It's that time of year again, Bachelor Nation. Get ready for your weekly reality TV binge on Monday nights. Gather your girlfriends and prepare for the best season yet which features, in my opinion, the most controversial person to ever be featured on "The Bachelor" empire - Nick Viall.

As with every year, I try to predict who will win based on the first episode alone. During the last season of "The Bachelor", I correctly predicted that Lauren B. would be the winner, and I am attempting to do the same this season. Usually I pick a few favorites by the end of the episode, but this year as soon as I saw this certain contestant, I knew that I was betting on her. This year my prediction is...

Vanessa!

From this episode, she seemed to be one of the most down-to-earth women. The multilingual, natural beauty comes from a close Italian family. She is a special needs teacher from Canada. Unlike many of the usual introduction videos made for each woman, hers was very casual and basic. She didn't try to be funny and impress the viewers, and she did not dress up in elaborate outfits or wear tons of makeup for the camera.This realness in the world of fake reality television impressed me.

To assure myself of my prediction of who will receive the Final Rose, I analyzed the episode as it went on. Vanessa seemed to get a decent amount of screen time but not enough to make us suspicious. For example, Corinne and Liz got quite a bit of screen time making it obvious that they will be on for at least a few weeks. Corinne specifically seems to be the one who will portray the "villain" that every season has. Vanessa was shown enough so that we would not forget her, but she also was not the center of attention.

Another important moment is when the women walk out of the limousine and introduce themselves to the bachelor for the first time. There were women who used props such as a camel, brought famous guests such as Neil Lane, and made terrible jokes such as presenting Nick with a hotdog because he will be a wiener in the end, not a loser. To me, less is more in this initial meeting, and Vanessa seemed to believe in that as well.

I'm excited to see how this season will play out and who will end up being proposed to during the Final Rose Ceremony. From "The Bachelorette" to "Bachelor in Paradise" to finally being "The Bachelor", I truly hope Nick can find love on his fourth attempt. Hopefully my prediction comes true, and he finds a happy ending with Vanessa.
