The Twists
Oh My FUCKING Lord. I won't lie, I saw a few of these twists coming. Houses merging? Yeah totally expected that. Double Eviction week? Didn't know it would be this week, but I expected at least one in the game. But A WHOLE OTHER GAME going on at the same time as ours? I nearly shit a brick.
This twist is insane. Throwing 2 more people in the house is just not something I counted on happening. Time to regroup.
Alex coming back was not good for me. I mean, he is an alright guy, but I know that his allegiance will never be with me because of all of his connections in the game. Josh, on the other hand, is someone I could see myself allying with. But the thing is, they are so evidently together, and that probably ties Josh to She. I swear, every bit of luck in this god damn game has fucking benefitted Sheila. EVERY SINGLE FUCKING BIT OF IT - from Dave quitting to the worst judging of an HoH challenge ever seen . I am so sick of it. I want that bitch out of here.
HoH
Fuck, that was an annoying competition. I mean, yeah it was fun and I am glad I performed decently, but I was never gonna win. I am at the top of Sheila's shit list and consequentially she is sending her minions after me
. When will these people get a mind of their own? Would James have probably gone after me anyways? Hell yeah, but I am pretty damn sure that he needed Sheila to give him the nod of approval before he went through with it.
It also really sucked that people kept on pressuring me about who to make compete against eachother. Its like, if you want to decide who is gonna be up against eachother, then ask someone to pick you and earn the right to decide on your own. Obviously everyone has their own reason for wanting to do things, so don't act like I have to do what YOU want me to. I refuse to be anybody's bitch in this game except Lydia's lol.
It was pretty damn epic though, having James and I go back and forth for three rounds, both surviving no matter who we threw at eachother. I couldn't believe that he survived Sheila AND Nathan. I am just relieved that he did not win and I am not on the block because of that.
Also, it felt great to be part of the reason why Sheila did not win
.
Jason and Renny
Honestly, a wave of relief washed over me the second that we won the challenge. I knew I was in an decent position when I saw the winners. Jason would be a moron to come after me because there are so many more people that are looking to get rid of him. I am not coming after him, and I hope he knows that, because I don't know how I can be more clear about it. And Renny? Well, her and I have actually had a pretty solid relationship in this game.
Nominations
SO glad to see Big She up. So so glad. You don't even know. So yeah, go Renny! You tell that self righteous prick! And it was even better to see James on the block beside her. Because it basically ensures that one of my enemies will leave this week.
Jason's nominations I am not so thrilled about, but at least Lydia and Eddie were spared from the block.
Veto
Well, I couldn't make the veto. In fact, as a side note I hope that if I am ever nominated and there is a veto on Fri or Sat, that it would be at 10 instead of 9, because 9 is really hard for me to make (and I am not the only one in that position). But even if I did, I do not think I would have won. Apparently Alex helped Sheila win. I wish that Renny would have nominated him for that, but alas, it clearly was not going to happen. I made sure to let Renny know that there would be no pressure from me on her nominations, and I was not about to back out of that agreement and tell her to nominate Alex.
Renny's decision to replace Sheila with Will was a big wtf moment, but I am not gonna complain. It kept my besties safe, and allowed for me to forge something with Will. I don't know quite how seriously he is gonna take it, but I think that he feels kinda isolated. And best of all, I am (hopfully) gonna outlast that mutha fucka James. And, might I add that I am SO tired of his jokes about rape. I guess he never gets any action in rl, so his fantasies would never include a voluntary partner
.
Alliances
Wow am I ever becoming over extended. Prior to this week, Lydia and I were basically only with Eddie. I knew I had Jason on my side, and I am sure that Lydia has a person or two, but we were relatively uninvolved in the MAJOR scheme of things.
Well, things have changed because now we are apparently hot commodities. Seriously, I think that if I won HoH, there would be a lot of people who would assume they are safe. Lydia. Eddie. Will. Jun. Jason. Renny. Josh. All of them would probably be pretty pissed if I nominated them. The only two that could count on me not nominating them 100% are Lydia and Eddie, but I genuinely like the rest of them and I will just have to honour those deals to the best of my ability.
The way I see it, there are gonna be two targets I need to really get rid of in this game. Sheila and Nathan. IMO Sheila has to go before Nathan, but that doesn't mean that I am any less concerned about Nathan. I know that he will look to get rid of me at some point, but I am kinda trying to pair up with a few people he might count on to vote me out so that it won't happen when he targets me. Because I do feel like that is an innevitability.
Rachel <3
Rachel is the fourth person in this game that I will be seeing leave and not be happy about. But I can tell this means so much more to Jun than it does to Rachel. And yeah, I know that isn't a good strategic reason to keep someone, but I like both of them so it was a tough decision anyways. Anyways, I told her the truth (that I was going to evict her), and I was very relieved to hear that she was not too upset.
I am so relieved to find out I was not misreading her when I thought we got along pretty well. She is actually a friend, and that is important to me. She is actually the third person that I have found in this game that I am positive I will keep in touch with after. And that is speaking only out of the evicted house guests.
Rachel also did me a HUGE favour and basically we had a conversation before she left about the house dynamics. She revealed to me that she had originally made a f2 with both Nathan and Jun and told me a LOT of important stuff. She also warned me that people are nervous about Lydia and I. Obviously I already knew that would be the case, but it still felt nerve wracking to hear it coming from somebody else. Still though, I am very glad she told me.
The thing I am most glad about is that I don't think anyone in this house has a fucking CLUE about Eddie. Rachel certainly didn't. She described him as a lone wolf to me. I would have told her about us, but I just figured why jeopardize it? Eddie might have got pissed, and I would hate for me to be the reason that someone found out about the three of us. We need to be at least around F7 before people catch on if we want to make it to the end in tact.
Also, Rachel said to me that she would speak to Jun on my behalf. Jun really did annoy me this week with the HoH and all the pressuring, but that is the only time it has happened, and I do want to see her do well in the game.
