7 Reasons Why I Love 'Big Brother'

Summer is everyone's favorite time of year. Vacations, warm weather and most importantly no school. Summer also means that Big Brother comes back on. Big brother is a reality-TV show where contestants compete against each other for $500,000! The catch? They are all in a house together for three months with televisions and microphones catching their every move. House-guests compete each week for the power of the house to nominate two people for eviction. It's a highly addicting show if you ask me. It's been around since 2000 and my family and I have probably been watching it since then. Here are seven reasons why I love Big Brother:

1)The Competitions

House-guests have to participate in a few competitions between H.O.H(Head of Household) P.O.V.(Power of Veto which can take someone of the block) and other competitions to seal safety for the week. The competitions are so intense but fun to watch.


2)The Evictions

Each week two house-guests are put up for eviction. Later on in the season they even sometimes do a double eviction. It's sad watching my favorite house-guest leave. But such a relief when the one I don't like gets a unanimous vote.

3)The Live Twitter Feeds

I recently came across a few Big Brother Twitter pages. @BigBrotherLeak and @CBSBigBrother When the show isn't on the page is filled with juicy gossip of what is going on in the Big Brother house!

4) When They Bring Back Old House Guests

As I said earlier my family has been watching Big Brother since the very beginning. My favorite thing is when they bring back house-guests from past seasons. Sometimes they'll have them host a competition or even play in the game! There isn't much better than drama from bringing back the ghosts of Big Brother's past.

5) The Alliance

Every season there are alliances that work and there are alliances that just completely fail. People join multiple alliances so they can play both sides of the house. But sometimes people don't even have alliances and they're call floaters.

6) The Diary Room

The Big Brother House has something called the Diary Room. This is where house-guests can talk about the other house-guests they don't like or reflect on the competition they just played in. Sometimes house-guests come to cry because they miss home.

7) Expect The Unexpected

Big Brother's motto is 'Expect the Unexpected' Literally anything can happen in the house so be prepared for anything. There has been a twin twist, America's player and this season they have changed the game to playing in teams! There's always something new happening each week.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
