So the first couple of days of conversation has been the normal meet and greet generic stuff. However, everyone, myself included, are all wondering about the whole twenty-person cast that is happening right now.
I'm also wondering if Hayley fell into a toilet and drowned, but we'll get to that later.
This first HOH competition was exactly what I needed to mellow out, think to myself, and really suss out who I think I would want to align myself with. I spent the whole day yesterday away from everyone to do that. I only hope it won't hurt my chances with anyone because I wasn't socializing because I needed time to organize my thoughts on the cast at large.
I feel like I have connected the most with Michelle, Heaven, Nick and Lane. They are definitely the people I like the most so far.
I don't really dislike anyone either, but there are some who come off a little snotty. I felt that way with Kathy, Benedict and Keith. Especially Keith. I don't know if it was a one time thing but that's how it came off.
Everyone else is alright, I haven't felt a real particular connection with the others, but I'm going to chock that up to the cast being overwhelmingly large.

Congratulations, Lisa!
One of the few people you don't like thought it would be a good idea to luckily win HOH and put you on the block? How do you feel?
-_-
Thankfully, Ben and I are on good terms and if he had won he would have put up Aaryn and Jordan. Keith and I are on opposite sides. That just leaves Kathy. Dear, caramel lovin' Kathy. Of all the people to have won HOH in all of House one, outside of Aaryn and Jordan, she was the one I least wanted to win.
Not to say I'm against working with the girls, but oh my God, I just had this feeling Kathy and I weren't going to see eye to eye and it started with her nominating me.
So what am I doing now? Talking with her. Connecting. Doing exactly what I said I was going to do from the get-go, because she is actually around. Am I faking it? Maybe a little, but if it's going to save me this round, I'm all for it.

Who the F@%& is this Ryan person? Ugh, I was so close. SO CLOSE.
However, after talking with everyone I guess I'm in a good position going up against Aaryn. According to Kathy Aaryn is everyone else's primary target. Topaz wants to keep me. Lane for sure wants to keep me. Benedict was surprised I was up on the block to begin with so hopefully he will keep me as well. Memphis I'm hoping will have my back but I'm not sure yet where his head is at. The question marks are Jon, Jordan and Ryan. That is way to many for my liking. Time to get my campaign face on.

Alright so I just had a spontaneous urge to PM Ryan. It's absurd because we haven't spoken, but I wanted him to know I'm not ignoring him.
So I asked that if he isn't going to use the veto on me, he shouldn't use it on Aaryn either. I asked for him to hear me out between now and eviction, because if I can't get his support to get me off the block, I figure I might as well try and get him to vote in my favor while I still can.
Then I have to get a hold of Jon and Jordan. Hopefully Topaz and Lane are already in my corner and trying to get me saved.
Speaking of Topaz, we have an amazing connection through Mother Nature, which I'll explain later because I'm tired. For now, wish me luck, I'm gonna need it.

I guess I'm not the only one who is getting "I don't know what I'm going to do" bullshit today. I mean, has Aaryn really done that much to deserve to stay over me? If she has than kudos to her.
At the beginning of this, she was the target, so if that has shifted, she did something right. I just don't appreciate being left in the dark until the very last minute, and that is apparently how this is going to go because not even people who AREN'T nominated (AKA Topaz) are getting information about what other people are doing.
I swear though, if I do survive this and I win HOH, I'm going to put a stop to that nonsense right off the bat. I wonder if the boys aren't just sticking together while the "girls" go at each other. That's something worth thinking about too.
I'm going to go on my rounds again, see if I can't get a straight answer from the guys.

I've just been told that I'm leaving.
Benedict SAYS he thinks it's because I'm seen as the bigger threat compared to Aaryn. Honestly, I don't know which is more bullshit, the fact that these assholes are keeping someone who they think is annoying and weak, or the fact that one of the people I thought for sure was going to vote to keep me ISN'T just to save his ass.
He's all like "I do like you more than Aaryn but you just got unlucky to be up the first round" and I'm all like "#thankskathy". This really blows. Apparently Kathy was the one who started the "Lisa's gotta go" train, but that is also according to Ben. He could just be lying his ass off to me and I wouldn't know the difference because he's just so suave at it.
