Getting to Know Rachel Better.. A LOT Better.

Once again, Rachel has quickly become the most annoying player in the Big Brother house. And even when the main drama in the house has absolutely nothing to do with her, she is still grasping to be the center of attention.

And just like last season, her obnoxious run of Head of Household wins (where she gets to choose who is up for elimination) continues. Let the self-centered proclamations begin:
"WHO WANTS TO SEE MY HOH ROOOOMMM???"
Ahh! My ears are bleeding.

I think another member of the cast said it best:
"Anytime anyone [says] 'Wanna see my HOH room?' I don't care if it is Rachel or if it is Jesus Christ, I could really give a shit."
Amen!

However, with the revelation of her HOH room, we do get a little more insight into our favorite chemist. Baby pictures, pictures of her as a teen (Pouf hairdo anyone?) a goody basket filled with rice cakes, beef jerky and oranges (huh?)

Unfortunately there are no chemistry text books or molecular model kits. Bummer.

We do learn during this episode however that Rachel has fake teeth. Yes! FAKE TEETH. "They make her more confident." Umm.. yeah. Yikes.

She does go on to have a little pissing match with the 'love of her life' about whether or not she should have plastic surgery. Brendon tells her he thinks she is beautiful, and his comments are met with eye rolling and big sighs.

In the diary room Rachel points out:
"Brendon hates botox, lip injections, anything that is plastic surgery... but he never complains about these" [Points to her breasts]
EWWW! Does that mean she also has fake tatas? Told ya we were going to learn a lot more about her this season.

Sheeesss baaaaccckk...

Just when I thought my Big Brother blogging career was over, I sit down to watch the new season of Big Brother 13 and what is the surprise twist this season?

Oh yes..

Wait for it..

RACHEL!

Yes, our very own "Chemistry Grad Student" Rachel.

When we last left her, she and the love of her life she met in the Big Brother 12 house were busy registering for mustard and a TV console after being voted off the show.

Well, the geniuses at CBS decided this season wouldn't be the same without her and they have brought her back. If this sounds familiar, it is. CBS has done this before, bringing Rachel back last season after she was voted off. Her entry back into the house was even the same..
"I'mmmm baaackkk bitcccchhhesss" as she walks through the door.
If you missed tonight's episode, it looked pretty much like the first 15 seconds of this clip:


Now, this season they are no longer promoting or titling her as a "Chemist" like they did during last season. I think they are pretty sure nobody is falling for that story anymore, especially after her scientific brilliance shined though last season. (Although I must note that Brendan is still being called a "PhD student" just like last season)

And although there were big twists thrown in by the producers this season, and even though our girl Rachel won head of household, this was STILL the best line of the evening:
"It is all well and good riding a banana all night, and then you get a shot of whipped cream in the face.. " followed by weird mule-like braying laughter
But if this is any indication of how the season is going to go, bring on the blogging!

And welcome back Rachel!
