I'll be using this one to try to organize my thoughts for the future.
First entry:
I think I've successfully put myself in a good spot. Pedro thinks I'm someone he can turn to and the rest of the house just thinks I'm bubbly and cute, not a threat. And with all this fallout going on, this is the perfect place to be. I'm not on anyone's radar for eviction, and if someone who I've messaged is on the block, I can barter with them to keep them safe.
I do think Russell and Pedro are telling the truth about the giant alliances, but recent events show that is fractured and they are successfully turning on each other. Pedro probably wants me to do some dirty work for him, but I'd much rather he win this HOH and go after Buffy.
For next step, I do want to establish an alliance of multiple people, but I can't be the one to initiate it unless I have some power. Right now if I went to someone and tried to make an alliance, it could look a bit suspicious if I don't phrase myself properly. I want someone else to take that heat for me.
I am sad Russell and Amy quit. I got along with both, I enjoyed reading their posts and I felt they were people who I could turn to put on smile. But I hope they're doing better today now that they're out of this environment.
