My feelings on the tribe swap: blaaaaaah -_-, then 
, followed by 
.
Before the swap Jay approached everyone about throwing challenges if it ended up with minority Menba on one side. I agreed and pretended like I was really into the idea, just to save my own ass. I wouldn't have thrown challenges to protect anyone, besides maybe Lisa or Matt. Matt told me he would throw challenges for me, but not anyone else, though he agreed to Jay's plan too. I feel like my plan to slowly pull him in over time, which will make him more confident in our bond, is working amazingly.
It sucks that Matt and Brandon are on the other team. I talked with both of them about meeting back up in a merge type situation before the swap reveal though. I tried to make Brandon feel as comfortable as possible by telling him he'd remain my number 1.
Danni and Abi being together makes me nervous. One (more likely Danni) may get paranoid and try to take out the other if they lose, putting Matt and Brandon in potential danger.
I'm glad that Jay is still on my team. He's great in challenges and now I can form a better relationship with him. That'll come in handy since I anticipate having to blindside him for his strength at one point
Lisa being here is great for me. I trust her to keep her word to me 100%, she's also a solid performer in challenges.
Rory being here is good, on a trial basis. I've had the least amount of personal connection with him, but we still do talk a decent amount. I think the foundation is solid enough to prevent him from forming a block with the Luobas, but I'm going to keep an eye on it.
Tyson is okay. He's definitely made an effort for it, but I'm suspicious of him. Thankfully Jay shared my suspicions, so we could, in theory, vote him off if we lose.
Alexis gave me SO MUCH information about the old Luoba tribe. I'm not sure how much of it to believe, but I'm leaning towards it being true. She told me:
Vote one: Susie was inactive, it was easy
Vote two: Charlie, Tina, and Tijuana vs RC, Malcolm, and Tyson. With herself and Jonas in the middle as a duo. Clearly they chose alliance 2
Vote four: Alexis and Jonas betray that alliance because of Malcolm's inactivity on AIM and in the challenge. As a result RC and Tyson now hate her.
RC and I have not spoken yet.
