More Funny Little Moments #2: Season 1, Episodes 13-24

Okie. In an effort to save myself a lot of time and frustration, I decided to only choose one additional funny moment, maybe two, per episode (unlike last time when two was the baseline and sometimes three popped up). ’Twas to middling success. Unintentionally and not, I left some better moments for this post; of course, the episodes that were stretched thin for their FFLM probably aren’t much better here. :”)

FFLMs: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 #16 #17 #18 #19 #20 #21 #22 #23 #24

Athens City Academy of the Performing Bards

Greeks dressing up in the traditional/stereotypical togas for the one and only time (I think) on this show. Everybody at and connected to the Academy dresses like so. …Then we have Gabrielle. X”D

A Fistful of Dinars

So, I imagine warlords as curious aliens who don’t understand human interaction. When Xena does it, it makes me chuckle (like when Gabrielle hugs her or cries, and Xe’s like, “???”). Petracles is similar.

Warrior... Princess

The fire-connected assassin being a slob. When Xena arrives at Princess Diana’s castle, it’s early morning. A killer almost immediately attacks her but has to run away for his life. He comes back late at night, just as dirty and burned as he was when he left. …Why? And not only that, his clothes that were on fire are perfectly intact while his forehead, which did not catch fire, is not. XD

Yes, it’s a bit morbid but this corpse’s sassy expression is definitely comical. heheheh

Mortal Beloved

Xena being RIDICULOUSLY unobservant. She looks straight ahead, doesn’t see anything out of the ordinary, and so turns her head to look elsewhere. Marcus crouches a whole six inches down and then spots Gabrielle in mortal danger. …Feet away from them. …With nothing to block their view between them and the wabbit. XD XD XD What even, Xena?

It’s more sad than funny when Xena stabs Marcus in the heart, but her line straight after that and Hades’s reaction push the moment over the edge. X’)

The Royal Couple of Thieves

Yay, subtext! Gabrielle somewhat subtly asks for Autolycus’s ring while he doesn’t notice. But someone behind him sure heard her widdle wabbit’s plea. And it affected her quite a bit. D’awwww! :”)

The Prodigal

I cannot BELIEVE I forgot to include this moment in the original post. It got me gooooood. Yes, the setup is a bit predictable, but… just… the townspeople’s hands are still up in the air like they’re riding a rollercoaster that disappointingly malfunctioned right before the big drop! XD The main lady’s faaaaace!!! She was even better than the roommate’s girlfriend in “Big Daddy.” XD XD XD (Video clip here in case the picture isn’t enough for you to know what I mean.)

Altared States

A hilariously adorable moment rather than straight comedy, from Xena of all people. The way she’s sitting, holding Gabrielle, and tilting her head to look at the wabbit reminds me so much of a little kid who’s wondering what’s wrong with her dolly. Hee!

What can I say? I couldn’t ignore Goofy Gabby completely, could I? And this scene isn’t often referenced or noted, so it fits! XP Just look at her blunt-stabbing whatever critter might be under the pillow. She reminds me of an outtake of Ren repeatedly “stabbing” a stunt guy with a toy sword (seen here if so desired). heheheh But part of the real gold here is how poor, weakened Anteus is just so confused. heheheheh

Ties That Bind

Xena being defiant because Gabrielle’s being weird. The wabbit screams for the warrior princess—who is already staring at her—to look at her, so Xena looks away, like, “Uhh, no!” kinda like this. heh

The Greater Good

Can’t leave Argo out either, can I? Poor pony. I’m beginning to understand her aversion to Gabrielle more and more. X)

Callisto

Gabrielle doubting Xena and then learning an interesting lesson that will only prove more true as time goes on.

Death Mask

Our wee widdle wabbit being rightfully proud of herself after besting an enemy with Xena as the audience for the first time. Xena… is afeared. XD

GabbyWabbit and friggin Toris forgetting what franchise they’re a part of. Yes, I’m way late for both “holidays.” Whoops.

Is There a Doctor in the House?

In addition to not being able to believe what Xena did to her in the main post, Gabrielle is now stunned by the words coming out of Xena’s mouth. I. …Screw around. heh (Though I totally remember the quote in a different accent and so had to rewatch the clip a few times to relearn it. You can watch it too, here.)

Hm, this was more fun and easier than last time. Woohoo!

But, alas, it is the end of an era. No more FFLMs or MFLMs for the foreseeable future. And absolutely no one has commented on my posts in several weeks, so I don’t even know what you guys think of my work or want. *sad* Ah well.

