PARTING WORDS

What was your first reaction when you saw Scott?
Shock, and then nervousness. 

What was the most difficult aspect of being on BIG BROTHER?
Trying not to be fake, because it is almost impossible. 

Did you play the game as you hoped you would, strategy-wise?
I played the game the way I wanted to, but it didn't work for me. 

Knowing about the X Factor now, is there anything you would have done differently?
I maybe would have tried to align with Scott a little more to keep him settled. 

What personality trait is most important for winning this game?
A total disregard for people's feelings. 

Which alliance is strongest, and why?
Jack, Nate, Dave and Erika. That's if Jee doesn't put them up for nomination.
Which HouseGuest was the greatest threat to you, and why?
Dana. I think she had a lot of influence over people initially. 

What was your favorite moment in the BIG BROTHER House?
Probably spending time with Dave. 

Was there instant attraction when you met Dave?
I was initially attracted to Dave. But with Scott being in the House and them being friends, it wasn't something that I was going to pursue. 

Would you like to see Dave win the game?
Yea, I would: Dave, and then probably Jack. 

What advice would you give to future BIG BROTHER HouseGuests?
Just go in and don't take it too seriously. If you take it too seriously, you can kind of burn yourself out.
