Stranded in Nepal

Congratulations! You've made it to the Final 5!

The time to the final round is getting closer and closer. Size up your competition and tell me how you think they stack up. Who are you looking to get to the end with? Who are you hoping doesn't make it?

Kimmi will automatically win if she gets to the end. She's played great, she's very likable, and she made very few, if any, enemies, and all that rolled into one is a dangerous package to go up against.

Chris has definitely come on strong lately, and he's also got a good chance to win. He's got his fingerprints all over the last few votes, although he may have rubbed some people the wrong way by flipping so much and pitting some people against each other.

Jeff is someone who I think can win, but apparently no one else does, including himself. He's helped out pretty much everyone on the jury at one point or another, but he's also gone against them at a later time. I think he's got a chance to talk his way out of a bad situation, but his chances and status are very much up in the air.

Tina is the last person I would expect to win, although it's not like she's out of the running by any means. She has come off as kind of a loopy, out of it presence on the surface, but she knows what she's doing and has held her own these last few tribals, and she's been a key factor in a few votes now, namely Denise and Debb.

Ideally, I'll be in the end with Tina and either Jeff or Chris, most likely the latter. It's a group I've been with for a while, however they flipped back and forth quite a few times, and I've stayed true to the group that I started with to the bitter end, all while apparently having a big target on my back. Plus if it weren't for me (and Angie, in essence), Chris probably wouldn't be here right now because of the idol play last night, so it's an ace in the hole that I'd be able to bring up if need be. None of this is gonna matter if Kimmi is in the end, though, I've been saying it all along and it remains unchanged, she's a shoo-in to win if she's sitting across from the jury rather than with the jury.

Wow, final 4...this is surreal, I can't believe I've made it this far and that I'm only 1 tribal away from the end after tonight. Wow...

I really hope Tina realizes that she'll kill any chance she has of winning if she votes for Chris instead of Kimmi. It'd be a damn shame for sure, especially because it would've meant that Kimmi got to final 4 pretty much without lifting a finger in the process. After that, she's just a challenge win away from a unanimous win, and that would be a very anti-climactic ending to this otherwise fun and relatively unpredictable season.
