Danielle has a set of balls on her! She came out swinging with this HoH and you know what you gotta give her credit for going for it I mean it is Allstars. I cant say it's the move I would've made, but so be it. There was a lot of positioning and jockeying going on before the challenge and for a change I'm not pushing around for alliances I'm letting the game come to me. I'm taking time off from socializing at times and letting others approach me to see who really wants to talk with me and sees me as a possible piece in their game.

Early on in the day yesterday Nick approached me about a possible alliance multiple times I'm just letting him do the legwork on this one. He first spoke about something with Victoria who I have a strong bond with after the partner challenge. We get along well and she seemed like a no-brainer. Later in the day he asked how I felt about Dustin and I would I be interested in anything with him and he said he'd let me know if anything materialized. So if nothing else I know a couple people who Nick is close with as no deals were closed yesterday on my end in that relationship.

When I saw Danielle win HoH I immediately was pleased as she's a houseguest I just joke around with and one of my roommates. She contacted me pretty quickly after she won to let me know I was safe and that she wanted to make a big move. I was like oh shit game on! She also told me she hoped her keeping me safe would prove her loyalty to me and I said I had no questions about her loyalty (I didnt even know loyalty was on the table at this point). So when it came to her move she wanted Jen out, but was debating about how to go about it and I gave her a tidbit that I could probably convince Shane not to use the veto if it came down to it. She asked if I would help her get rid of Jen and I said if that's what she wanted of course. Honestly it's not a bad move on my part, but this morning Jen has been on my ass and asked if I'm Team Jen, I responded I'm Team Whatever's Gonna Help Andrew, but yeah I could probably help her out. Do I have any intentions of vetoing Jen........HELL NO. Will I keep her in the game........maybe. Should be an interesting week and the game has really begun, navigating the waters becomes the task as the big fish begin to jockey for position and attack one another.

So just a quick blurb in here. Last night I was approached by Dustin about an alliance consisting of himself, Victoria, and me. This is the first pen to paper alliance I have agreed to. I've been building relationships at this point and people have been pussyfooting around the subject, but since Dustin came out and asked and I already have a great relationship with Vic it was a no-brainer. Dustin has a similar schedule to myself, which makes for easier socializing and gameplanning going forward and Vic is always up late. I foresee many a late night plan hatched on the horizon.

In other news Danielle is enamored and enthused to be playing with me. She gushed about me being her favorite and how shes so happy to be playing this game with me. I like Danielle and she may prove to be a valuable relationship to hold onto. She made me promise multiple times this week to evict Jen and not wanting to damage any potential relationship I agreed. But keeping Jen around may not be a bad idea as it creates a smoke shield for myself as Jen will target those who have wronged her and create some tension within the house. Even if it fails the paranoia it will cause will be an opportunity to drag someone threw the mud down the line by placing the blame on them.

Oh and Shane is keeping Jen as well so if she can flip a few more then she deserves to stay!
