Well, what can I say? Tonight's vote was a surprise. I thought that they would vote for Brandon, but to be honest, I had four votes stacked against me from a previous Tribal Council, and I was mentally prepared to go today.
I feel like I played the game hard and to the best of my ability, and I contemplated for a few minutes today voting for Brandon to save myself just in case they were going to vote for me. I didn't, and that makes me more proud than any possible forward move in this game, because I'm leaving with my pride. Brandon has been loyal to me, and so has Kim, and they're dear, dear friends to me, and I can't even believe I contemplated even once voting for Brandon. I leave tonight with my dignity and my pride. I played the game to the best of my ability and I'm happy about the way things turned out.
I honestly don't think I could have gone on much longer, because this game is a serious emotional roller coaster ride. I'm an athlete, I love to compete; I'm very competitive. I love to get down and dirty, and camp, and do all this rough stuff, but I'd much rather do it in a civilized environment where I'm not battling manipulation and backstabbing and malicious behavior. I don't like that aspect of this game at all. So I'm really, really excited that I had the opportunity to come here. I was picked sixteen out of 50,000 people. That's amazing! I've been given a gift: this opportunity to come to Africa and experience this place.
