~ Week One ~
So the game starts off on a good note; everyone here had a couple of days to get to know one another before our first HOH comp and I used that time to build relationships with at least half the house. More than that even after tonight. I would like to think I'm on everyone's good side, but I have no idea where I stand with Dominic, Kara, Lori & Rachel. I spoke to Lori a little while after she won the first Head of House but she responded in ways that gave me no real opening to conversate(sp?) and get to know her... Lori wasn't even on my radar before tonight. It was even bordering on forgetting she was here, so I'm definitely nervous about nominations tomorrow. I think it would be kind of foolish to target me when there's obviously a couple of people that seem to stay away from socializing with the rest of us. (Ratchet Rachel, for instance) I do have my first ally! And he comes in the form of cutie Jason. He even dubbed our alliance the "secret wedding alliance" since we bonded over our love of BB Canada and agreeing that Topaz & Gary's alliance is our favorite. Oh and Dani D. & Keesha are my girls, I just love them so far! Hopefully being friendly and keeping things light this week will keep me out of dodge. But I assure you, if Lori puts me up tomorrow after she gave me what was probably the most awkward conversation ever, I'm done and its game on. |

 ~ Week One, Post-Nomination Ceremony ~
Well I was going to play it easy and be on everyone's good side for as long as I could manage...but Lori made an enemy out of me. I don't understand, because I was on AIM so often that I managed to (genuinely?) befriend over half the house. Lori was one of those girls I was never going to be able to work with, I could tell and of course that made me nervous for nominations. It just really sucks because I did approach her, even told her I had "mad respect" for her and she repays me like this? I guarantee there was at least one other person here that she hardly knows at all. So why me? I just don't understand. I chose Keesha for veto because she's one of those people you really really love talking with, but talk no game at all to. So I thought that this way she would be made aware that I do respect her and want to work with her. I just hope that the house realizes I do deserve to be here; I did very well in the HOH competition, while some didn't even compete. I participated in the house drinking game (almost everyone did, but there were still three girls I think that just haven't bothered much with communicating on the board with others) and I even cracked a joke or two, trying to get people to feel at ease with me. I don't know, but it will be such an injustice if I leave here week one. For shame, Lori. For shame. Beware if I ever come across an HOH win girl, because your ass is not only up for elimination but also my target. |

 ~ Week One, Pre-Eviction Ceremony ~
Well, snap. I had spoken to so many of the other houseguests and built good relationships with them almost across the board. I thought it was almost a guarantee that I would survive week one, but nope! I now must worry until I know for certain who's leaving tomorrow. I spoke to Jason, Joe, and Keesha tonight and learned some very interesting tidbits of information. Apparently Dominic has a deal with Kara for one thing and brought up "valid points" for keeping Kara over me to Keesha. Luckily for me, Keesh is my best friend in this house and after tonight I only know that as fact. She has apparently been campaigning for me to stay..she told me she was at it for THREE hours one day and even rallied up my supporters to call them Team Chima. I basically sold my heart to the girl after hearing that. Also to my surprise, Danielle Murphree let me know I have her support this week and I also confirmed with Jason and Joe that I have each of their votes. That makes four. David and I really bonded recently over our love of the marijuana. We hit it off so well that I've started calling him my twinsie, and whenever we have the same idea we call it twinning. I am certain I have his vote as well. That takes it up to 5, and 11 people will be voting. Dani D. and I clicked from the jump. I am as close to her as I am to Keesha, I'm just not sure that she campaigned as hard as she did - lol! Anyways, Dani and I relate to each other on more than a few levels and so by that and plus that she told me the other day she was for sure keeping me makes me think I still have her vote in the bag. That takes us to a total of 6 - majority. I should be safe. Drew promised me his vote a couple days ago as well, but people are really wishy-washy in the first week so he could go either way.
But I will honestly be so disappointed if I'm out by week one...I guarantee most of these people will not be as exciting to watch as Chima the Diva. Joe agreed with me when I said that half of the house will not show as much personality and gameplay as I have demonstrated my first week in their entire stay during the game. Lori made a very stupid mistake and if I do leave tomorrow - it will NOT be pretty to look at. I promise you that. |

~ Week Two, Pre-HOH ~
Okay, so a few scattered thoughts...I stayed! And now looking back on it, being nominated the first week was the best thing that could have happened to me. It opened up so many doors of communication with most of the house. The 7 votes to keep me...I WERKED for those. I was on it almost every day making damn sure nothing flipped. Keesha & David helped out soo much with that too, and I told David I have a newfound respect for him. Keesha and I each told the other that we trust each other more than anyone else in the house right now. Dominic told me he voted me out but wants to move forward from here. I told him I respect honesty and that's all I'm going to give in this game. I think we can definitely align at some point in the future. Also, the general consensus is that Lori is a dull person that puts a brick wall up. Like, you cannot talk with that girl. More than a few people agreed with me on that one. Where is Rachel? Who is Wil? That's all I've got for now. |