The one suggestion I got elsewhere for my hundredth (next) post was to make cracksubs for “Lyre, Lyre, Hearts on Fire.” I think that’s a good idea because I’ve been wanting to do another cracksubs post for a while now and don’t like LLHoF. ’Twas a similar case with the last one I did but that led to a deep, abiding love of “Them Bones Them Bones.” heheheh

If anyone has any other ideas, though, then please let me know. Thanks!

Random sims q&a

Thank you so much @keibea for tagging me 🥰! This one is kinda long so I’m putting it under a read more. I got excited lol

1. How did you get into the sims series? Have you played all, just one…etc.

I asked for the sims 3 for my birthday when I was around 14 I think? So that’s like 9 years oh my god I’m so old lol. I first started out on a mac so it was absolute hell trying to get it to work on my computer, but as soon as I started playing it I was completely obsessed with it. I’ve played the sims 4 too but I got so bored of it so quickly and I was only playing the sims 4 for the CAS at that point. I’ve always wanted to play the sims 2 because it look so fun but I’ve never been able to get it to work 😭.

2. What is your favourite sims game and why? If you can’t pick one, feel free to choose several!

Definitely the sims 3 because it’s a lot easier for me to do storytelling in the sims 3. I feel like the sims 3 has more substance if that makes sense? The amount of content you get for only having like 2 or 3 expansion packs made me love the game. Honestly, I wish I could enjoy the sims 4 because it runs so smoothly on my computer but I just can’tttt.

3. What are the most hours you have played a sims game (if you play through origin, you can check the number of hours played there! Don’t worry, all of ours are pretty big I think hehehe)

5657 hours...that’s a lot but I promise I’m productive sometimes 😅

4. What is the weirdest moment you’ve ever had in your sims game? Or if you have more than one, feel free to write a few stories!

Hmmm the weirdest moment I had was when one of my sims went on vacation and the teenage daughter just died randomly while she was driving to school. I still have no idea why tf that happened but I just like to say that she got into a car accident. Then my game went back to the main menu because she died and her parents went on vacation so there was no one in the household anymore lol. Good times.

5. Favourite sim and/or sims family? Why are they your favourite?

Picking a favorite sim is like picking my favorite child but I would have to say right now it’s Keegan. He’s evil and a criminal so he’s constantly causing unnecessary drama and I love drama in my game.

My favorite sims family that I’ve ever played would have to be the Gorski family (Callum, Brittany, and their 5 kids). The parents are both dead now but they were such a fun family to play. Currently, my favorite sims family currently is probably the Kwinn household (Isla and Felix). They just had another set of twins recently. I usually don’t like playing households with a ton of kids because it stresses me out but they make such cute kids. Isla is mean spirited too so playing her is really...interesting lol.

6. Favourite thing and/or things to do in the sims? (Kill sims, have loads of babies and then regret life, make your sims woohoo a bunch, build homes, play around in CAS etc.)

I consider myself a family gameplay kind if simmer so I love just playing different kinds of families and creating drama. I’ve turned it into a really loose legacy type thing. The only thing is that I get so attached to all of the kids and then I want to play them all separately which makes me hate myself later. I can’t build for shit so I stick to decorating because it brings out my inner HGTV lmao. CAS is fun for me too because I’m good at it but I’m so friggin picky I end up in CAS for like 3 hours.

That was fun 😊. Ok I don’t know who to tag so if you’re seeing this right now I guess I tag you

Greetings Everyone. My Surgy Buddies.

If you live on the East Coast. (Grab some fellow patients, break out of the hospital & make some snow angels). Be sure to close the back of your gown! Brrr..

How are you? With all my heart I hope, doing well. As if covid wasn't enough it's got variants. Please wear the friggin' mask. Look it's either the mask or sickness & possible death. Spreading it to your loved ones & friends. Political? Seriously? Life & Death..how about that? Humanity, common sense, unselfishness?

At the moment I am over the moon. Why? Because there's this glorious white stuff falling from the sky! From Michigan, it's more peaceful. Just wonderful quiet. A Noreastern storm. Woohoo! I'm looking out the window at it fall. It's fantastic. Another way God/The Goddess says "stop stressing & have some fun"!

Plus, it's giving me more ideas for the new story.

Ok. So I had the vertigo tests.

Absolutely no pain..very good. But staring at a red dot on the wall & then following the little green light, with just your eyes...I felt like a kitten. I wanted to slam my hand on it everytime it came up.

A little nauseous & headache after but no biggie. I was supposed to get my results today. SNOW DAY!! Hehe.

