Carol Journey 11:35 pm
youre there
Erika Landin 11:35 pm
ok now we're cooking
Erika Landin 11:38 pm
its tough lol, but basically playing defensively and watching for all your opportunities
Carol Journey 11:40 pm
son of a bitch
I just knew I had that haha
Erika Landin 11:40 pm
HAHA
this time, dont worry about winning- just try to block me
b/c eventually if u do that, the other person will make a mistake
Carol Journey 11:41 pm
ok
:-(
Carol Journey 11:42 pm
OMG
I slipped
I didnt mean to do that
Erika Landin 11:43 pm
haha thats ok
hopefully karen will suck
Carol Journey 11:43 pm
and that one space, I was like "DONT DROP THERE" and within 5 seconds I had forgot
Erika Landin 11:43 pm
LOL, try again- just play defensively
then we will switch
Carol Journey 11:43 pm
I despise Chess, so I this is so similar
Erika Landin 11:45 pm
haha you got it
Carol Journey 11:45 pm
even when i saw those almost 4 in row I was like, naw just wait haha
ok were getting places now
Erika Landin 11:46 pm
wanna do that again?
Carol Journey 11:46 pm
yes
Erika Landin 11:46 pm
Ok... ill go, and u block
Carol Journey 11:47 pm
well
Carol Journey 11:47 pm
hahaha
Erika Landin 11:47 pm
hahaha... just go very slow too when u play her
Erika Landin 11:51 pm
niccee
Carol Journey 11:51 pm
woo!
Carol Journey 11:54 pm
I dont even ever catch Karen on AIM
Erika Landin 11:54 pm
i know thats the thing...
Carol Journey 11:54 pm
idk how id play with her
Erika Landin 11:56 pm
That was GREAT
you had it won like in 3 spots
Carol Journey 11:56 pm
yeah that went really well, I really just need to be able to knock out this half of the bracket
cause you knocked out Andrew right?
Erika Landin 11:56 pm
yeah
Carol Journey 11:57 pm
that sucks
Erika Landin 11:57 pm
hated that i had to go against him
i think kev said he beat marvin
btw, what did you think of the twist?
Carol Journey 11:57 pm
I think it takes the heat off us
I think Kevin or Danielle would put up Marvin and Jordan
Erika Landin 11:58 pm
Yes
and Karen too
Carol Journey 11:58 pm
right
Carol Journey 11:59 pm
what do you think we should do?
Erika Landin 12:00 am
I dont know for sure...
Carol Journey 12:00 am
Its kinda easy to just make a house deal to get out the phantasm people first
but Kevin is still a huge threat
Erika Landin 12:01 am
yeah definitely
if i won HOH, i'd probably nominate Karen for sure.
Carol Journey 12:02 am
dang, good job
Erika Landin 12:02 am
thanks
Carol Journey 12:02 am
Yeah id either go Karen/Kevin or Marvin/Jordan
thats so weird to say Marvin/Jordan haha
Erika Landin 12:05 am
I know
LOL
Erika Landin 12:09 am
Very good game!!
Carol Journey 12:09 am
haha I just couldnt make that work ANY other way
Carol Journey 12:12 am
ok I think I got the hang of how it works now haha
Erika Landin 12:12 am
haha cool
So yeah, strategy is going to get intense...
Carol Journey 12:14 am
haha yeah of course
2 people coming in totally changed things
Erika Landin 12:14 am
yeah it really did...
Erika Landin 12:19 am
it might be a good chance for us take one of the new players under our wing...
marvin is really cool and apprently he was Amanda most of the time
Carol Journey 12:20 am
Yeah im good with keeping them around and putting up Kevin and Karen first
they voted me out this round
so no love lost there
Erika Landin 12:20 am
lol yeah and karen lied on me, so no love loss there either
Carol Journey 12:21 am
what did she say?
Erika Landin 12:22 am
Well, you know I wasn't going around saying like " I want Carol to stay" because obviously that would be obvious... so i tried to stay neutral, but tlak more about booting lisa
Carol Journey 12:22 am
right
Erika Landin 12:22 am
but openly said "I'm on fence" you know how that goes! LOL...
and she told Lisa I was going after her, etc...
Carol Journey 12:23 am
damn
Carol Journey 12:23 am
thats crazy. I dont think you would have ever openly said thats what youre doing
especially to Karen
Erika Landin 12:24 am
exactly, who i knew was on the fence...
Erika Landin 12:30 am
what are you doing on friday night?
Carol Journey 12:30 am
Im being really boring and sitting home
but tomorrow night, its goin down
Erika Landin 12:31 am
haha
awesome
do you live at home?
Carol Journey 12:37 am
i do now
I just recently moved back home
Erika Landin 12:38 am
oh for summer?
Carol Journey 12:38 am
its a horrible town haha
no I finished college and didnt know what I wanted to do yet
Erika Landin 12:39 am
oh thats cool whats your degree in?
Carol Journey 12:39 am
Fitness Science
Carol Journey 12:39 am
its a precursor for med school
which is where I will go next
Erika Landin 12:42 am
oh thats awesome
med school is bad ass
Carol Journey 12:43 am
so what are you doing in life?
Erika Landin 12:43 am
well im about to finish up my last year of psychology... and i was supposed to go on to be a psychologist but i need a break.. even though my parents are not happy about it.
now it's like what am I going to do with a psych. degree
Carol Journey 12:47 am
haha right, I hear ya
my friend is a psych major and doesnt really know what to do with it
Erika Landin 12:48 am
yeah, its good if you keep going... but hard if you dont
i wouldnt mind maybe getting a masters in something else, but idk
Carol Journey 12:50 am
right, its a "masters" degree
but if you do that, you make bank haha
Erika Landin 12:50 am
yeah lol
did your family push you to do med school?
Carol Journey 12:51 am
no I wanted to do it
not always but Im big into health and fitness anyway
but Im gonna be a plastic surgeon by the end
Erika Landin 12:51 am
oh wow
so do you have a nice body?
haha
Carol Journey 12:52 am
haha Id like to think so
Carol Journey 12:52 am
I actually am having my first plastic surgery this Thursday
so im hoping we dont have any challenges that day haha
Erika Landin 12:52 am
what kind of surgery, if you dont mind me asking?
Carol Journey 12:52 am
rhinoplasty
I hope its the ONLY thing I ever have done haha
Im not big on lots of surgery, I just want to help people get rid of the things that bother them hardcore
Erika Landin 12:54 am
yeah thats understandable
Erika Landin 12:54 am
are your parents paying?
Carol Journey 12:55 am
no its free
you can have free plastic surgery if you let a resident do it
Erika Landin 12:57 am
oh really?
I didnt know that
Carol Journey 12:57 am
yep, you just have to pay anesthesia and a room fee
but its literally a fraction of the cost
Erika Landin 12:58 am
wow thats amazing
Carol Journey 12:58 am
my friend got her boob job for like 900 and my surgery is 1200
normally rhinoplasty is at least 6000
so if youre ever looking to get plastic surgery, I recommend going that route
Erika Landin 12:59 am
yeah no joke. thats amazing savings
Erika Landin 1:01 am
i guess i better go though
fun talking to you!
Carol Journey 1:02 am
