Life and Survivor

I think life is a game of Survivor. Everyone is just trying to last another day, and ultimately get a lot of money, or fame, or love.

I think Survivor can also be applied to scenarios in life.

Are you more popular than someone else in your circle of friends? Think of you as the final 2, and everyone else as the jurors. Who wins? I think it's interesting to sit down with some names and figure out who could beat who in a jury vote of their friends. Sometimes it's not as simple as A > B > C > D > E > F. Someone might be able to beat someone else, but that lose to someone that the person they could beat could win against. Get it?

I also think friendships, alliances and rivalries are interesting. Friendships are formed with people that you mutually enjoy being with. Common ground, or similar beings are not necessary for a friendship. All you need in a friend is for them to be funny, or nice, or smart. Alliances are different, though. Alliances are created between people with a lot of common ground (same gender, same age, same background, same interests) but not between similar people. On the other hand, rivalries are created between very similar being. They rival each other in competition for the same role in a tribe.

Tribes are like classes. You might not like everyone in your class, and you may not have anything in common with them. But you're still always with them, and you're still fighting for the same thing.

I think it's easier to see dominance in a relationship if you look at it through Survivor than through real life. Could A convince B to vote for C instead of voting for D who E wants them to vote for? If so, they are most likely dominant in that relationship.

That's all for now. I just thought it was interesting.

Blindingly Obvious

So life is full of distractions. God puts them all there to confuse and conceal what it is that you really want. Why does He do that? I dunno. Ask Him. Maybe just to make things more exciting, you know, people have random epiphanies and then blog about it like internet losers.

The hot Asian ex-girlfriend. Yeah, she's hot. But she was a distraction.

The ex-best friend who I thought I might have had secret feelings for. No secret feelings, just a distraction.

The I-Called-It-Fucking-Ages-Ago long time friend that I've been thinking about a lot lately. Another distraction.

The sexy mama who I was gonna tap but then she went all Christian. Nothing real there, just a distraction.

The foreign girl that nobody understands who has a nice body. I thought there might be something there, but it's just like a platonic love, I think. Distraction.

All of these were hiding what should have been blindingly obvious.

:(

So it's been what like 12 hours? She's been gone half a day and already I'm in pieces. Brother help me.

Together

I want to get back together.

She wants to get back together.

I've grown up a lot.

She's grown up a lot.

We'd be a lot better together.

Too bad there's only 70 days left.

Guess who's back?

Sorry! It's been a while, hmm? Well I'm back now and ready to blog my cock off. Yeah, you read that right.

• OMG, I know I still haven't written about Grey's and B&S but I honestly can't be fucked. I WILL do it eventually but for now, I'll just say a few things.
• Grey's was alright. I'm starting to wonder where this show is going because.... Well it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
• Brothers and Sisters sucks. I'm probably not coming back for season 4.
• However, speaking of TV shows, let's talk about some good ones, eh? Remember True Blood? Yeah, that was awesome. Next Wednesday the last two eppies of season 1 are airing again and then OMG season 2 is airing. IMA SO EXCITED! TRUE BLOOD FUCKING RULES!
• Video games? I've played a lot of them. I have completed Lost Odyssey and Grandia 2 and am right at the end of both FFVIII and FFIX so if I were you (which I am) I'd be getting ready for another video game blog very soon. Or maybe I'll wait to finish Grandia, Tales of P and......
• TALES OF VESPERIA! Yes, it's actually out now. Has been for a fair while. But I haven't got it yet :( Don't ask me why because the only answer I've got for you is "I don't have enough money" and don't ask me what happened to the $110 I put aside for it becuase the only answer I have for you is "I dunno". But who cares! I've nearly got the money and next weekend I'm (with some luck) going to play the tight little ass off of that game. I've been waiting so long, I'm so excited :D
• Jed and Simon are coming over later today. We're gonna play some X-Men. And get fucking drunk :P
• No crushes, no likes, nothing.
• School sucks. Lots. I can't fucking stand it. Class sucks, lunch sucks. Everything sucks. ARG! Oh well. Not much longer.
• Survivor Samoa starts soon. Goood.
• I've been planning out my blogging system for next year. It's gonna be hot.

O-M-G Sozzies

I totally forgot to write about the finale of Grey's AND Brothers and Sisters. I'll do it soon. When I remember/have time. Maybe tomorrow? Or in the weekend.

Speaking of the weekend...

FORMAL! :D

Him, her or her???

Okay, so I know there's a good 80% chance that nothing will happen with any of them but... Hmmm... It COULD. But because of my time limitations it can only really happen with one. Because if I choose to go with her, then I can't go with her. And if choose to go with her, then I can hardly hook up with him. Not that I would hook up with him anyway. But the possibility goes away. I think I'm either gonna go with her or her. Or figure out someway to get both.
