So I just saw Ruthie tonight at my college. She was really nice and down to earth. She is so tiny! I am 5'2" and petite but she is smaller. I had tweeted her about seeing her at my school, and she started out the lecture, asking if anyone named (my name) was in the audience and asked if I got her tweet? And then talked a little bit about twitter and how she doesn't really know how to do it but is trying.
It is Diversity Day at school, so the main part of the lecture was race and diversity, homosexuality and then she talked about alcohol at the end. It was really interesting and she was well spoken, funny, open and really welcoming to all of us.
I asked her about the challenges and she was saying they don't ask her back all the time because she doesn't cause drama and doesn't get in fights, and that she only likes it for the competition and the locales. She said they used to be a lot of fun because they let them leave the house, but now they can't and that it makes everyone more paranoid. She jokingly said she got screwed over by a couple people on the Duel 2 and joked she was considering if she should go on her next one and just stab people in the back.
She also talked about alcohol on the challenges and that they get a cap now because people were drinking too much and going through too much alcohol. She said that production would put the alcohol on the counter and it would be gone because people would hide it in their bags, and that they only give them $1500 a week of alcohol.
Also, from her cast she only talks to Colin, and he lives in Jordan now and Spain before that, is happy and moved out of the US because Bush was reelected president.

That is very cool you got a personal shout-out. :) Wasn't Katelynn at that presentation too? Did you hear her speak?
No, according to Ruthie's twitter, Katelynn and JD did a lecture with her yesterday at Southern CT University. It was always only Ruthie advertised, (our school could probably only afford one speaker, we don't get many of these Real World people, the last one that I know of came was Danny from New Orleans back when I was a freshman in 2005.)
Our school has a large gay community and I would have loved to see Katelynn and I think she would have been really informative to people about the transgender community because our school could use a little education on that (I'm a Women's Studies Major and even in those classes there is a lot of misconceptions and ignorance.) Maybe they can get her in the future.

Oh I see. I was just going by one of Katelynn's Tweets where she said she was speaking with them. Must have been the wrong day, but I'd love to see her speak sometime too.

Are you going to go?
I think the college I went to had some RW/RR people (can't even remember who) do a speaking engagement there one time, but I didn't go because I didn't have anyone to go with and didn't want to be on campus at night alone. I wasn't sure how long it was going to last, either. My brother got lucky and some of them came to his high school back in the day, but he's not into the shows. So he didn't know much of what they were talking about and couldn't remember much to tell me.
I'm sure Theo is doing his standup routine, but as a fan of the show, I think it would be cool to go. You can give us a report, too, if you do!
I'm hoping he hits up good old days (the local bar) afterward, Yung Joc performed here last year and went afterward. And the drummer from Seether was there a couple of weeks ago.
I'm so exciteddddd!!!
PS. 13 cent beers from 10 to 12 tomorrow...oh yeah...he's goin. LOL.
Does Glen from RW LA keep in touch with anyone else from the cast BESIDES Beth A.? I remember him mentioning that he pretty much still hates Beth S. in his SpeakReality interview and expressed he was really happy that the Challenges showed Beth S. as "what she really is". He also said he would love to do a Challenge and doesn't know why BMP/MTV won't put him in one.
As for Beth A., last i heard about her was in the RW Awards Bash when she revealed that she's now married to a man. Which is a huge change, considering how back in her season, she was a lesbian.
I know Beth S. obviously still keeps in touch with Jon, don't know if she still keeps contact with Tami. We all saw Jon and Irene together in the RW Awards Bash so i think they still keep contact too but Irene is no longer married to the guy that she left the house for.
Aaron and Dominic came out of there best friends, and i think Dominic said in an interview once that Aaron is still his good friend.
As for David E., if he doesn't talk nowadays to Tami, at least they're civil since they buried the hatchet in the first Reunion show. But i would guess he still hates Beth S. for calling him a rapist since he said that he takes responsibility for the incident but does not tolerate being called that at all.
[QUOTE=salt&vinegar;137725]I wonder what Cory and Pam, from San Fransisco, are doing. I assume that Pam is still a doctor.[/QUOTE]
Last i heard, Cory is a Spanish teacher and was supposedly gonna be in the Inferno 2, but turned out to be a false alarm on the rumor mill. As for Pam, i think she's still a doctor and she's obviously still married to Judd and has at least 2 kids with him. If i remember the Pedro movie correctly, in their cameo Judd was holding their first kid in his arms while Pam was a couple of months pregnant.
I just discovered this thread, read through it all, and I have to ask: what is the story behind the Rachel/Veronica fall out? I was totally unaware of it. I'm sure it's been written about at length in another thread; is there any way that someone could point me in the right direction?

Nobody knows, as far as what the fans have been trying to dig up and both Rachel and V have kept whatever it was more secret than who was the second gunman on the grassy knoll.
[QUOTE=samara;138142]Thanks for the info, Francid![/QUOTE]
Glad i could be of assistance, though i don't feel like i gave you "info" on that regard since the only thing i could dig up is that nobody knows exactly what happened between them. Rachel avoided a lot of questions regarding relationships during the Duel 2 reunion. I don't know if V will be invited to the Ruins reunion, but if she does make it, maybe she'll be more open to answering if the question pops up during conversation...
[QUOTE=OtherPplsDrama;138175]Oh no! Well I hope you feel better Teej. :([/QUOTE]
Thanks, I really want to but it involves extra walking back and forth tonight...don't know if I'm up for it.
[QUOTE=tjhallow;138159]Don't know if i'll be making it to see theo...im real sick guys.[/QUOTE]
But, but...we er...wanted pictures!
Hope you are feeling better soon.
