After yet another struggle at Tribal Council, the two tribes finally merged. I think pretty much everyone was expecting that to happen at Final Ten, but that doesn't mean at all we weren't happy for that milestone, specially after working so hard to survive after the swap.
With both Colby and Reynold leaving at the double elimination week, the Magnetic tribe had a 8 to 2 numbers advantadge.... Well, we had that until Stephen went missing out of the blue, which I really don't understand at all. Seriously, he was annoyingly active and, then, all of the sudden, he doesn't show up to anything and gets removed from the game for being an inactive. What the hell? I hope he's alright, but that doesn't mean I'm not pissed at him, because we were allies and now I'm worried that I lost some of the power I had in this new tribe.
The first individual immunity challenge of the merge was all about knowing everyone's perceptions of each other. I didn't do very well at all at figuring out what's the consensus around camp, but I have to confess I'm really glad I'm not on anyone's radar. While everyone was talking about Brenda, Parvati and NaOnka, no one told I was going to win or that I didn't deserve to be sitting here where I am, so I think I'm fine for now, because I'm probably not a target yet, which gives me time to work my way into a safer spot than I am right now.
At the end, Brett won the challenge after a tie-breaker with Kat. I don't think his victory mattered a lot because everyone was still with tribal lines in their minds, but the weird thing about it all is that he chose to send Kat to Exile Island. He had seven other people from the old Magnetic tribe to send there and prove that he was still in with that idea, but, instead, he sent one of the two outcasts that were the biggest targets. I don't appreciate that at all and I think no one did too, because it only proved that Brett was playing his own game and that he couldn't be trusted at all, because he could be working with them to take one of us out.

After the results of Immunity Challenge, all the attention was going now into the decision of the next vote at Tribal Council. Since Brett had immunity, his decision to send Kat to Exile Island wouldn't come to bite him in the ass right away, but karma is a bitch, so he is going to get what's going for coming as soon as possible. With a huge number advantadge, the old Magnetic tribe could do one of two different things: stay together and vote the old members of Lindquist once and for all or take out the bigger targets since Kat and Jerri didn't have anyone to back them up, except for maybe Brett, which no one could trust. I think everyone was scared of letting both girls stay in the game and then get Galu'd, so we all agreed to take at least one of them before getting rid of one of us, so there's no way they can take us in the future. Parvati and Brenda are my closest allies at this point, so finding out from both of them at this point that Jerri was the target only made sure that I was going to vote for her. So, to make sure to both of them that I wasn't going to flip on them like Brett seemed to be going to, I decided to talk with them.
