This guy has crammed a lot of living into 24 years! I'm hoping he hangs around for quite a while!

If his ego is in check he might end up being the good guy of the season.

He shouldn't mention the "Most Eligible Bachelor" thing to the girls right off the bat or ever.

Something just doesn't seem right about him, he seems almost out of touch with the world, after all he has no favorite TV show. He strikes me as someone who is on the move non stop.

I think I will like him.

Being weird on day one is not a good way to play survivor imo. The energy hands thing was just too weird...especially on a tribe of just guys and just young guys.

It's fresh to see a young person whose not trying to be cool and trendy. He looks after his health, body, mind and spirit. Could be to his benefit or his demise

I agree with Happymonm...standing out like a sore thumb...gets you first boot position in your group.

Ugh! Why oh why did he have to do some of that talking before they went to tribal council tonight? They were already talking about him being untrustworthy! I'm concerned here because he's my guy in the pool at work. Well, my half-guy. I was out for number of days due to a death in my family and missed out on the pool. One of the other teachers was very nice and said that I could go halves on her Survivor..who happens to be Aras! I hope he can hang in there somehow.
