So this week started off great. Crazy-face Jameka... possibly my biggest rival in this game (who did nothing but stir the pot last week and throw my name out there when I hadn't even talked about the game) WALKS!! Bye bitch! Don't let the door hit you on your way out! Boom! Just like that, she's outta there. On the one hand I feel great about it, because Jameka was hella dangerous for my game. But on the other hand, I really wish she would've stayed and played. Nobody likes to see someone go down like that, and as much as I was happy with the result, I secretly wished we could've evicted her the good ol'fashioned way. But this is Big Brother, and you never know what can happen.
Then, my week got progressively worse. Carol, out of nowhere, takes the HoH! My jaw dropped when I saw the results.... SAY WHAAAT??! I didn't even know this bitch was playing the game with us until now. Can somebody say ULTIMATE SLEEPER?? Carol winning is nooo good for me.. I've been suspicious of the three girls (Carol - Lori - Cassi) for awhile now... and any of them winning HoH is the worsst possible thing. I really needed to win HoH this week, or at least someone from my alliance... and it just didn't happen for us. And in Big Brother.. if you don't win the right competitions, you go home!
Thank god Dominic decided to use his Dual Veto this week... I think because he knew we both were in trouble. During the Eliminator HoH it was clear that Carol did not want either of us to win it, since we were the first two she put up to play against each other.. Now, Dominic has the power to be the Co-HoH and stop Carol from putting up two of our own!! At this point, I'm feeling slightly more optimistic about this week.. Dominic in the HoH bedroom can never be a bad thing for my game.. right??
Then comes.... the Luxury Competition from hell. Big Brother presented us with a variety of different colored doors to chose from. Behind each door could be something good or something bad. Of course, I picked the worst possible door... and got put on slop for the week. This is my first time being on slop... and I CANNOT STAND IT. SLOP IS TERRIBLE!! I literally feel demoralized and not interested in the game.. every time I come on to the site, the background is flashing, I can't see what's been written.. it literally is the worst thing. Thanks Big Brother! This week is not going well for Dick at this point... but wait.. believe it or not, it gets worrrse!
Of course Keith finds Pandora's Box behind his door, and of course he decides to open it! KEITH WHAT ARE YOU THINKINGGG??!? Pandora's box is opened and now, the Veto twist is overr! My reaction? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I was so safe with the twist still in effect... I had a ton of vetoes saved up, a good amount of Chenbucks left that I could spend... I was sitting pretty. Now I'm on slop, my vetoes and money are useless and I'm in danger with Carol in the HoH room... worst, week, everrrr!
On to the nomination ceremony.. OF COURSE I'M NOMINATED!! Thanks Dom! I get this whole... trying to cover up alliances thing, but really... I don't want to be on the block. Dominic said he did feel bad, and did give me a heads up before the ceremony that I would probably be going up with Keith, but this just sucks. I mean... couldn't you have pushed Carol to do Scott and Keith or something? But it's cool... this IS Big Brother, and I can't really expect to go through this game without a little block time. But still... ugh. I should.. theoretically be safe this week, since I have Scott, Adria and hopefully Braden voting to keep me in.. but you just NEVER KNOW!!
Going into the Veto competition I knew I had to win, to pull myself off the block. With everyone trying to conceal alliances, I don't know if ANYONE would actually veto me. I mean... I want to trust these people to keep me, but you never can know. THE PAWN ALWAYS GOES HOME! And I'm the PAWN! So, I know I need to win the veto or else I'm in trouble. The competition this week is a bluffing game. My strategy going into the competition is to guess FALSE for everyone's statements... b/c I'm sure everyone will be tempted to create at least a couple lies, so this way I'll be guaranteed to get a bunch of hits. My strategy did work... I got 6 pts.. but Scott was able to edge me out my one extra point and take home the VETO!
So Scott winning should be good for me. He's totally one of my #1 allies... along with Dom, so I'm like COME ON BOYS HELP ME OUT!! Don't leave me on the block... there are no guarantees in this game what will happen.. And OF COURSE... Scott decides to not veto me... I think, similar to Dom, he's trying to conceal our alliance (I hope...). I feel like I've been left in the line of fire, at the hands of my two allies. Like.. COME ON Dom and Scott!! I was totally planning on going to the final three together.. and NEITHER OF YOU can take me out of the line of fire?? If I stay this week... I will definitely remember this. Maybe I should just go to the end with Adria and Braden after-all. At this point... with the slop, being on the block, having my two strongest allies have the power to save me this week, and not do it... this week just sucks. I mean.. I almost feel like if it continues the way it has.. I very well might be walking out of those doors. The one positive thing, is that Julie told us that this week the evicted houseguest could return to the game.. so who knows. I'm hoping my allies will come through for me on the vote, but at this point I feel like it's 50/50 between myself and Keith leaving. We'll just have to see how it goes down... I'm just so done with this game and this week. ugh.
