survivor philippines: notes from episode 2 and 3

here are some important notes and observations from episodes 2 and 3 of survivor philippines:

> jace arrived first in the beach during the first episode and his tribe was given the larger camp site. the catch? it was farther from the location of the challenge. the boys had the larger camp site but when they arrived there, it was already dark; no chance of beilding a temporary shelter and explore the area.
> both teams had difficulty sleeping due to insects and the occasional downpour of rain
> naak is a step ahead of the boys in terms of tribe activities. the girls were able to find the water hole first, they started their shelter ahead of the boys and they hunted for food first.
> the girls are getting along well, but patani gets some of the girls irritated because she talks a lot, will this affect her standing in the tribe?
> nikki and charisse are evidently having a hard time, lagging behide in terms of working for the tribe. stepping up for naak are chev, zita aand patani.
> food search has commenced in both tribes. what did they catch? oysters and crabs for naak; fruits and fish for jarakay
> excitement is commencing: personality clashes is starting in jarakay! marlon shows his strong personality; saying his opinion on all of the issues in the tribe... quite irritating, but very interesting
> gigit steps up to be the leader of jarakay. delegates work so they can finish everything that needs to be done. work ethics of jarakay is quite impressive, finishing everything in a short span of time except for the fire, where gigit is assigned.
> marlon thinks that the other males in jarakay are forming an alliance, which is based on social status. is that called insecurity or what? he talked with cris about it and wants to form an alliance between him, cris and emer. powerplaying this early in the game may cause him an early boot. let's see how this plays off
> marlon swears a lot. can he talk without swearing? his swearing now becomes so irritating because of the beeps we hear every now and then to cover up the bad words he is uttering.
> gigit steps down as leader because ha wasn't able to fulfill his task to build fire. he steps down as mediator and let kiko lead the tribe. quitting this early in the game? sounds like strategy...
> both teams has not been able to build fire. in the game of survival, fire is an essential element; let's see which team will be able to build fire first.
