Moving On
It really sucks to continue this game without Brittany and Nicole here. They're two of the biggest sweethearts and I know they would have had my back for most of the game. Saying goodbye to them was just terrible. I really hope one of them comes back. Brittany truly is "one in a million." They both want me to stick around and kick some ass so that is what I shall do. I can't live in the past - time to move on.
This new comp beast alliance that has formed will be very beneficial for me. I think it's brilliant how Zach and Nick are unaware how close I am with Ryan, Heaven and Sofia. I feel like I may be viewed as the least threatening out of this group of six? That may be more wishful thinking but a lot of do want some of these big threats out of here. Imagine if we just win all the HoHs from here on out lmao. The only downside is the fact that there isn't one HoH each week.
I've always loved the voices HoH comp lmao except for those damn foreigners! I think I have a great chance at becoming one of the HoHs but my fear is Ash winning because he won this comp last season and the two of us just don't care to talk to one another. If I win I really hope he's in my house so I can nominate his ass. I also hope he pressed the button but fails to leave haha.

When a Tsunami Meets a Hurricane....
The result is glorious!! I had so many ideas floating around in my head as to what this twist could be. Botb was thrown out there so I'm not very surprised to see it make its return. At first my reaction was just utter disgust lmao cause I hate this twist. However, for this season it's not that bad. Looking at the positive side of things, Ryan, one of Sofia or me, and possibly even Heaven (if she gets dethroned) will be able to compete in the next HoH lmao. That is much better than the 4 of us having to sit out.
With Brittany gone, I knew I needed a suitable replacement and I definitely found one! None other than fellow sweetheart Hayley! Can I just say how surprised I am that she's HoH right now? Girl might take it slow but ya know what they say ... the tortoise always beats the hare! She gladly accepted my offer to stay close and play things by ear so let's hope things work out! I like that she's HoH too because I think her primary targets are Brian and Ash - two people I would like to see leave. I kinda want Heaven to get dethroned so she can compete next week lawl.
As far as shit in my house goes, I FO SHO want to get dethroned so I can compete in the next HoH. I don't want to be the one to send one of these people home and Sofia is much more "idgaf" about things so it would be perfect for her to stay in power. We talked and it seemed like I was the one just doing the nominations lol other than Sofia picking Mike of course. Maybe it's cause she doesn't really care at the end of the day idk but she better not think I was strong-arming her or something cause her focus was just on Mike lol. Right now it looks like Sofia will be nominating Mike and Matt and I'll be going for Neda and possibly Candice? Matt is the weakest competitor so the boys should lose the botb pretty easily. Neda VOLUNTEERED to go up lmaoooooooo. She mentioned it to me first but then kinda backpedaled. I kinda went into it again and she's comfortable with going up haha. This is great because the last thing I want is to make enemies this round. If everyone thinks Mike is the target then I'm basically just putting up two strong pawns. I don't want to nom Boog or Nick because they've been nominated already. I'd love to nominate Shilpa because she's strong but that bitch would get so angry at me because I betrayed her last season and she'd take it as another one.
Sofia and I discussed the possibility of backdooring Drew this week. This would be the ideal boot in my humble opinion. He's a threat and is super "busy" this season. Plus, I'm sure he wants some members of The CKC out so bye bye. Sofia is totally down for it too cause she's got that *flips hair, don't care* attitude which I love. The only problem would be getting the votes. However, at the end of the day as long as one of Mike or Drew leaves, I shall be a happy camper.
Heaven is obviously going after Crustine this week which I'm fine with because I don't want the burden of "having her back" this season. Sorry not sorry. If Heaven truly wants that then she should nominate Ika but diva sucks at comps lol. I had to ask Ika to invite me back to the group chat LOL because I heard Sofia was having a little argument with Brian and Keith. I love Sof, but girl don't be getting into fights for no reason lol.

Would a staff member be able to post my nomination ceremony for me tomorrow? I'll be at work and won't be able to post from my phone before deadline. Please and thanks!
Welcome to the second nomination ceremony! Gonna keep this short so let's get right to it!
As nice as it is to be HoH, it's a lot different when the BOTB is in play as it makes this decision a lot harder. I have nothing personal against the two of you but my options were limited and I know you'll rock the BOTB! Good luck!

