Big Brother 12

This summer I have been obsessed with Big Brother 12. This is my first season I have watched of the show and I really don't understand why I didn't watch before. This season I watched because I had heard of Ragan Fox through his podcast. When I heard Ragan was on the show, I knew I would be watching. The thing I didn't expect was to find out he wasn't the reason I continued to watch.

My alliance changed in the first week to a girl named Rachel. She is a red head with hair extensions from Los Vegas who is not afraid to say what is on her mind. I first thought she would go home after week one, but then I realized that she had staying power. On top of that, she started a "showmance" with Brendon and they began to dominate the competition. She won two head-of-household (HOH) competitions and Brendon won one HOH as well as three power-of-veto (POV) competitions. When she won her second HOH, I cheered at my television. I actually screamed because I was so happy. It was the first time I had ever been that tied up in a television show before.

I was sad to see on day 41 that Rachel was evicted from Big Brother and her partner was evicted on day 55. The shock was that I almost quit watching. I still knew that Ragan was in the house, but I didn't care. My contestant for the year was gone. She had a crazy laugh and wore outrageous outfits. People hated her on Twitter and weren't afraid to say so, but I can't help but say I enjoyed my time watching her in the Big Brother house.
