Week 9 Diary Room

[Zach Rance]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

I was over-the-top-excited to find out that I survived the eviction, that Victoria was evicted by her own allies, and that I've made it to the FINAL FOUR BABYYYYY!!!! I am sooo freakin' lucky, this is AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING.

Ever since the Frank eviction, all the evictees have been my allies:

Cody - #teamguapo
Eddie - #outlaws
Meg - #blackscallion
Nick - #teamtwink
Victoria - #darkhorses

I know the only reason I'm still here is because people think that I'm a pushover and that they will beat me in the comps and in the finale if I make it there... but guess what bitches? #PURPLEZACH is still here and he is loyal to NO ONE. I will do WHATEVER I need to do to secure my spot in the final 3, so really I'm not loyal to any of these ladies.

I'm going to continue to appear to be weak and dumb and clueless, but really this week I am going to turn it up in these competitions like never before. I hope to blow these bitches' games up and get to the end of this game. I think they've all severely underestimated me, and they will regret letting me in to the final four I can guarantee you that.

PURPLE ZACH IS HERE BABY AND YOU ALL BETTER WATCH THE FUCK OUT BECAUSE I'M COMING FOR ALL OF YOU.

I'm so pumped up right now I am ready to SLAYYYYYYYYYY these bitches. I'm the last one to get picked off and I'm not gonna let them get away with it. I have all my allies on jury so I am an actual threat to win.

It's almost Week 10 baby!!! My ass won the most important HOH of the summer and now I'm sittin' back relaxin' in the BB pool while these ladies cannibalize each other.

*eats some popcorn*

I feel like I have been used as a pawn multiple times now, and kept safe because I am not a threat of winning anything. Well... when I really need to win, I can win. And I think people were quite surprised at how I'm stepping it up in the comps.



Perhaps I am not as weak as everyone thinks? Perhaps my #PURPLEZACH UTR INV persona was strategy? Hmmmm... LOL!

Clearly these dumb bitches brought me to the final four thinking I would be an easy person to get rid of. That's probably why they saved me for last after they picked off my friends and allies, one by one.

I kind of wanted to throw the veto this week so I wouldn't risk losing any jury votes by picking sides in the lady-fight. That came back to haunt me because lo-and-behold I got my puzzle completely correct. Sadly, (at least for Candice or Nicole), I took my sweet ass time with the comp (I even took a little bathroom break) and so I lost the tiebreaker with Jackie.

While Jackie is probably the person I least wanted to win the veto out of the three, it's all gravy because I'm safe and that's all that matters really.



I really don't think anyone will bring me to the final two at this point. I've been a total underdog story and the jury is literally packed with all of my friends and former allies. It would be a death-sentence to bring me to the finale (in my own humble opinion).

Buttttt... that is not stopping me from playing up my suckage to all the ladies. "I have no chance at winning this game." "I've done nothing all season long." And so on... Hopefully they buy it, but who knows. I have no idea actually how the jury sees me or how the other finalists see me. It's all about perception and so even if in my mind I'm the favorite to win this thing, the reality might not match that.

At this point I'm torn on who I want Jackie to evict. I'm sort of happy she gets to get the blood on her hands because that means she's probably going to lose a jury vote there (while I can sit back and sympathize with the person who goes). Boom!

Jackie is a tough competitor so I will have to be on my A-game in the final HOH, but seeing how she has the personality of a door-nail, I think I'm actually kind of cool with her being in the final three with me at this point. Hell I may even bring her boring ass with me to the finale just because she has no personality and I seriously doubt she has the types of relationships I have with the people sitting on the jury (go me!!!).

Still... it's kind of shocking to be in the finale with the one person I was immediately suspicious of, and never aligned with... in fact she was my target this entire game. I mean Jackie nominated me and Eddie in the BB Mini (the first comp of the season) and ever since I have not wanted to play with her.



And here I am considering taking her ass to the very end... That's BB Recycled for ya!

Still, reflecting on this whole thing, I'm so happy I made it as far as you can go in the game. If I get evicted in the final 3, at least I made it to the end of this game, and that is a feather in my cap no matter what. I think I've proven that I am a strong player. I came into this season as the biggest target, being a returning player with a history. I made it to the finale and was the runner-up in AS3, and now I'm set to be at least 3rd place. I think I'm a much better player than I think I even give myself credit for. I've proven that I know how to make it to the end of the game, now twice. So really at the end of the day I'm so happy to see how far I've come and I'm really glad I decided to play again and show my stuff.

I hope the viewers like me. I think I've had a pretty amazing ride in here, and the fun part is that it's not over. There's still lots of game left to be played in this final round and I'm excited no matter how it turns out. I'm a competitor and I'm here to fight my heart out. I have no allies but I have myself and my brain and I hope I can weasel my way into the finale once again!! Wish me luck yall!