I Can't Even
I'm still laughing over all the drama I kinda caused this round. I'm still baffled as to why Ika trusts me with info. Does she legit think were sisters or something? I'll never be able to understand that diva ever. The fact that she thought she was definitely safe with Heaven as HoH just speaks volumes over how delusional she truly is. Some things never change. Then there are days where I just like talked to her and she's not crazy. That usually leads me to post a "Smile of the Day" of my own lmao.
Ika was pretty tame in her little *camera pans* moment after Heaven nominated her. I'm not sure if she just really trusts me or if she thinks she's playing me by not thinking I leaked Ash's plan. It's hilarious how Brian got the blame though lmao. I kind of feel bad for him though because now Ash is going to throw the BOTB to try and get him out. Lawl OH FUCKING WELL. Speaking of Ash, that dude is a tool. I just don't like him. Sorry not sorry. I was talking to Zach and we discussed how Ash barely talks to anyone. Zach proceeded to go ask everyone online how much they talk to Ash and the result was an overwhelming "barely." LOL.
Ash throwing BOTB is just stupid. He's saying it's so he can get Brian out which is the funniest thing I've heard all day. We all know the real reason is so he can keep Crustine and Ika safe this week. Dude, everyone knows you're together kay? Ika has loose lips and has confirmed your alliance numerous times already. He's banking on winning the veto so I hope Heaven and/or Zach get picked to play. Ash should just do us all a favour and quit. Kthx.
Ika was giving me a whole bunch of bullshit tonight and it was all just pissing me off. She said people think everyone in S9 is together which I know is false. They think you, Crustine and Ash are together. I'm not a part of it. I told her that and the bitch went silent. She legit denied to me that she's not with them in any way whatsover. I can't. I just can't. Girl, just go. The sad part is she's probably gonna get dragged pretty far into the game. Sigh.

I LEGIT CAN'T EVEN
Why the fuck am I HoH right now? I'm probably the only houseguest ever to not be happy sleeping in the HoH room. Neda and Candice got CREAMED like wtf. Did they throw it to save Mike? I don't get it. I really didn't want to get blood on my hands this week cause Sofia doesn't give a fuckity fuck and I could have gotten her to get rid of a strong player while I chilled poolside. But NOW I gotta do the work myself lmao. No way I want the noms to stay the same. Neda or Candice leaving is just a pointless week for me at this stage.
Right now, I want to backdoor either Drew or Shilpa. At first I had settled on Drew cause he barely talks to me yet claims to want to work together. However, I decided to take a step back and just look at his connections in the game. He's most likely good with the rest of season 9 but that may be it? Shilpa on the other hand is much more social and likable. I also learned that she has a final 2 with HEATHER. Thank you Nick for letting me know.
Nick, Sof and I got to talking in a group chat and discussed evicting one of them. The biggest concern is getting the votes obviously. Nick seems to want to save Candice over Neda but I'd rather see Neda safe. She volunteered to go up so I do kinda owe her one. Plus I trust her more than Candice and Miss Candiland is a much better pawn since Neda just trolls people lol. Both would evict Drew or Shilpa though so it isn't the biggest concern. However, some people have brought up me backdooring Sofia this week. Mike obviously wants it so I told him I'd consider it because if he had been picked for veto and won, I might have been able to trick him into using it LOL. Drew and Shilpa would obviously love to see Sofia leave too so they can gtfo. Candice also suggested it to me which is why I'd rather see her stay on the block because if shit hits the fan then her going is better than Neda going.
We settled on Shilpa because I WANNA BETRAY HER TWO SEASONS IN A ROW LAWL. Jk, but long term she's definitely the bigger threat and if I'm able to get ahold of Drew FOR ONCE then we can discuss us working together some more. The thing is I know Zach and Nick would rather have Drew stay because there might be a connection there. They want me to get rid of either Shilpa or Boog and it annoys me that I'm doing it for them. But it's the better decision so I won't go against the grain just so I can say I did what I want and ONLY what I want.
Getting the votes shouldn't be THAT hard I think. Sofia, Nick and the saved nominee would evict Shilpa and Mike and Matt SHOULD jump at the opportunity too. However, shit hasn't been going my way so far this week so just watch Shilpa stay and me get evicted next week. Heather is gonna hate me forever and ever lmao. Her and I do have a good relationship so if she seriously goes after me to avenge her BFF Shilpa then she can fuck right off thank you very much lol.

