Take it or leave it, make it or break it, boy we only got tonight.

Before I do my Survivor commentary tonight, I want to do two things: first, apologize for the lack of updates, things have been crazy around here plus something's up with my laptop charger so I didn't get to blog much, and second, tell everyone to go buy Kris Allen's debut single "Live Like We're Dying" on iTunes. He won "American Idol" season 8 and is a brilliant artist.

Now, on to what I came here to do. Recap tonight's episode of Survivor.

So things at Foa Foa are a little different with Marisa gone. Russell H. teams up with Jaison to form an alliance. Jaison agrees to this.

The combined Reward/Immunity challenge is a physical challenge that involves a lot of wrestling and pushing people away. Two goals into it Jeff warns the tribe that if another physical harm is done, whoever did it will be pulled out of the challenge. Ben on Foa Foa goes a little too far and is the first person ever in the history of Survivor to be pulled out of a challenge for being too rough. Galu goes on to win the challenge and wins Immunity and fishing gear.

After the challenge Jeff tells Russell S., the leader of Galu, to select one member of his tribe to go over to Foa Foa to observe them and sit in on their next Tribal Council; Russell chooses Yasmin. She recieves a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol, which Russell H. already found. He also tells Foa Foa to stick around because he wanted the Medical Team to take a look at Mike, who was low on oxygen during the challenge and wasn't feeling well. The doctor diagnosed that his blood pressure was too low and that he be removed from the game due to medical reasons. I am always sad when a player is eliminated for medical reasons, whether I liked the player or not. Like last season with Joe. I liked him a lot, he reminded me a bit of this barista who works at the Starbucks I always go to (coincidentally also named Joe), and he had to be pulled from the game because something was wrong with his leg. I was really sad.

So at Foa Foa Yasmin decides to stir things up. This does not settle well with Ben, and his comments about Yasmin do not settle well with Betsy. Russell, being the Puppet Master that he is (that term reminds me of this really wtf-worthy dance that I saw on TV and ended up teaching at my school for this acting thing. I felt like a cheerleader hyped up on sugar), targets Betsy for elimination because she doesn't trust him, and he rallies everyone together to vote for her.

At Tribal Council, Yasmin sits in and observes while the tribemates talk about what she did while she was with their tribe. Before the vote, Yasmin is sent back to her tribe. Betsy quietly sings the "Cops" theme song as she casts her vote for Ben. And Ben said that he thought she was a good cop, but ended up being a bad cop, then fired an imaginary gun at her as he cast his vote. Betsy ends up being unanimously voted out 7-1. I didn't have much of an opinion on Betsy because it's so early on in the game, but I was like "you go girl!" when she said she didn't trust Russell. My mom's friend asked me if I hated him and of course I did. So peace out Betsy. You rock for not liking Russell.

And before I sign off, I'll say it again: GO BUY KRIS ALLEN'S SINGLE ON iTUNES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S FLIPPING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

Love y'all