My phone? Ahh yes. My phone. Who the hell switches a phone over when the new SD Card isn't installed?? OFFS!!

That's what happened.

Met a good looking service guy. (For all you straight ladies out there or my gay bois) great smile. I had him laughing at my frustration. (No, I wasn't flirting with the man, ("Give me one woman, or give me death!)

Anyway, He fixed the SD problem so the memory has shifted. BUT. I have to go through every music file & make sure the files work. I'm currently on the C's. JM&J.

It might just be me but I think I heard my phone make a sigh of relief. So, so far so good.

What is keeping you busy & happy now?

It's amazing to see what people are doing with their time.

I just started something called "diamond painting". It kind of reminds me of stained glass windows. I don't have my workshop here to do those. So improvising is what I'm doing. What?..wait I haven't started yet. I took the kit apart, saw all the teenie gems & thought "ut oh". I'm going to need patience for this. They're so tiny. But it's something new & I can't wait to start. I like "details" in things. I ordered a special light box. The kind tattoo artists use so I can see the patterns better. They send me these little projects to start. Hell I want to do bigger things already.

Photos, portraits etc.

I never was the type to do this baby step stuff. But in recent years..I'm trying. I'm TRYING Dammnit!

So many things to learn & keep occupied. I'm back to my Russian language studies. Starting the new story. My roommate wants to paint & fix up the house. She wants my input on color schemes, furniture etc. Considering my bedroom IS the living room I suggested a cranberry/light gray at first. Then I loved the idea of a zen green feeling. She hates that idea. She hates green. How can you hate green?! Seriously.

I gained 2 lbs back over the Holidays. (Damn Candy, Cookies, Pies, Halva, Gaz) "Halva" is a fudge like sweet, made from sesame seeds. "Gaz" is a Turkish nougat with almonds and pistachios. Very chewy but yum.

I have no self control when it comes to the Holidays. Zip. But I've already lost 1lb & back to my eating routine. I've passed the gym so many times & seen cars in the parking lot. (Sigh) I want to go back so badly. But it isn't worth testing or risking my life.

You can't wear a mask in the pool area.

I once thought I'd try. But the idea quickly shifted at the thought of drowning wearing a mask in the pool. How uncouth.

I believe I'm busier now than before covid. How about you? OMG! I got the video game "Valhalla".

Completely hooked! I love the warning at the beginning It warns of sexual orientation in the game. Haven't come across it yet. But really. There's so much to do. Solving puzzles too. I love games that emerse you in the environment. You're free to explore. I have a bad ass female viking. It's not all beat the crap out of stuff either. Maybe all the lesbians are in Asgard. LOL

I have often been called "Dory". Focusing on one thing then someone says "Hey look, something shiny"! "Where"? LOL

I've been pulled back to Facebook lately. Ugh! Thinking of deleting my contacts & starting from scratch. It's like cramming 20 blocks of people in your phone. And everyones asking questions at the same time. Then the messenger pops up. Anti-social I am..yes, yes. For now. Look, they say it takes 10,000 hours to master the Russian language. I have maybe half a days worth. Tell me what you're up to. I'd love to know.

If you're in the Hospital, (not covid related) you must have a coloring book & crayons!

Those fighting covid, keep up the fight, please. I find it hard to pray because of such loss. So I'm screaming instead.

Stay safe, be well. And may God hold you in the palm of his hands.

Always,

Chris

Ep. 10: “Not all hero’s wear capes, some wear pajama pants and robes!” - Cody

Amy A

Everything worked out PERFECTLY. Ugh I love a good plan. Hopefully my new core 4 plus Najwah stays in power.

Olivia A

WHAT THE HELL!! Grae was my closest ally this is so disappointing. On top of everything, Aimee didn’t even vote with us!! So we’re at a 6-4 disadvantage. I don’t think anyone wants to work with us. Our last hope is finding and buying the idols and utilizing Kalle’s fake idol. I hate this.

Pedro A

woke up on the bottom...and thinking i was going home...guess what...im still here ahahahhahahahahahahhhaahhah...yall though...kalle is my guardian angel ...like if it wasnt for that girlll i would be out

ben kessler

Wednesday, July 29th, immediately after the tribal grae got voted out: heheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh

Aimee

I had a long day and now Grae is gone. I’m honestly crying. Jay asked if I was okay and the river of tears just started flowing. I only knew Grae for a short while and really wanted to get to know them more. They brought such a beautiful, fun and loving energy to this game. Grae, I really am going to miss you. I’m just gonna go hug a stuff animal.

