The Real World Sydney: The New Girl

ORIGINAL EPISODES, WEDNESDAYS @ 10PM ON MTV

Fun times in the Real World House again! Well, not so much but at least Isaac is having fun with his new friend/girlfriend/sleepover friend Noireen. The two of them have no idea exactly what their relationship is or where it's going but they seem to really enjoy each others company. Isaac in particular is an entirely different guy when he's with Noireen and it's nice to see that he could be a good guy when he wants to be. To be honest, I didn't think Isaac had it in him to not only be nice but to smile and be happy. The guy has skulked around for the entire season and the only time we really hear him speak is when he's putting someone down.

This girl brings out the best in him and he should hold on to her as long possible. Sadly, he was a dumbass and brought home three girls from the bar the first night he didn't hang out with Noireen. I have absolutely no idea what he was thinking because they weren't even cool girls. Even more, why would he tell Noireen about it if he wasn't planning on anything happening with them AND he kicked them out. It was harmless and if she's not his girlfriend then it's good that he didn't do anything but he didn't need to say anything about it. True he was piss drunk which just goes to show why you should unplug all phones before drinking; drunk dialing is never a good thing.

The rest of the episode didn't contain too much drama (which is a bit disappointing since that's really why we all still watch). We did get to meet Ashli for the first time and you know what, she was no where near as bad as the producers made her look in the previews. I thought we were getting a new roommate who would be disrespectful to Shauvon and her pictures on the wall, that would come in and purposefully cause drama with Parisa, and who would purposefully try to get with Dunbar despite him being with Julie. In reality, she is none of those things and in fact tried to get to know Parisa who totally shut her out from the beginning. I don't think it's because Parisa is a bad person but rather she's trying to protect herself from being hurt by a new roommate. Sadly, this just won't work. I've been there before and totally shutting yourself out to a new person actually makes a situation worse and I think we've already seen that starting to happen. I feel bad for Parisa but at the same time she puts herself in situations where she's vulnerable to attack. I think she just needs to let lose, stop caring what everyone thinks, and also think before she acts. She has a tendency to do things without thinking about others feelings but then gets upset when they're pissed at her. Ashli seems like she could be an ally or at least a mediator between the old roommates feelings towards her and Parisa but the way Parisa is pushing her away will just make her an enemy instead.

As for the future, there are a few very interesting things we saw in the preview that I can't wait to see:
- Dunbar appears to cheat on Julie with Ashli!!
- Trisha physically hits Parisa and may get kicked off the show if Parisa decides she should leave
- Kelly Anne totally turns evil and decides to go after Parisa too
- Kelly Anne may be pregnant after sleeping with Cohutta this whole time
- Isaac has a thing where if he sees a black bird it means someone is dead and he does in fact see one. Whether its a real bird or not I don't know but it sounds as if someone in his life dies while he's on the show.

The future seems to be littered with intense drama and I can't wait to see how it unfolds. Until next week, enjoy the review!
