Thoughts on execution #8

This is unbelievable!!!! I've made it to the final round!!!!!

This game started out with a large amount of people who were very active, and that always led me to think that it'd be really hard for me to make it far, because I felt like there were so many people who would be impossible to beat. So, to be here at the very end, I just... wow. I actually still can't believe it, and the fact that I'm currently out of town is making this all seem like it's not really happening, and it's probably going to take a while for it to set in. Congratulations, Brian - as I had said in my last few confessionals, making it to the final 4 is a milestone, so the fact that you succeeded in getting to that point is definitely impressive. Following up on something Elise said in her last confessional, I really have a lot of appreciation for the bond that me, her and Blaise have made as a group of three. It's funny how several rounds ago, when there were 8 of us left I think, the three of us sort of talked about how we felt left out in a group of quick-witted loud people (no offense to any executed players, because I actually enjoyed that for the most part, and laughed a lot), and the three of us talked about how we felt like we couldn't keep up with anyone else. So, the fact that we've all made it to this point is simply amazing!

I can say with all honesty that you two have been my best friends in this game, all the way since the beginning of the game (Breaux also became a VERY good friend of mine during the last two or three rounds he was here). There were times that I was frustrated with certain things that you both know about and agreed with me on, and it was always the case that talking to one of you made me feel better. Even though the challenges for the final round will probably be very difficult, I'm so glad that at least we'll have peace during them (no one trying to take control of things, no annoying complaints or criticisms, and well, no one pointing guns at anyone, lol... so that's definitely a plus!). I can say without a doubt that being here at the end with you two is a wonderful situation, and I really can't wait to play in the final challenges with both of you. :)
