Episode Five :: Weight Loss

[Erica Durousseau]

So Becky quit. That was tough. I really think BB is cancer in our tribe because I felt she did a lot and for her to go, I am alliance-less. What I mean by that is, I do have alliances but I don't have anyone I can trust 100%. It's a horrible feeling, I just wish we had time to discuss her decision because she left me out drive. There are still 17 people left in this game, that's a lot and we're not even half-way. I think I might have to start digging into this game.

I do not trust Alex at all. I think he is going around and asking everyone for alliances, that's not a good strategy because if someone catches on, like myself it's only going to end in a blindside. I hope it happens sooner than later. We have a lot of fat to trim on this tribe, it starts with BB, then Dave then Alex. Then, the tribe will be peaceful.

BB, he just gets under my skin. He's a womanizer and doesn't treat any of us with respect. Do you ever see him treat a male player with disrespect? No! It's really sad that in this day and age people are still sexist. I can work through it though. There are still 7 other girls in this game. He's going to have to work through that. I can guarantee you this though, I will not crack like Becky did. I am strong! I can do this, I can handle this.

But I will tell you one thing, I am not going to stoop down to his level. Then nobody wins.

I look at my words of wisdom to give me strength. "This is as good as it's going to get, and I'm okay with that". It gives me strength every time I read it and when I read it, I get chills down my spine. It makes me humble. It make me know that as good as it is, it can always be worse and I am thankful for that.

I especially need it now since I don't really connect with anyone on my tribe with Becky gone. With Seventeen left I really need to suck it up and start strategizing with people I don't like.

But I don't dislike everyone, I really do like Ace & Michelle, I just feel they are associated with the wrong people in the game. I think if we find a fourth member we could be a powerful quad but I need to be subtle about it for it to work. Michelle has alliances with everyone and I know that but I think I can pull her to my side.

Let's hope it works.
