Diary Room #3

[Rhian Sugden]

I knew the house division was coming! With the house division here, this more than likely means that other twists from the past four seasons will be showing up at some point or the other. Now, as soon as saw the results of the house division, I was thrilled. I wasn't even mad. Honestly, all the people in my house are people I've talked to daily, with the exception of Dominic. I'm happy with my house. I just wish Dixie was in my house. With this house division twist, that meant that the results were definitely going to be shifted, with one house being immune and the other only able to be nominated by the highest point getter and therefore, Head of Household, in their house. Pretty intense.

As the results were unfolding, I noticed that I was getting every single one right. Majority Rules has always been a favorite challenge of mine. I think it shows how social you are, because you can get an idea of what everyone thinks in the house. Like, I knew David was a smoker, I knew Sam was a big Mean Girls fan, I knew people perceived me as slutty because of my home-grown knockers [thx bitches], so I was able to put the right answers in. The last one was the one I struggled with most. Had there been no house division, a tie would've taken place that would've included myself and GinaMarie, with GM getting the win - which is also pretty amazing in itself. Good outcome too!

However, our house ended up being immune, which meant that House #2 was in danger. And guess who the highest getter was? Talla. Jesus. What a random winner. I think it's only fitting, especially after the little talk show she's been hosting in the Living Room. It's just funny, is all. The thing about Talla winning, is that you have absolutely no idea what she's thinking. She's such a wildcard, it's insane. My worry is that Dixie could be in trouble, but Talla needs to take into consideration that Dixie had the opportunity to nominate her last week, and didn't, so therefore I think Talla should keep her safe. Atleast I hope so.

Joe and Roddy are up. Talla really didn't waste any time in getting her nominations up, did she? Joe and Roddy have been nominated once before, so it's not as exciting. It seems the Head of Household's are just pulling from the nomination pool so far. Luckily, Estelle and Ryan haven't had a repeat nomination, but there's still always the future. Joe is someone I've somewhat lost contact with. We spoke often in the first week, but our line of communication has been severed and doesn't necessarily exist any more. I honestly don't find him super interesting, so him being up is whatever to me.

Roddy being up is another story. Roddy's such a hard person for me to place. Like, I like him as a person, I suppose? He's funny and goofy and whatever, but in this game, I don't think I can trust him. I know that he's got relationships in this house with people I'm not really close with, like Dominic, and I feel like he could be trouble for me at some point. We do have little nicknames for each other. He calls me Pam and I call him Sage; I'm Pam because I guess my breasts are similar to Pamela Anderson's? I call him Sage because when I was drunk, I kept mistyping "safe" and was writing "sage". It just stuck since.

Last night there was apparently some drama involving Roddy. I had retired a little early, so I only caught the beginning of it. So, Roddy had started talking to members of House #1, saying how he'd throw all the future competitions so that House #1 would be immune, and all he'd ask in return was that we'd be a set of votes to keep him every week. The reason for this is because he expects to constantly go up because the people in his house are those he never talks to. The way I see it, I feel like all his buddy boys are in my house, and him throwing, keeps them safe, and then they all have an excuse to constantly keep him. It's just shady. All of it is. The best part is that GinaMarie leaked it to Sam and Kristen in the other house, so I can see that spreading more soon!

What's up with Roddy picking Dixie to play in Veto? That was pretty random. I'd love it if Dixie won, the nominations stayed as they were, and Roddy ended up leaving the game. That'd be pretty hilarious, honestly. My only reservation with that, is that I do prefer Roddy over Joe based on personality and just communication in general. If we all do decide to take out Roddy, and even have the opportunity to do so, I'm going to have to pick up the chatting with Joe, even if I really have no desire to. GinaMarie seems to have a good connection with Joe, and I think she could pull some strings with him in the future.

As of right now, I've been sort of sinking into a MOR gameplay. Last season, I was hardcore from the get go, from the start. It's different this season. There's so many great players and it's a large cast. I don't want to stick out like a sore thumb here. I think it's smart to sort of run mid-pack and then later, emerge and start really strategizing with people and playing hard. Right now, I'm just that friendly, flirty person that messages everyone and talks about personal things, like the day, etc. I'll bring up little comments about the competitions, what twists could be coming, chat about votes, stuff like that. But that's it.

I've come close to winning Head of Household the past two weeks, and I'll keep trying to actually win. It's just sucky because I feel like I've been sitting around like a vegetable this week and last week, as I didn't play Veto, and I knew I was 100% safe. I suppose I should just consider myself lucky and deal with it. Soon enough, I'll probably be wishing for these earlier rounds where everything seemed to come easy. I'm sure. So, for now, I'm just hoping that things play out in my favor in House #2 and someone I have no use for leaves the game.

By the way, is it Shir that loves Community?

Fun Fact: My step uncle plays Professor Buzz Hickey.

Yeah it's not me but that's cool that someone you know is on a TV show

I think you caught GM's streak for 2nd place!

I love community! That's really cool you should ask to meet the cast

Joe won the Power of Veto. What the frock? Seriously? That's a little random to me, but hey, more power to him! I really feel like I need to make it a point to try and start talking him again; pick up where we left off. I really do try and talk to everyone as much as I can, but sometimes some people just fall between the cracks and I lose sight of them. Those people are the ones that never, ever initiate with me. If they aren't going to try with me, why should I try with them? Ed, Dominic, and Joe are extremely guilty of this, and that's why I'm gunning for 2/3 of them and would like to see those two leave soon.

There was some worry on my end about who the replacement was possibly going to be. Talla ultimately went with Shane, which was an okay result. I like Shane but I don't completely or entirely trust him. He's given me no reason to trust him but he's also given me no reason to distrust him. With Shane on the block, that really does push me to that desire to want to boot Roddy and just send him packing; knock a Dominic ally out of this game. But what's even greater, is that GinaMarie's leak of the plan has spread even further.

I was having a small chat with Shane last night about him being up and he brought up Roddy's "throwing" plan to me, saying he had heard about it and that practically everyone knew about it. I of 'course admitted to knowing about it, but played it off in the respect that nobody was going to buy what Roddy was selling anyways and that, in addition to the leak, would more than likely send Roddy out the door. When and if Roddy walks out that front door, you can't say he didn't try, because he definitely did .. it just didn't do the trick. Sorry, Sage!
