The Bachelors
Good day bachelor & bachelorette fans.
It has been a while since we’ve met up on this blog, but thankfully some
of us have kept touch through twitter - @marieevefast or on my spreecast channel
http://www.spreecast.com/users/marie-eveThis week ABC released the bachelor Bios for Desiree’s season, sending all bachelorette fans into frenzy as we spent hours looking over the pictures, analyzing faces and learning names! Imagine getting all that info in ONE night, and having to make a decision at the end of the night of who to keep and who to let go, without access to Facebook? Brutal.
So from Bios photos (I haven't seen spoilers) Bryden, Diogo and Micah are goners. Please no spoilers on my blog, I like to keep it spoiler free!!! Everything I post is 100% speculations at this point.
I’ve spent some time reviewing the info from ABC, and had a few chuckles, but have not been spoiled!!!! Please excuse the funky fonts, I had some HTML difficulties :p

Are there people out there who would admit enjoying to dress not nice? Like really just love it? Just curious. Also I hope Des keeps him around for final 4 because I would love to see Lube-Bock (Lubbock). Makes me think of a dark ale beer lubed up. But I’m sure it’s an actual place. Right?

Brad is
this wicked tall accountant who also DJ’s in the rain while eating peanut
butter and dreaming of roses. I feel
like he would have been a better bachelor than Womack the repeat with all those talents.

Brandon has a cross on his back, which makes me believe he
must have some religious background of some sort, winning point with our
favorite Sunday School teacher Desiree.
He looks as young as he is. Well maybe even more.

The fact that ABC still doesn't know how to spell achievement really boggles my mind... Moving on... Brian
cites The Notebook as his top 3 favorite movie which raises HUGE red flags. This guy is either a liar or gay. I don’t believe a word from his mouth from
now on. I’m telling y’all now, he’s
there for some reason other than Des and I'm not happy about it.
Smells fishy.

This boy
is already my fave! He looks flippant
with long hair and I have a feeling Des will agree! The fact that he’s from Salt Lake City as so
many Bach other bach peeps (Michelle Money, Jef, Diana, ...) calls into questions whether or not he knows them already and
how he got the hook ups with the show. I’m
sure Michelle Money would love to get her hands on that hair if she hasn't already. #frenchbraidingalldaylong. He loves playing game, talking and camping
trips. Say what? Actually say no more. I’m sure Des is already crushing on him!!!

So I made fun of Mr. War veteran before I saw his BIO and
feel terrible. I had predicted he was

Turns out Dan and I have a few things in common, mostly talking too much, trying to please and trusting too much. I HATE Dumb and Dumber, but apparently that’s more of a guy’s movie. No idea! I do love me some Leo on the side tho, he’s a great actor. I think Dan has the charisma factor going on for him and oh the beautiful CA tan. Hard to see him going home night one.

If you had JUST shaved your neck, you’d be the yummiest. Regardless, I’ll keep ya around as eye candy (above the neck). You don’t read, so you will never see this blog, or know about me dear Juan... But I'm telling you Des is thinking: "You are cute enough for me, but not smart enough... BUT you have enough attributes to make it a few weeks. Let's have a ball! (soccer ball).

It's in the bag! #winning. You are getting that first impression rose man.
ALSO if you missed it, turns out the host is Chris Harisson. So glad ABC still puts his picture there for all the confused peeps.

this is the last rose” *gasp*
“Gentlement,
if your name wasn't called, say your goodbyes”
Other quotes
we will hear this season:
“I JUST
CANT BELIEVE SHE DIDNT PICK ME. I thought we had something special.” (after 3
days of knowing each other)
“When we
kisses I could feel it”
“I wonder
what she saw in *insert name of someone bad*”
“How can
she keep him over me”
“Is she
gonna take that home?”
"You're
making the wrong choice"
“Theres a
guy in there that isn’t the same with you as he is with us”
“Someone
has a GF”
“He's not
here to make friends”
That's it folks, this is all I got!!!
Until after the Premiere :)
