PARTING WORDS

What was the most difficult aspect of being on BIG BROTHER?
No contact with my real friends or my family. 

Did you play the game as you hoped you would, strategy-wise?
For the most part, yes. My only regret was not nominating Nathan alongside of Alison. 

What personality trait is most important for winning this game?
The ability to be phony! Obviously not one of my strong points. 

Knowing what you know now, with whom should you have formed an alliance with, or do you think that you should have stayed with the Elite 8?
I think that my alliance of 5 (Jee, Jun, Justin, Robert and myself) was the strongest and coolest alliance, by far! I truly didn't want to be part of the "elite 8" after the first few days, and was totally happy to leave that group. 

Which HouseGuest was the greatest threat to you, and why?
Personally, I didn't feel like any one HouseGuest was a real "threat" to me. Alison had a reason to put me on the block because I nominated her the previous week, but she shouldn't have made it past that point. 

What was your favorite moment in the BIG BROTHER House?
Winning HoH and getting my personalized "welcome basket." The notes from my friends and family put everything into a new perspective for me. That was truly the greatest moment in that crazy House. 

Who do you think will win, and why?
Any member of my alliance, really. Jun, Justin, Robert or Jee. They are all great players but most of all they are great people and deserve to win. 

What advice would you give to future BIG BROTHER HouseGuests?
Don't get too close to anybody once inside the House. My mistake was that I really started to "like" people and that made the game personal--which is a big no-no. 

Who do you think will win?
I think Justin has a great chance of winning, but he's the first one the original alliance wants out. They'll be coming after him right away. I'm hoping that Jun can sneak her way through to the end. 

What was your first reaction when the exes walked in? Were you relieved that you did not have an ex? Did you feel the couples had an advantage or disadvantage?
I was thrilled when my ex didn't walk through that door. Too much emotion was brought into the House with the Exes, and I'm already an emotionally charged individual. Having to deal with my ex would have killed me. 

The Exes were at a total disadvantage. Personal opinions and stories were being told all over the House, leading people to form different opinions than they would have on their own. 

Who was your favorite person and least favorite person in the House?
There's a tie for my least favorite person in the House. Nathan is one of my least favorite for using the veto on Alison. Alison is my least favorite because she's just not my type of person. 

There's also a tie for my favorite person in the House. Jun was my fave because she's just so cool. She's just like me, and we had so much fun and so many laughs. I can't wait to see her outside of that House and back in New York! 

Justin was also my fave because he just really reminded me of all my guy friends back at home. He was my breath of fresh air in that House, and I look forward to being friends with him as well. 

I could say that Robert and Jee have qualities that would make them my faves too! Those four really are quality people and I look forward to knowing all of them!