Thinking Things Through
So we had settled on Shilpa last night but obviously you all know that I would have preferred Drew. While at work today I thought through both options and looked at pros and cons for each. Shilpa and I seem to be good right now so I don't see her striking at me the next few weeks. While we obviously aren't as close as we were in S9 I do think she feels that I don't have many allies so me working with her is my "best" option. However, the girl is a big social threat and her relationship with Heather scares me as well as the likely trio with Keith. Heather is someone I enjoy talking to so for now if things stay good between me and them, then I'm all good.
Drew doesn't seem to be very connected and I don't THINK he's double dealing and making alliances all over the place this time around. However, when I look at my options for renom (Boog, Nick, Shilpa, Drew), Drew appears to be the smartest choice because we just haven't got to talking AT ALL. Compared to the others, he just seems inactive. And I have good relationships with the others. Luckly, once results were revealed we discussed if going for Shilpa was still the best decision. Crustine winning the veto may have been a blessing in disguise because now getting Drew out will separate that duo. Nick and I both agreed that we feel more comfortable with Shilpa over Boog and Drew, and Sofia doesn't give a flying fuck as usual lol so we finally came to a decision.
Speedy Speedy!
Dem veto results though lmao. Crustine frickin' SLAYED THAT! I was shocked. How is she a comp beast all of a sudden? The best part was everyone suspecting her of cheating. She's obviously denying it but it does seem like something Ash would do. Perhaps he gave her the link beforehand? I'm one of those people who likes to stay positive though so I congratulate her on doing well. With Keith nominated for the third straight week (lol) you'd think this would finally be his time to to go yeah? But no, it seems like Ika is getting the boot. The reason is ... because of Hayley and Brian. Brian is really non-committal about it all which is super annoying and Hayley doesn't like talking to Ika bahah. I wish she would see the bigger picture though but it kinda makes sense for her to vote out Ika. I think she wants the targets to stick around so she can continue slipping through the cracks.
Sofia winning was great because then people wouldn't be pushing me to backdoor her. I tried to make it seem like I wasn't expecting her to save Neda without talking to me first. People seemed to have bought it. I kept reassuring Neda that I would stop at nothing to make sure Sofia stays her so if she thinks I'm the reason she's safe then that's nothing but good news for me. Neda appears to be expendable to many people which is why I'm continuing to build trust with her. I did tell her a lot of info this week including a possible Shilpa backdoor and she seems like the type of person who might use that information against me welp. However I covered my tracks with Shilpa tonight as I told her that me potentially saying her name to people was just to see how they were thinking.
I knew I had to work fast to secure the votes for Drew's eviction and that is what I did. Everyone is in except for Mike. He wants Drew to stick around because he's obviously going after the 3 comp beasts. He's such an independent man lmao. What surprised me though was Mike and Matt being so open about who they want out. Mike wants me to nominate Boog because he's heard rumours of her working with Ash and Crustine. Could be true but I don't care. He's upset with me over nominating Drew but idgaf he can piss off. Matt wanted me to go after Nick because he thinks Drew and Shilpa are ALL ALONE in this game lmao. Is he for real right now? Then he mentions that a certain someone told him Boog might be with Ash and Crustine. LAWL that is so Mike. The best part was when Matt suggested a trio alliance to me and he totally hinted at Mike being the third. I ALMOST DIED lol. That's such a gross alliance but I can't just say no to it right? Oh well.
I decided to tell him beforehand because I felt he at least deserves that much. He started yelling at me a bit but oh well I guess I deserve that a bit.

Second Guessing
LOLOL I've been playing so sloppy tonight it's not even funny. There's a chance Drew might stay too LAWL. Sofia, Nick and Boog are solid. I can definitely see Matt going the other way because he's such a snake. I would be pissed if he did that though because he told me he would vote how I wanted. Why would he waste time in saying that and discussing working together if he was just gonna betray my trust? So he better not. And then there's Shilpa. This little weasel. I regret not nominating her now lmao. She wants to keep Drew. She lied straight to my face too. She told Nick this and Nick told me. If she does do it, I hope she's smart enough to tell me beforehand because the last thing she needs is to have me going after her (even though I already am). Neda has been told by Drew that she is the swing vote which seems like it might be true. Neda is so emotional tonight lol. She says she won't wavered but I didn't help much by pressuring her to evict Drew even though she already was. I just hope this works out because if Keith stays AND Drew stays then I'm in for a whirlwind of fuckery.