~ Week Two, Pre-Vote ~
I've laid pretty low this entire week, mostly due to spring break and working a ton of hours, but I did manage to get on Rachel's good side before her nominations. I'm really surprised to see that Joe used the veto to save Jason...who I formed an alliance with but I knew nothing about? It seems like Jason may have just been trying to get on my good side during the first week. I still like both of them but I do think it was a bad game move - Jason was obviously going to survive this week. Danielle went up as a replacement and with Wil now campaigning along with Rachel's comment at the veto ceremony makes me think she could be the one targeted? Danielle has my vote for sure, but no one's really discussed things with me about this vote. |

~ Week Three ~
To go from feeling on the outs to HOH was enlightening enough but this now gives me a golden opportunity to talk more in depth with a lot of people. I can tell a couple of them are squirming already - James for one approached me and talked about how he enjoyed our conversations and that he liked seeing my turnaround in this game. I do appreciate that, but the rest of his message just seemed like he felt the need to talk with me a lot more for his safety. I don't mind that - even though he was a vote against me the first week I never held that against him. Speaking of first week shenanigans, Lori approached me for the first time since week one ;D I just found the timing funny...had I not won this HOH I doubt I would have spoken to her until her impending doom. But myself and to a lesser extent Lori are two grown ass women and have set aside our differences. I was very honest with her about going up on the block this week as I've received nothing from her in this game except a possible eviction. That doesn't shed too kindly on Lori when I have to compare her to every other houseguest, most of whom I've genuinely gotten along with up to this point. She completely understood and it seems like we're on friendly terms now... I did tell her that no matter what, I wouldn't tarnish her name this week. And is it even a question that Wil is going up? Of course that seems like the "easy way out" but he does not deserve to be here. What is it, three strikes against him and it's still this early? On top of that he's done nothing but ignore my two attempts at befriending him so it should be no surprise and I'll definitely make it known in due time. But for now I'd like to see how many more people scramble up to the HOH suite to chat with the Queen B. |

~ Week Three, Post-Wil's Banishment ~
That boy just couldn't go as hard as the rest of us here so I'm thrilled that there are only people left who are actually playing the game. Danielle told me to avenge her...does this count?  She called for him to be expelled and she got her wish. However, I won't be nominating Rachel this week as her and I have talked a lot more recently..even a couple days before I won HOH we were on really good terms I thought. My entire strategy of putting Wil & Lori up on the block has to change, but I'm not afraid to play some of my cards right now. I want to hear what each person has to say since I told nearly everyone that they had nothing to worry about this week. I hope that they'll at least understand that Wil's expulsion was out of my hands and that it caused me to have to think up something entirely different. Maybe I'll play a game of Big Brother Roulette and secretly poll the houseguests who they want to see up on the block next to Lori. This could be a very smart way of learning where true loyalties and dislikes lie in the house. The more I think about it, the better it is that I won HOH this week in particular. I went from feeling like my time was on the brink of being limited here to making the final ten and being given the perfect opportunity to connect with more people. I'll check back in here soon when I gather more insight  |

~ Week Three, Post-Nominations ~
I ended up nominating Lori and Joe for eviction this week...I hope that Joe isn't too upset, because I thoroughly explained to him that every single person in the house agreed that Lori is leaving no matter who I put up there next to her. Joe is a very jolly, light-hearted man. We've gotten along very well up to this point so I don't see why this should be too big of a deal. Lori...I honestly couldn't care less if she's upset. I did have some strategy going on with my nominations, however. I've been speaking a lot to both James and Dominic lately; I know they were two votes against me at the start and my intuition has been telling me that they're aligned for some time now. So I decided to keep that duo on my side for now because putting one of them up would surely upset the other. My ally David also completely agreed to this, feeling that they were aligned as well. He even encouraged me to cut a deal with the both of them to keep me safe for a while - I loveeeee David! He is by far my favorite person here along with Keesha. The fact that he has my best interest at heart along with no one really knowing how close we are makes him my ideal ally for this game. Placing his key last was purposely done to throw people off and have them think he would be my replacement nom if it came down to it. I thought this would work because Danielle was freaking out to several people last week about her key being pulled last, even before she went up! David told me that James mentioned this and that he should try talking to me some more - lol! My trick worked. Well I hope I can dominate in this veto because I need noms to stay the same, I can't go around making more and more enemies for myself here. |
