Shauvon was the one who kept calling him up.. I was thinking maybe she'd just go on the trip to the Great Barrier Reef, etc. and then decide to go home or not..

I agree that in the long run she will see the season and what she did miss.. and if so we'll see her on the challenge seasons.

That is almost what RW is about now, just to bring in people who will then go on challenges and be dramatic.

I've been through Kingsburg and Clovis :-) I made the trip up to Berkeley and back quite a few times before I5 existed. Also used to go on the "Raisin Circuit" of dog shows.. Fresno, Tulare and Bakersfield. We used to stay in Visalia and go over to Hanford to this interesting old Chinese restaurant.

I've stayed in Fresno and Bakersfield too and Manteca and crossed from 99 (later 5) to 101 on most of the east west routes. We purposely drove through Firebaugh once because of the name.. I worked with engineers and one was Bill Firebaugh. Sure enough, his uncle had been sheriff there and the town name came from their family name.

I also had random wonderings about the logistics of bungee jumping with large implants...

i do think they are too hard on parissa and i also think parissa is not thinking about others - there isnt just one bad character - its all who are flawed - except Cohutta of course - he is not perfect but boy does he have potential to be

i also hate how under uilitized Issac is being shown - even less than Cohutta - and there is SO much story there

Ya know, it may happen right away or it may not happen for years but someday that girl is so going to resent that so called boyfriend making her leave the chance of a lifetime. I would have told him if you care enough you'll wait for me and let me have this great adventure. I sure as hell wouldn't have left.

I excuse a lot of Parissa's behaviors as ok, since I think she is absolutely treated like crap by the roomies. BUT, if the previews are right she is looking a bit crazy next week!

I wanted to stick up for Parisa in the beginning but she does seem to have this compulsion for going after guys other girls are interested in or with. Is she trying to prove something to herself? I think she has a difficult, and troubling personality. I really kind of feel for her.

Interesting if you check out the cast myspaces' that none of the girls have dunbar as a friend (at least on the front page) Parisa only has Kelly Anne and surprise, new girl Ashli, no Trish or Shauvon, Dunbar or Issac , yes Cohutta. I do not usually check this stuff out but I was a little bored and Parisa kind of evokes dual feelings of both admiring the way she sticks up for herself and loathing for the way she conducts herself at times.

Another thing that surprised me about Shauvon's leaving is both Cahutta and Kelly Anne seemed to think that this is what she should do. Cahutta even agreed that he'd probably react the same way as the boyfriend. Honestly though I don't think Cahutta could ever use a voice as degrading and controlling as Shauvon's so called boyfriend. He sounds kinda creepy imho.

oh and just wanted to add, why would any of the girls have Dunbar listed as their friend on myspace? Even his girlfriend seemed to admit that he was a jerk to girls most of the time, especially with his temper. Honestly I thought the girlfriend seemed to bond with the girls in the house and almost seemed more sad to say goodbye to them then she was to say goodbye to Dunbar!

I'm sure Dunbar will cause plenty of drama on the post real world challenges though, and that's part of his appeal to MTV

I think she is someone very needy for a freind or relationship; very low self esteem.

I hate the way she is treated and love the she stands up to it as well.

And then want to shake her for some of the stuff she does. I don't know if it bothers me that she goes after the guys, I think the girls are so mean to her and I think they all think she doesn't have a chance. I hate that she goes after guys that treat her like crap, very desperate looking.

I have to agree that Shauvon's fiance came off as very controlling, but I have to say if my SO told me that they wanted to be on Real World I would do everything I could to talk them out of it!

It just seems like everyone ends up cheating if they are in a committed relationship when they go on the show. I don't know if the environment helps it to happen, or if they would have done it anyway but it would worry me! I would tell them if you want to 'go find yourself' or 'have an adventure' then go study abroad or join the Peace Corps or whatever, just don't go on Real World!

That's very true Mysti...I guess looking at it from that perspective I would probably have a problem with it as well. I just thought he came off very negatively with all the yelling and what not. It wasn't an "I love you but we both know that after spending three months in that environment things are going to happen that I truly will not be able to get over and our relationship will not survive". Although, maybe in his defense he said all this before she went. I guess my biggest issue is that she said he had pulled the controlling thing before and tried to tell her that she couldn't have a career if she wanted to be with him (career or me type of ultimatium). Although, maybe her view of a "career" was becoming a reality TV star or even something worse, who knows.

I would so tell that fiance of Shauvon's to jump in the lake. If someone is that insecure, there is NOTHING that you can do to make him comfortable, and it won't stop at her merely coming back from Real World. She'll be one of those women who have to "ask permission" to go out to dinner with girlfriends, and then he will show up halfway through just to make sure that is what she "really" was doing. (I have a friend who deals with stuff like this. She and her husband have had years of counseling over his controlling behavior.) She made a bad choice, IMO.

I agree with those who've said that Shauvon is gonna look back and regret this decision. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity, but instead she allowed her (controlling) boyfriend to dictate what she does. IMNSHO, she did make a bad choice. That said, I hope she's happy back in Sacramento.

I'm starting to feel so bad for Parissa. I saw the previews for the rest of the season and OMG, Parissa is not fat and for Trisha to say that, god she is a b*tch! And the spitting, I would give in to them and leave...but it doesn't seem like Parissa does...she has so much courage to stay and stick that out...or it is just stupidity, one or the other.

Checked out Shauvon's website...

She's single...ha...that is crazy. Gave up Australia to be with this guy...and they're not even together...

And Issac is going to follow her...man these people don't realize how good they have it

I read on another website that Issac comes back.
I doubt he would have been replaced or told not to return since his reason for going home was a death in the family.
But who knows?? I guess we will see soon enough.

Ashli looks very familiar. I've looked and looked but can't find her last name. I am sure she has been on another reality show. So far I don't really like her personality, maybe it's because of her actions with Dunbar. ick

I'm not surprised Isaac comes back. He didn't take much with him when he left.

In watching previews for next week, I hope that Trish gets sent home for pushing/hitting Parisa. I am really over how crappy all these people are to her. I don't know that she is one of my favorite people, but I enjoy her more than how shallow the majortiy of this cast is.

You know America does a crappy job of picking Real World cast I decided!

Boy, I whole-heartedly agree with you! I really don't even watch it all that much anymore. I'll only tune in when channel changing and nothing else is on. The only thing that still seems to always suck me in these days on MTV (and I don't know why) are the RR/RW challenges. I'm just waiting for the next one to show up. Last I heard it isn't until February! I was reading about it here. Lots of "supposed" spoilers though, so you can decide if you want to read it or not.

So last night I was watching "Run's House" (by the way I LOVE that show, going to look for its thread next) But they have commercials of Real World and it shows the two girls (Parisa and Trish) fighting and says one will get sent home.

My mother, who is staying with me during surgery recovery, and is a fan of the show, brought up a good point. She said she thought that one of them should have already been sent home, the girl that threw the cup at Cohutta (???) What we can't remember is which girl was that, was that Trish too? If so that girl has some serious temper issues. I just can't imagine, even in my 20's that when I got mad (and I got mad a lot) that I would run in to hurt someone or pick something up to hurt someone. I know stuff happens and you don't think, but it seems so natural to her when she is angry.

I am anxious to see the show and if she deserves it, for Trish to go home.
