Sitting down at the Eviction Ceremony I could only hope that the vote was read 4-2 or 5-1. I was really only concerned about how Eve was going to place her vote this round and if Barack was going to use his extra vote to try and save Kathy from going home.
The vote was 5-1 though and Kathy left. I do feel bad for Kathy because I do think she played the best game she could have minus the fact that she never really opened up to me about her game. Instead she chose to run to Barack and kinda play his game and I think that's why she left the house. She started off strong and independent, but eventually looked like Barack's sidekick.
Now were down to the Final 8! I'm feeling pretty good about my position in the house because I feel like I stand in a good spot with almost everyone except for Barack and even then I don't think he will go after me if he wins Head of Household.
However, everyone was called into the Living Room after Kathy was evicted for a special announcement. Penn told us that this would be a Double Eviction week. I was not happy. lol. This pretty much could ruin any preconceived plans I had going into this next round.
Penn revealed that after our Head of Household Competition the person who won must make their nominations right away. Then this would be followed by a Veto Competition where the person who won would also have to give their decision right away. On top of all this the person who is evicted will then get to decide which 3 people are going on the block. Then whoever wins the Power of Veto must use it to save one of the three nominees, leaving us with only 2 people on the block to vote for.
On top of everything else Chris had the option of being safe from the first round of play or the second round. He decided on the first. This now has my head spinning and my stomach turning. I don't see how I get off without being nominated for one of these two rounds. The fact of the matter is now if Barack wins Head of Household he can't nominate Chris to leave which puts me as his #1 target. So everything I have been working on with him is really for nothing.
I also don't like how if you win Head of Household you're pretty much guaranteed to go up the next round because the person you nominated will hold you responsible for their eviction and put you up. So its a lose lose no matter what for me right now. If I throw the Head of Household Competition I risk being nominated by Barack and if I win it..I guarantee going up for the second round. O
Overall, I'm really unhappy right now with the game and this was the wrong twist for me at the wrong time. If I get past this week then I've not given myself enough credit for the game I've played here. So will see what happens, but I'm kinda pessimistic right now. lol.