Maddison

I knew Pedro was going to play an idol. He didn’t do one single puzzle, it’s obvious he felt safe. Snakes are slithering.

Kalle N.

I truly cannot believe that our plan worked but it did and my splitting headache is totally worth it. I really feel like I deserve an Emmy or an Oscar for my performance with Maddison and Olivia after tribal but it's fine. I have absolutely no idea what comes next but boi will it be messy. I'm so sorry it had to be Grae but I didn't know what else to do. Also I hate that I'm working with Ben but don't worry I will use my chaotic energy to go against him eventually. I will now be erasing myself from the narrative and taking a break for several hours. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Najwah

OK last night's tribal was wiiiiiiild af. I think the funniest part is that this all started with me planting a seed. I told Amy L that she is at the bottom of their alliance and that I was open to working with her to get Maddison out. She spilled all the tea about Maddison having two idols and that she's been wanting to gether out for a while bc she says the same thing to everyone lmao. I think the thing that pissed Amy off is that she told her "I feel closest to you" anyway, Amy didn't respond to me immediately so I thought she wasn't on board at first so I told Cody I'd work with him and that I have the idol from Alan. Ffs. Wrong move. Cody just trust other people wit information and it's really annoying. While I love Sarah, I can't really trust her bc she's really close to Ben and Aimee - who I do not trust. Well, Aimee I am not sure about. I guess I only don't trust her because of her close Ness to Ben and Ben blatantly lies. Anyway. So Amy told me that their alliance is still trying to vote Pedro which is perfect for us coz we can still stay Hanúha strong. So at this point I realise I wouldn't have to play my super idol and Cody wouldn't have to play his extra vote. Anyway. Amy tells Kalle about the plan to get Maddison out. I send Amy a long ass message Pedro sent Zack that Zack sent me. She tells her group that Zack had sent it to her, to solidify their vote for Pedro. And then She, Kalle, Ben and Pedro form an alliance and they pull off one of the most epic blindsided. I mean, wow. Amy told me beforehand so I saw it coming and I told Cody about it too. Lmao but Ccody just can't be low key he wrote something about Maddison's two idols and he asked in the Old Hanúha group whether anyone had known about the plan lmao obviously Ben was like "no" and wtf. Ben's facial expressions at tribal was hilarious especially because I know he careful conducted this whole genius plan. I mean people still think their alliances are with their alliances and that no one has moles but there are so many layers right now and there are a few moles.

Cody just needs to shut up. Be like Ben who claims that everything he is doing is for James lmao but is in a secret alliance with the person that got James out lmao love it. I love that I can see through some of the BS right now. The only person that could fuck up my game is Cody atm but I am taking a leap of faith and trusting him. He needs to trust me too. I kept telling him to just trust the process last night and he kept freaking out. I think the realisation of Ben being a BSer got to him a bit. Also, he toldd Sarah that I spoke to Amy? Like I'm so fkn mad. Can he just shut up? Ugh that's my biggest problem right now. I LOVE CODY OMG WE SPEAK ON VIDEO CALL LIKE EVERY HOUR LMAO but I'm just scared that he is too trusting with certain people, especially at this point in the game. He also doesn't know how to be low key lmao which is kinda funny. Also, Pedro. Wev ebeen talking a lot. Pedro's friggin Greek they're speech and the vote with Grae that ended with "sorry not sorry" just. Lmao. I wish I watched this on TV. I'm sad that it happened via skype😂😂 also I am not sure how this VL confession thing works. Did I say the right things? Yall probably have all the tea already. I'm a little sad that Grae went home. She seemed genuinely nice but she was our only option because Olivia won immunity. Maddison also made us all uncomfortable coz she took the time to chat to none of the new people at merge. Like? Olivia and Grae made the effort. She just seems too safe. Too comfortable. She isn't even participating in this challenge. Is she THAT comfortable or just pissed? Who knows? Never keep to yourself like that. It makes people suspicious. Pedro does seem very smart and manipulative though and I will be weary of him. Let's go idol hunting then woohoo.

Najwah

Also I keep laughing at how ridiculously bad I am at answering questions at tribal. Omg. Embarrassing. I need like a few minutes to THINK. I always look back, and wonder why tf I said what I said. In retrospect, I'd answer last night's question with "don't we all feel like we are on the outs?" ugh. I'm so bad at it. I realise it makes me look dumb and perhaps that's not a bad thing. I don't mind looking dumb tbh. Lmao.

Cody A.

