Jury Stage and Beyond

[Chima Simone]

~ Week Five ~
So the vote was revealed and I was in the minority...again. I was led to believe that Dom, David, Rachel and myself were to be voting James out when it turns out only Rach & I stuck with that plan. It just looks really bad on us when James comes through immediately after with an endurance HOH win. That was impressive. However, I had told him I voted for Drew to leave and even stuck to that until he just asked me again a few minutes ago. I fessed up to it and...surprise, surprise! He doesn't seem to hate me. I used that as a crutch to build trust between us telling him I have nothing left to hide. He asked what he should do and I pointed out to him that there are six men and three women left in the game and as the numbers dwindle even more, a couple of these guys could sweep in and become major contenders for the win. He agreed to that and said he hadn't noticed it yet. Anyways, to be nominated this week after throwing some major shade to the HOH wouldn't be surprising in the least. I just hope my beauty school charms can work their magic and my name isn't up for eviction this week. "Keep it cute, or put it on mute."

No surprise there! I'll admit to having a glimmer of hope that I might weasel my way out of this one by being straight-up and honest with James but it was too late and I dug myself into a grave with my repetitive lie. Dani gurl has my back this week and together we thought of bringing in Dom & David to create a four-person alliance. That would be ideal for right now but that still leaves me trying to garner one more vote...maybe I'll have leftover goodwill with Jason? Who knows. Or I could just win the veto and continue being the HBIC. I can admit when I fuck up, and this was definitely one of those times; that still won't keep me from wearing my tunnel-vision goggles and going after James's ass full throttle. There's no more time for being a soft bitch, if I made my bed I'll lay in it. If I live to fight another day, it's war.

Hahah, thanks Rachel gurrrl. You've apparently been digging yourself into a hole since your HOH week, and that totally benefits me right now. I wasn't even campaigning very hard until earlier today when I confirmed with Dani, David, Drew & Domi that they were all voting in my favor to stay this round! Then after the veto ceremony Joe, who was someone I felt I couldn't trust to keep me here, calls Rachel out right then and there! This is tooooo good, loves it. If I am blindsided this week I'll have no problem calling each and every one of these people out but I'm glad it looks like I won't be doing that I wouldn't be shocked to see Rachel voted out unanimously but at the same time I don't want to get too confident about that because over-confidence is always a downfall in this game.

A unanimous vote in my favor? I feel better than ever in the game after this and not being nominated last week during the anonymous vote. How I lied to the HOH prior to his win, got caught, was put up for eviction and managed to stay with full support from everyone is beyond me but I'll take it. Winning this next HOH doesn't even sound appealing because I'll only have to betray a couple people...but I have not lived up to my standards as a villainess yet. There's still time to get wicked but I'm also trying to win here

I cry misogyny! I can understand why Joe nominated me and I loveeeeed that he called me fabulous and basically campaigned for me to stay at the ceremony. Am I seriously going to be the last woman left in the game with six guys? Unbelievable. It just sucks that I'm up against an ally (again, sorta). I won't hold back on my campaign to stay and I will do my very best to win that veto. I am sick and tired of people thinking they can just nominate me every week so I need to prove all these jocks wrong and win the whole damn thing. I want to lose it on one of these boys but I need to keep my cool until this whole "Let's nom Chima erryweek" phase is over with.

~ Week Six, Pre-Veto Competition ~
It's funny to me how week 1 I formed the "secret wedding" alliance with Jason where we exchanged rings with each other but it turned out to be a total fluke! I kind of view him as a lost cause at this point in the game. Then I went on to being in a gurl power alliance of sorts with Keesh, Dani, & Rachel...that wasn't properly formed at all and it looks like I may be the last woman standing from that attempted power alliance. I am still running strong with my stoner bond ally, David! We've been very open with one another about our thoughts on the houseguests, plans if we win HOH, all that. He's been by my side cheering me on since week one and I'm making sure to hold on tight to that bond. The best part of it is I don't think anyone realizes it yet Drew says he has my back and Dom and I have been friendly for a while now, but not necessarily game-wise. There's a certain respect there I feel like, and I hope he plans on keeping me around again. Two weeks in a row with a unanimous vote in my favor to stay would be bitchin but I still want that pretty golden necklace. Basically my gameplay is a hot mess but somehow I keep on hanging around and I can't really complain about that. Now, onto *fingers crossed* winning the veto comp!

Dominic just straight up told me he's voting me out. Is that because I'm a "social threat" like Keesha was? He was the mind behind her eviction so I can see why he would feel threatened by me after I just stayed last week in full favor. I'm going to call that boy out if he costs me my game, no doubt about that! I'm sick of all these guys thinking they're here on summer vacation. Half of them haven't won shit and just sit around looking pretty until it comes time to vote, where they're almost always swayed. So the swing vote this week should be Jason, unless David or Drew f's me over big time. This may be my last DR sesh
