Father, I Shall Do No Wrong

[Brandon Johnson]

Candice has been showing her true colors in the general board... there is nothing nice about her. It is all an act and I have no desire working with her in the future. Her mocking the fact that Brandon played with his heart really hurt me. She was ripping when she ripped Brandon...

I am Brandon. Brandon makes up me. I am him. I play like him, I think like him. So when she attacked him... she attacked me.

ROUND 8: Alone with my Savior

It has been a rough few days for myself and I am hoping it will get better. So despite my faith that Judd would survive without my idol he did not and I feel incredibly sad. I hope when this is all said and done he will forgive me for being naive.

To top things off Mike and Candice, my two biggest enemies, have decided to team up against me and mock the way I play the game. I have feeling that I am no longer wanted in this game and It is incredibly hurtful. Candice apologized somehwat and I accept that but Mike was hurtful. I knew Mike was a snake but now he is a jerk snake. No one likes a jerk snake.

This makes me want to win this challenge even more now because I know that if we win he will probably get voted off. However with my busy day tomorrow I will probably have to sit out.

The only three friends I feel like I have left in this game are Elyse, Christa, and John. None of them have been on as of late making me very lonely and feeling very alone in this game. While I do like Alex as well him and Mike are best friends which is kind of frusterating.

Yes I have the idol and I just hope God can tell me when to use it so I can save myself. I need to re-dedicate myself to this game and get really to fight for what I believe in.

Dear Father,

Thank you for this day and please help me stay focused in my goal in my mind. Winning the game for my Savior...


Amen

ROUND 9: Burn Baby Burn

We have merged into one tribe. The exciting part of God's plan is about to unfold. There is no hiding behind tribal immunity anymore for Brandon Hantz. I think I am in a pretty good position because Mahtava is still a strong tribe and I have a secret weapon.

The immunity idol is something that I don't think anyone thinks I have and I think people have forgot about it. I have almost forgot about it. Hopefully I don't have to use it for a while and hopefully the respect im giving peolpe letting them know they are leaving will make them want to tell me in return.

Right now my alliance is with Mahtava and Christa. I consider Christa always having been Mahtava and trust her a lot more than Mike and Alex. I think the whole immunity challenge thing made me and Mike like eachother a little more and hopefully he won't stab me in the back.

I think if anyone is going to leave from Mahtava I have a target in my back because Ibrehem has portrayed me as the leader of the alliance. While this is not the case I think people might vote me off because of it.

I will continue more at a later date... Maybe post some of the brief conversations I had.

Dear Father,

Thank you for allowing me to make the merge. Please keep Mahtava strong and make sure I am strong with my loyalty and not one who will turn to backstabbing to win this game.

Amen

I'm having a really hard time right now. I am a human being and Ibrehem's comments really hurt me. I have never done anything to indicate I was the head of anything and painting me like a false witness is very hurtful. I love everyone that is left in the game and would do nothing to backstab them.

I don't expect to win. I will not compromise my gamestyle to win this game. My one and only lie this entire game will be not telling anyone about the idol. Both Skupin and Alex asked me about the idol today and I had to fight my inner spirit to say no. I feel like lying about the idol is best for everyone in the game. Maybe I will tell people later on but I feel that would lose my credibility.

I am struggling with this idol thing as well as Ibrehem's comments. Maybe he is right... Am i just lying to myself about playing an honest game. So many thoughts are swirling through my head.

[Brandon Johnson]

Its hard to see that my tribe isn't coming to bat for me like they did for John. I guess they expect I can hold my own. But I am not sure if I can.

ROUND 10: The Great Pagonging

So i've been pretty bi-polar with how I feel about people and now I have decided that I love everyone left. They are all cool and unique in there own way and tribal council sucks because I do not want to vote for any them. But this is a game that I hope to win and win it with honor and integrity.

Right now I have actually talked a lot to Candice. Even after I told her straight up that Mahtava was sticking together she still talked to me showing me maybe she isn't a she-devil. I told her that she was safe this round and I hope to keep that promise.

As for the rest of the tribe. I trust Alex a lot more than I did and am not convinced him and Mike are a duo anymore. Mike is still a snake but he is still a likable guy. I am happy he does not get a vote in this tribal council.

Elyse and Christa are still my girls (Don't worry Candace your my real girl). Elyse has been distant but I hope she still has my back (more on that later). John is still my little buddy. I have no idea what I'm going to do if we make the final four. So do not ask me...

I got a chest in the auction I have no idea what could be in it. I am guessing the key is in Elyse's possession because she was the only other person to get something besides Mikayla's sausage and Candice's Hook.

Hopefully we can use the item inside for the good of the alliance and would be willing to give her the box if she wants it. I would also be loyal to her if she gives me the key.

Dear God,

Happy birthday to your Son! Thank you for a successful auction and continuing to bless the Mahtava tribe. I give you all the glory.

Amen