I haven’t done one of these written confessions in a while! Obviously things have been absolutely fish crazy. Idek what fish crazy means but it just came to me. And on the topic of fish... I’m pretty positive I called Maola a bunch of sharks at tribal council.

If it wasn’t for Naj last night, I would have been completely blonde sided by the vote. I had no idea what was going on, I thought the plan was to put votes on Pedro and Madison and one of them would go.

About 20 minutes before tribal naj called me and said she did not want me to feel left out of the events that were about to occur. She told me the real plan of Pedro and Madison both playing idols and Pedro casting the sole vote on Grae. Not going to lie I was scared shitless... I was so close to writing kalles name as a safety net for myself. What if Pedro would’ve cast the sole vote against me? At the very least it would’ve been a 1-1 tie between myself and kalle. I just didn’t want to be Denise’d out of this game.

Ultimately I trusted my gut which told me to just trust naj. If I had got fucked over last night, at least I would’ve went out trusting the right people. Naj also told me about a 4 person alliance between Amy, Pedro, Kalle, and BEN... My Ben!!! Smh. So moving forward I have to be very careful with the information I give and receive from Ben which sucks because I thought I could trust him more :/ Basically THANK THE LORDT FOR NAJ. Not all hero’s wear capes, some wear pajama pants and robes!

Kalle N.

So this entire time that I've worked with Ben, he always dictates our moves and every single thing I can or can't say to certain people. If I suggest something he immediately turns it down and will only do what he wants. Men are the worst. Anyways, a little bit ago after he told me what our next move is and didn't let me have any input, he suddenly said "Actually what do you want to do? You go ahead and tell me what you want". That is EXTREMELY sus and makes me think that he's just trying to make me feel better while he's secretly plotting against me. I could go along with it and just let him vote me out bc honestly I'm exhausted, or I could reveal all of the insanity that happened in the last vote to my other alliance and then expose him to his own tribe for working with me. Which would get him voted out. But that's a lot of work so I'm ngl I'm leaning towards just getting voted out myself

Aimee

I’m so glad I’m not actually on an island playing real life Survivor right now. I would constantly be in the ocean or somewhere in the bushes bawling my eyes out. And then coming back to camp like, “oh hey guys! No puffy face here, I promise! Yeah everything is peaches! Hanuha strong! Those red eyes are just from too much sun, I think I need to lay down in the shade” I’m not crying over Grae and how shitty I was to Maddison or anything, JayKay I totally am! I hate that I didn’t tell Maddison the votes were going her way. I’m not even sure why I didn’t. I’m so sorry Maddison, I really hope we can rebuild our connection and work together again. I just feel like barf and am exhausted. Trying to play this game with a full time job is tough. I hope I have the emotional fortitude to pick myself back up and put on a poker face. The last thing I need is anyone figuring out my tells and knowing what I am up to. I want to work with Ben and Maddison the most at this point. I hope I can make that work out.

Pedro A

I'm honestly scared...for the next tribal ...I feel like everyone is gonna go after me...cause apparently I'm the villan lol

Kalle N.

It's a little hard to focus on the game at the current moment bc an exciting/terrifying development may be occurring in my life in the next couple of days. I'm having a prolonged anxiety attack. We were going to try to take out Aimee so F's in the chat to pay respect. Don't know what I'll be doing. Need to go cry in the shower now.

Najwah

Sigh. It's been a very long day. I really played hard at this challenge, knowing I have a 15% DA. Do I think it's insane that someone came into the game when half the players had already been eliminated and over half the 24 hours had already passed only to NOT even try to eliminate the one person not in our alliance in there, then pretend it's all kumbaya and eliminate our alliance (who we said we won't eliminate, we made a pact?) one by one? I mean yeah it's damn insane. And not that I'm a sore loser or anything, but I wish she'd have been there when things were actually heated and when everyone else was putting in the hard work. This isn't endurance in my opinion. This is coming into a game late and reaping all the benefits. However, well done on her tactic. Love it honestly. I think she made good moves and knew when to strike and for that, of course I think she's a fkn Queen. Even though I felt as though I was so close to winning immunity, even though I tried really hard. At the end of the day, it's how you outwit and outlast your opponents. Next time I'll be sure to not read challenge rules at 4am and then try to actually understand the game properly and how I too, can make things easier for myself dammit coz I think i keep making everything so hard for myself in this game ugh. I just need one fucking WIN. Goodness I am playing so hard. Wow. Wow. Starting to wonder what panderosa is like lol must be fun. Anyway I need to sleep coz the sleep deprivation is making me feel sick af and making me paranoid about having corona.

