Last game my strategy was to be self-aware. To not let anybody decide my fate in the game besides myself. That didn't quite work out well for me. Yes, I was self-aware, to an extent that I may have over analyzed and over thought many moves that I made throughout my season. My flaw was not letting anybody else decide my fate. I thought that I needed a second person with me 100% (who I had in Tess I believe) and that that would help me continue farther in the game, but instead it turned out to be my Achilles heel. People are telling me now that being so close with Tess last time was the reason why I was booted (because she had immunity). If that be the case (not sure if it is the case really, but rather that Tess is an easy scapegoat to cast blame on, since shes not in this season, and both Luca and Perry have burned bridges with me), I want to have people with me, but I do not want to give off the perception this time around that I am unwilling to waiver for certain allys of mine. Never make the same mistake twice.
But this time around, I am a new Hannah Banana. I was a sweet girl last time, this time I will be the same sweet girl, yes, but I will have a heart of fire. The pits of hell have changed me obviously. I want to play a strong social game, one like last time, where certain people WANT to keep me in the game because I am nice to have around (I mean hey, its the reason it was Rosemary voted off, not me) but I do not want to give off the impression that I am a strong competitor that has to be taken down. I want to play the middle as long as possible, because being a complex player can hurt you in a game where people are constantly looking for people to target. Id rather lay low and be branded as a sheep than be an over the top moron, who people cant handle.
But anywhooooo, lets get to the challenge. It was meant to bond our tribe, strengthen what connections we have with one another. To that I say, not needed. A win can bond a tribe, yes, but to what extent? When a tribe wins, and wins, and wins, what happens? They get tired of players, and tired of people on their tribe that they cannot get rid of. Yes, maybe it is early to throw a challenge, but my perceptions tell me that a tribe is much more bonded when they come together to target and vote out another player, rather than when they win a challenge. So for that, I did not give my 'all' in last nights challenge. Hell, I didn't even start trying to work on room #3 for my color. Why win, when we can lose, and I feel safe either way. (in before this is the death of me and there is a huge plot to take out poor lil' Hannah).
Besides the challenge, the dynamics of the tribe are...odd to be quite frank. Luca immediately knew he had damage control to do with me and I genuinely appreciated it. He seems like a nice and sweet guy, but I know he is an amazing player, far beyond my paygrade, so I need to keep an eye out for him. He is the Goliath to my David, but instead of fighting him right off the bat, I would rather work with Goliath a bit. Learn how he became so strong. Emily and Knox...atm they are extras. Both missed the challenge, and both seem sweet, but nothing of substance there. Perry has barely tried to continue conversations with me besides smileys and shit...its like ok, you voted me out before, MAKE me trust you, which he has yet to do.
Selena and Ellen however, are by far my favorites. Me and Selena hit it off SO well to begin with. She is someone who I just click with and instantly trust, but always have my reservations. Ellen is know to be an amazing player, but I like her as a person. That may be apart of her game, but rather be with a great player than against them, because being against them is how you get out, but I can almost see her horns sticking out of her head...so I have to watch out.
Besides that, the vote should be simple this round, between those who didn't show for the challenge. So if that is the case, I should just keep low, and push for whoever I want to stay, to stay (that being Knox atm because I hear Emily has people from other tribes pushing for her to stay).
I was an angel before. I died and went to hell. Came back a Devil. Hannah has come to play, and don't you forget it.
P.S. AJ is my actual F2, Knox can suck a dick! GL!
