The Real World Sydney: Second Fiddle

ORIGINAL EPISODES, WEDNESDAYS @ 10PM ON MTV

Shauvon left!!! What is this girl thinking? Great, she's in love. But what really is the point in being in love with this guy David? I've said it so many times before and I'll mention it again one last time tonight, you can't be with someone who doesn't let you live your dreams and your life. David refuses to let her experience life and pursue her passions. True, the real world house isn't the ideal place to be when you're in a relationship but the fact is that he isn't just upset about her choice to be in Sydney. She mentioned numerous times that he doesn't want her to work (which is something she wants to do) and many other specific things she mentioned over the last few episodes. He's controlling, insecure, and unwilling to allow her to live her life. Does this sound like someone you want to be with? Sadly, Shauvon left decided it was and she left Sydney to go home and marry David.

Meanwhile, the rest of the roommates left for a one week work vacation. Contiki sent them to the Cairns in order to go on one of their vacations. This was supposed to give them a perspective on the reality of the vacation packages and what they should look like. They all seemed to enjoy the trip and the Great Barrier Reef was really cool. Parisa is up to her old tricks again this time messing with Kelly Anne. Parisa is well known now as someone who will always go for a guy that happens to be involved (at whatever level) with one of the other female roommates. As Kelly Anne spent a night out dancing with a bartender (I'll talk about her situation with Cohutta in a second), Parisa immediately cut in to dance with him the second Kelly Anne walked away. Parisa is real sketchy and definitely not cool. She needs to chill out, mind her own business, and get her own life.

Now, for my favorite part of the episode, the Kelly Anne and Cohutta relationship. FINALLY we get some of the goods one what's been going on. Apparently, they've been hooking up and sleeping together for weeks now despite us not seeing anything about it. Kelly Anne though decided to speak with her ex-boyfriend Sutton on the phone and also to read some letters he wrote. This didn't go over well with Isaac and Dunbar who tried to convince Cohutta he should cut everything off before it gets messy. Cohutta refused and I think if he can control himself then it might be alright. Unlike some other people in this house, Kelly Anne never played any games. She didn't tell Cohutta there was a future for them when there wasn't or that he should expect anything in particular. They just started hooking up and never even said if they liked each other. Cohutta knows the deal though, he knows that Kelly Anne isn't the most stable relationship girl and he's taking it all very easy. Although he appears to be getting attached at least he's not deceiving himself about the reality of the situation.

After Kelly Anne spent some time flirting with guys on their trip she came home and realized that she never really should have spoken to Sutton because he did treat her very badly in the past. She fully admitted that she didn't want to get back with him and that she truly does like Cohutta. I think that although she thinks that if she likes him then after a week she won't, this isn't really the case. They've been hooking up for a while and still likes him, which is why I think it appears that at the end of the episode she finally decided to go for it full on. She told Cohutta she liked him and he did the same. This could be a very big thing as the episodes roll on. I think these two are the coolest people in the house and it would be great to see them happy together.

Next week we meet the new roommate and it seems she's not going to be all that nice. I can't wait to see her bring the drama and I would love for her to put Parisa in her place. Until next week, enjoy the review!