Aimee

https://lovelyygifss.tumblr.com/post/618070044309700608/deserved-more-than-0-votesssss QUEEN SARAH!!!!!!! 👑 ♥️ This challenge proved to me so much that Sarah is in it for the long haul with me! I could tell she was never guessing for my word and I wasn’t trying hers. Team Casanova is once again coming up equal on all challenges and I love to see it! I can’t believe I got to have my Michele moment and come from behind after being hours behind in the challenge and eliminating the last three people in a row to kick down that damn puzzle! I am on such an adrenaline rush!!! After the low lows of last night this rollercoaster of game really proves you can get right back up and thrive! Haha it was so hard saying my word since I’m a pretty positive person and my word was “not.” Sarah and I never gave up in this challenge and we ended up being the last two remaining!!! I also really bonded with Najwah and Cody. That challenge was so much more than immunity it was also a great opportunity to bond with cast mates and I really capitalized on that. Even during this challenge I patched things up with Maddison too and it seems like we are back to trying to make things work with us. I feel like Grae would want that for both of us too. I went from crying my eyes out the night before to total redemption today. It was on my bucketlist to win an individual immunity and I did it on something I never knew I could win. I’m just so amped and trying to calm myself down. I’m just https://youtu.be/erG5rgNYSd Wheeler island in the sun The song I was listening to when I won immunity. 🎃🐻🌈🍑❤️💜🧡💛

Sarah

There have been so many things that have happened today... This morning Ben, Naj, and I gave Cody enough coins for him to hopefully get the idol. Cody showed me what was in the store and how there were two necklaces for $20 which was odd. He got one of the necklaces and we thought it was a real idol. Tbh we still don’t know if it’s a real idol. Cody sent a fake message to Ben and I showing that it was a “fake idol” (he got the message from Naj when she had found a fake idol). We thought it was real but when Cody found it it said “what seems to be an idol,” which makes me think someone planted a fake idol there and he did get a fake idol. I will send in more soon...

Najwah

I thought that making it to merge would be enough for me lol but somehow my goal is just to get further now. I'm at a crossroads though bc there is no one I really want to get out or back stab or whatever. Cody found a supposed idol yesterday. I told him just to tell Ben it's a fake idol and if Ben wanted to use the fake idol, he could give him my idol. Thing is, Cody is paranoid about it being a real idol or fake one that he found. I think he should just chill about it and it'll be fine. I just want Cody to be calm, I feel like without Zack's constant talking and scheming, the silence is getting to him a bit. But I quite like the silence. He thinks it means something is happening or people are plotting against him. I just think it means people are trying to sleep lol. I mean even if he was a target, he still has an idol. Ugh. Anyway it's actually a religious holiday for me today and tomorrow. So I will spend time with my husband and perhaps go to a fancy restaurant or something. I haven't felt fancy in so long and I realised everyone in this game has really seen gross, messy haired, late night Najwah lmao like I usually don't even let my friends see me this way

Najwah

It's silly trying to keep wondering who tf I can trust. I need to just go with my gut. There are a few people in the game I really like. Cody, Sarah, Amy, Pedro and Aimee. I don't know the rest and I don't trust Ben. I don't know what he's up to. He was supposed to be in some secret alliance with Kalle and Amy but he told Cody and I about them so what's really happening? Who knows? Also he keeps asking me what do I want to do who do I want out? Lmaoooooooooo.

Najwah

We had a lot of deep, crazy conversations yesterday and one of my favs were actually drooling over survivor players and realising how gay everyone is lmao. I love that. As someone who has struggled with my sexuality for most of my life, thinking I'm gay for a long time and then finding myself attracted to boys too was bizarre in the early 2000s. and being told being bisexual is a "phase" or "confusion" or that it was bc I went to an all girls school (shout out to Rhenish girls High), being in a space where everyone is really open and accepting of all this is amazing. I'm happy i live in a country where gay marriages have been legal since 2006 and ironically being trans or gay is not that big of a deal here as it is in countries way more progressive than ours. I still struggle with non binary pronouns but I am learning thanks to this game. I feel free just being who I am, whoever tf that is in this game. And for that I'm obviously very thankful. Today, I'm married to a man who appreciates my sexuality and is open to me exploring it even more. Its been a long journey and it makes me extremely happy seeing people in this game, so much younger than me and so much more sure of themselves. I'm happy that they will be spared a lot of pain and confusion. I love GenZ. I love that they just are who they are and there is no pretense. This Is so important and a luxury previous generations could only dream. Of.

