. Hush, I know that's lame but I just wanted to say SOMETHING. Chelsea said she likes him. I'll try and get him to like me too. I think Matt also could know him? He was picked pretty early for someone not in group 2. He might of asked for him and they are all from One World. Anyways, he may be a liability in challenges because he lives in Britain. Hopefully not all challenges are live. I don't see him in jeopardy due to apparent ties.
Aras is a likeable guy. Conversations went well. What I first talked to him about though? Couldn't tell you. Standard meet and greet flavored with team spirit. I hope to make an alliance with him soon though. We have all the pieces as to why we should work together, we just haven't put them together.
I haven't spoken to Cochran and I don't feel like I need to. There was a chat tonight where majority of the people said they haven't either and that he should be the first to go. (Provided Mike's vacation doesn't hurt us) But seriously, who picks Cochran? I wanted to vote him out just because of that lmao. He was a bad gameplayer on the show who cried about being bullied when nobody was bullying him. I am judging his taste, I don't care. (Sorry any Cochran fans reading) Not to mention, I think this guy is only on in the mornings? FORGET YOU GO HOME GOODBYE.
Mike's personality is a bit bland, or perhaps he is having difficulty warming up. He seems nice and...controllable? Though. It got really awkward when he asked who he should make a boot list of in a chat with myself, Matt, Chelsea, Sandra, and Aras. He mentioned Cochran, Jay, and Sekou - all of group 3 - as targets. I think people were defending Jay so that left Cochran the easy target. I get the feeling Mike may be in trouble though if his vacation makes US in trouble. Which would be a shame as I rather he stay than Cochran/Sekou.
Want to know the first conversation we had?
Sekou Sekou: sekou
Sydney Wheeler: sydney
Now that we've taken name call...and know who everyone is. This guy is an obvious troll. He is cannon fodder in this cast. Do not see him winning or lasting long. All the girls want to boot him. I bet he'd get off to that too.
All for now!

All for now!
) Sekou doesn't need to think. He just needs to continue to look pretty. With Cochran, I hope to vote him out first. We'll see!
Instantly I knew Chelsea was the person who would do the best job at the tiebreaker, so I suggested she try it out. I figured I would do the second best in this challenge, but I tried anyways. It's a good thing she submitted. We won our second straight challenge!! 
3 seconds more and we'd be going to Tribal Council.
I see her logic, but I like the guy. I think taking out Mike would do a little damage as well - if he is tight with Chase as presumed. There isn't that much fear for my own safety should we lose, so I'm really hoping tribes remain intact for awhile longer.
