A few things about Vienna, Kasey, Michael, Holly, Ella, Jackie, Ames, Blake and Ben.
I am not a mean person by nature, but watching Vienna cry after she was eliminated by Michael and Holly, made me laugh like nobodies business. I have never hated someone the way I hate Vienna. I think she's a manipulative and ultimately petulant child. I'm ecstatic that her and Kasey did not win.
I kind of knew that Michael would split the money with Holly. There was very little doubt for me because I knew that he loved her quite a bit, but I was slightly unsure of how his feelings about her engagement would mix into the final decision. I sincerely hope Michael moves on from Holly and that he finds someone who truly won't run away from his love.
Ella. Oh Ella. During the show she was my favourite. I sat with bated breath every single rose ceremony, praying her name would be called. I had read about her getting plastic surgery done and I was so disappointed. I thought she was incredibly beautiful. Seeing her on the finale made me super super super super super upset. I don't think she looks half as beautiful as she was before. I understand that people criticize themselves the hardest and maybe she wasn't pleased with how she looked, but she definitely looked better before the surgeries.
Jackie and Ames. My heart is broken. Everyone who saw what happened with Ames leaving the show for her, knows how upsetting it is to hear that they're not together. I feel really bad for her but I commend Ames for realizing that she wasn't the one for him and not leading her to believe that she was. I think in time Jackie will realize that she's better off.
Blake and Holly. I'm happy they made it last. It sucks Michael got hurt, but they seem so genuinely in love that I hope it works out for them.
All in all, seeing the new bachelor (aka Ben Flajnik) made me a little excited. I can't be the only one who thought he looked a little like Rafael Nadal. I didn't watch Ashley's season of the bachelorette so I don't really know what happened on the show, but I know I definitely did not like that she led him on to the point where he was down on one knee. I feel like Ali did the best job of it. Telling Chris up front that she wasn't going to go on the final date with him because it wouldn't be fair to him was the greatest way to let everyone know who she picked. Why make a person go through the motions of picking out a ring and proposing, if you aren't going to say yes. I hope Ben finds the person he's looking for.
My life will now proceed to be super drama free. Yay.