From two nights ago.... https://youtu.be/uebz8rVKNbg https://youtu.be/xQyiuiGeEpo

Olivia A

Our plan for this vote feels really ambitious but I think it’s gonna work. We’ll likely get the numbers back :)

Maddison

I’m going to have to use my advantage tonight to save my ass. Guess that’s what advantages are for, eh?

Ben Kessler

I am trying to vote kalle out. If it works, my name will be out there but it may pay off. Maddison and Olivia are definitely going for me which is fine. I need to tell Pedro 5 minutes before tribal to trust me.

Kalle N.

Maddison will use her advantage, Olivia will play my idol, the only votes that will count will be the votes we put on Cody. That's it that's the plan

Cody A.

Pedro A

Okay so me olivia kalle and amy are voting cody...plus maddison will leave tribal......and olivia will play the idol kalle has....i swear if olivia votes for me...and i go HOMEEE....IM DONEE...i have a bad feeling about this tribal...im trusting the devil lol

Olivia A

Kalle has been playing double agent this whole time and told everyone about the safety without power advantage grrr what a mess

Maddison

I’m making a big move tonight and I’m not sure yet how it will pan out.

Olivia A

Initially we were going to all (Maddison, Cody, Najwah, Sarah, Aimee, and I) vote Ben but we are going to switch it to Kalle because Aimee and Ben are kinda close and we want to keep Aimee as a number. I’m happy to see Kalle go after how much she has lied to Maddison and me.

Olivia A

I am SO nervous for this vote. Here is the whole plan: Maddison will play her safety without power advantage and I will play the (fake) idol that Kalle gave me. This is just so that Kalle doesn’t get tipped off that we know about her lies. Kalle believes Maddison, Amy, and I are voting for Cody and think that she is voting for him as well. In reality, Cody, Aimee, Sarah, Najwah, Amy, and I are voting for Ben. We suspect Ben, Kalle, and maybe Pedro are voting for me and expect it to work because of the fake idol that Kalle planted. I really hope this works because if people are lying then I’m definitely going home.

Ben Kessler

Dearest confessional, My life is out on the line. I am in a very vulnerable position right now and if I stay in the game tonight damage control must be done. There are many complicated plans and I work best under chaos, so these votes are hopefully good for my game overall. If kalle actually gives her idol to Olivia and we vote out kalle, maddison and Olivia and Amy will be pissed, but they do not have the numbers. I would need to do some more work to make sure I get the info that kalle is currently giving me, but it's not as bad as going farther with kalle and then losing later on. I now need to video call kalle goodbye.

I know how to take score now using our weird format scoreboard 😂 My previous teammates would be so proud of me lol. 👏👏👏 About friggin time! Actually, I got the hang of it like 2-3 weeks ago, but yay. We won the coin toss and played with red stones. We blanked the first end and the force was strong on both sides - we were Even Steven at 1-1 after 3 ends, then we gave up a 4-ender in the 4th 💩The game was essentially over by then BUT we actually managed to score 2 in the 6th end, but ran out of time and lost 7-3. That 4-ender was actually almost a 5-ender; we got lucky. But it was a great game despite my usual inability NOT to put weight on the rocks and difficulty reading the ice. The vibe of our team is fun. I’m totally third-wheeling, and the girls are feisty so we question and defy skipper, but I love our on ice celebrations and begging of rocks to stay in the house 😂 Goal is to at least win one game 🙏🤞 I also noticed I was a little more comfortable with my wicked fast sliding shoe compared to last week. I still feel like I’m gonna die on the ice, but I only screamed/yelped once! Woohoo for progress. I hope I can learn to slide around the ice in general and then follow a rock after I’ve released it in case I want to explore mixed doubles #curling in the future. 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 #fangirlcurling #teamfatass #loseanolsentwin #sdccstarvationdiet #fatgirllearnstocurl #growththegame #growthesport #wintersports #sports #curlsandiego #curlingrocks #hurryhard #ilovecurling #itsalotharderthanitlooks #niklasalinaandoskar #SWEorSUI #SWEandSUI #TeamWorld #thirdwheel #isweptwithyourgirlfriend #ioverswept #HardlineNation 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 (at Curl San Diego) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvrXMwChLUp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vrjyb4zjd4c6

Well, this has been a shitty year… so I guess that means it’s time for my annual RESOLUTION post!

What the fuck even WAS 2018?!?!

Because it felt like a dumpster fire of a year. While 2017 felt like a transition year, this past year felt like everything was just closing in on me from all directions and every once in a while I would get a bright spot, but then eventually I wound up back on the same monotonous path.