One For The Ages
This shall be a very interesting week to say the least. With Sofia and Mike as HoH, I obviously want Mike to get dethroned because he will definitely try and backdoor Heaven or Ryan this week. Ugh if only Ryan went faster he could have been HoH and we would have had complete control. Of course you can't get your way every week now can you?
With the goal being for Sofia to remain as HoH a plan was concocted and once again it involves Neda lol. Neda is apparently THROWING the BOTB which would mean her and Hayley would remain on the block. Neda would then get saved and Sofia would nominate Christine. Now this is a great plan, wonderful even. It was relayed to me by Zach which makes me suspicious because Zach, Neda and Sofia were in an alliance in season 7 and them getting back together wouldn't be that shocking tbh. I do think Sofia's loyalty goes to me before them though so I'm not too worried. It sucks to see Hayley nominated though - I truly do think she's underestimated as a competitor because she takes the slow and steady method lol.
What REALLY annoyed me tonight was that Neda would NOT tell me she is planning on throwing the BOTB. I'm already aware of the plan so I talk to Neda and she DOES NOT trust me enough to tell me. I gave her plenty of opportunities to just come out and say it but for whatever reason she didn't want to tell me. Obviously, I've kept secrets from her as well so I'm not livid or anything, but I will definitely keep this in the back of my head for later.
Now that we're all in the same house, you'd think some people I haven't spoken much with would message me but NOOOOO that is not the case. Ash and I clearly don't care about each other so unless one of us wins HoH we won't see a message from the other pop up on our aim. He did message Heaven out of the blue though. I've been worried the whole day wondering if he is planning on throwing the BOTB or not. Mike would not have nominated him if he didn't plan on throwing it. However, Crustine isn't nominated so there shouldn't be a reason for him not to try. He tried to broker a deal with Sofia through Heaven. He says he'll try to win the BOTB is Sofia promises to keep Crustine safe. LOL Sofia should definitely take this deal because the ultimate goal is for her to remain as HoH this week and she can decide later if she wants to honour the deal or not.
I'm sooo annoyed with Shilpa. She went to Candice and came clean about all the campaigning she did to try and keep Drew last week. Obviously, I'm not important enough to her so whatevs. It seems like Candice and Shilpa have somewhat made up now as Candice has her eyes set on Nick and Zach. Apparently, Nick went to Shilpa the week Drew was HoH and told her that Candice was trying to get her nominated as the replacement nominee. Nick says it's true so this is bad because Shilpa has turned Candice against him. Candice told me because she wasn't sure who was close to Zach and she didn't want it getting back to him nor Nick. Well ... it got back to them lmao. I figured, might as well let them know so they have another target in mind for the future. If anything, it made them want Shilpa out even more which is just music to my ears. My ultimate hope for this week would be for Crustine to go home because I think it would be much tougher for me to nominate her. Other than that, I'm cool with whoever goes because we have a lot of enemies to fry.

RIP Rachilpa
So I believe the votes have settled on Shilpa leaving tonight so yay. She was campaigning so hard to the point where people were just annoyed and turned off. I think at most she has 6 votes to stay. Crustine promised Sofia she'd evict Shlipa but then told me she was going to break that promise last night. If she found out the votes aren't there I believe she'll change her mind again. Ash was originally going to vote Shilpa out but he only does what Crustine does lol.
We have 5 votes to evict Shilpa for sure because of The Sinister Six alliance and Zach says Neda and Memphis are voting her out too. I knew they'd be on board because of their relationship with Zach so this is something I'll be keeping a very close eye on. I feel like when it gets down to the nitty gritty, Zach will bring Neda, Memphis, Nick and myself into a new group to go against the all powerful trio. I won't let that happen though
Interestingly enough, Brian is on board with evicting Shilpa and he decided before he found out where the majority was! Wonderful. He told Memphis that there's a "side" of the house forming that we aren't a part of. I'm sure it's just them bonding over keeping Shilpa with mutual targets in mind but still, I want them out. I want them all out lol. Thankfully, Candice says she's evicting Shilpa and that meant that Boog was doing the same so Shilpa should for sure be going tonight.
Telling Shilpa I was evicting her wasn't the easiest thing and I kinda had to be the one to let her know that the votes weren't there lmao. I told her that some people are lying to her just so she'd leave them alone (cough cough Neda) and that at the end of the day, I just couldn't trust her. She told me that she has the log of us discussing backdooring Sofia last week and that she hasn't told a single person (I'm sure she told Heather Feather) so that just pissed me off because it seemed like she was threatening me. She's a great player but tbh she tries WAY too hard and it's off putting.
With next week most likely being duos I'm nervous because I don't know if we'll be able to pick our partners or if it's going to be random. If I get stuck with Ash I'm going to blow my brains out lol. Ash and Crustine definitely need to be broken up and I don't care if I'm the one to do it lol. I knew this would happen again too - we never have the same interests and I HATE her choice of allies. I'd be happy getting Mike out too because the dude's just annoying af.