Don’t get me wrong, there were some major highlights – I started training with Peter, I got to go to my first Broadway opening night, I finished that fucking thesis, I graduated with a masters (that sounds so impressive, but like tbh it was just another very expensive year of school), I went to the Tony Awards with my best friend and cried my eyes out when I got to see Lindsay win IN PERSON, Iris FINALLY got married, I moved closer to NYC which made seeing shows a hell of a lot easier, I went on my first voluntary hike, I travelled to see friends in shows, I was in a show again, I read a HELL of a lot of books, and so much more.

On the other hand, my anxiety manifested itself into depression and I spent weeks on end in the house with zero purpose of doing anything, I can’t even get myself to apply to a job anymore, I had to leave my job and my apartment and put all my stuff in storage, I’ve been unemployed for 6 months, I lost a very good friend (miss you, Ben <3 ), this is the loneliest I’ve ever felt in my life (and I don’t even mean just relationship-wise, but I barely get to see my friends anymore), and most days I don’t even leave the house unless I have a library book to pick up. But I want to put a period on this shitty year and start fresh. I honestly do. And I want to do that through small, manageable goals throughout the year.

Soooooo….resolution time?

-Okay, new first thing: GO TO A DAMN THERAPIST AND GET DIAGNOSED. My anxiety was there the last few years, but ever since I moved home, it’s turned into depression and it’s crippling. I can’t apply for jobs. I don’t leave the house unless there’s a reason. Panic attacks aren’t even the issue at this point since the day-to-day problems are making a bigger impact. I truly need to do something about this ASAP because I don’t know how I’ll get through life if don’t even have the oomph to get out of bed, let alone start a career.

-Well, obviously #2 is the same thing that I’ve wanted every year for about half my life…a boyfriend. But not in the superficial way. I really just don’t want to be lonely anymore. I want to find a partner who can connect with me and wants something more than friendship for ONCE in my damn life. Someone to confide in and be close with. A true partner. WHY is that so hard for me? There has to be a better way to find someone than online dating.

-The way to get a boyfriend? Oh yeah, that would be a friggin DATE. It feels totally pathetic to be 25 and never have gone on a date. Maybe moving out on my own will help with that? Maybe? A girl can dream…

-I was in Parade this year, but honestly, my heart wasn’t in it at all. I don’t know why I kind of floated through the show like it was nothing, but it was just a reason to leave the house each day. I made friends, but I didn’t get especially close to anyone…it was just so weird. If I do another show this year (which is a goal in and of itself, of course), I want to appreciate it. I want to love my art again.

-With that, I want to create more art this year. A cabaret, perhaps? Be in a show? Workshop something with friends? Start a podcast? I want to do something new that keeps me fulfilled creatively while also helping me in my career.

-Hopefully go back to AT again? I told myself I was waiting until I moved to NYC to go back, but I really do miss it…

-Get back to training with Peter! I miss him and even though working out was hard, I was so glad to be doing something positive for myself. I want to get back to it and find a routine that works.

-I lost a few pounds this year, woohoo! Let’s lose some more so can feel healthier and get back to dancing!

-Keep that website updated and looking fab ;)

-Find. A. Job. Find a job. FIND A FRIGGIN JOB.

-Move out. I can’t stay here and I’m miserable not having my own space. I know people say there’s no shame in moving home, and there really shouldn’t be, but I need to get out of here. It’s only making my anxiety worse…

-I read over 50 books this year and I’m so proud! So now I want to change it up a bit: 5 books a month. That’s a little more than 1 a week (60 for the year) and I think it’s pretty manageable! 5 a month. I can do that!

-Well I’m definitely not going to do 19 things from my bucket list (seeing as I only did 6 this year and 5 the year before), but let’s compromise and say 10 things. #manageyourexpectations

-KNIT A SCARF. Just do it, Jackie.

-Play one of my dream roles? Maybe?

-Maybe start trying to learn piano again?

-Travel! Go on a trip. Whether it’s a long road trip to DC or a plane to LA, I want to go somewhere outside of my usual NYC/NJ/Philly trips.

-Be better about following up on emails. I know they are a big part of my anxiety, but I just can’t leave them for weeks at a time…

-Keep the year’s motto: 2019: LOW STAKES, HIGH FUN!

And last but not least…. 

-Finish at least 10 things on this list. There’s 20 on this list including this. I know I’ll never finish my whole list, but I did 10 last year and felt amazing because at least I accomplished something. Let’s keep that same feeling going, please! And if I do more than 10, I’ll be even more excited!
