Hannah Brown - Bachelorette 15 - Discussion #2

I try to tune in on all her IG lives, even her devotionals. (Part time Catholic here.)  She shares her bach/ette experience in those. I like the behind-the-scenes and knowing what she learned from them.  I'm not really getting why some people would say she's immature whereas I see her as having a child-like wonder and playfulness. We can all still be mature and act silly at times. Why can't Hannah do the same?

Such a good post, @2ndcampbell! I have the biggest soft spot for Hannah. Watching her come into her own in the past year has been an added bonus.

Hannah is the type of person you can't help but like and root for.

Slightly OT here, but love the "part time Catholic" description. One of my best friends and I just had a cross country phone call discussing how parochial school and the nuns kind of prepared us for all the "shall nots" we currently must obey. LOL. Back to Hannah, I too love the playfullness she has.

I can relate, this made me laugh! Thanks!

I definitely know all about the “shall nots” and I still fold my hands in front of me when I sit at a table for too long. But, how would we be grammatically correct today without the nuns? I was with them all twelve years. Didn’t escape till college. Throughout every day of my career, I’ve been so grateful for their teaching and standards. They were tough but, worth it, IMO.

I went through 12 years of Catholic school too and so did my husband. The nuns were tough but I agree they were def worth it . We sent our 3 sons all through as well. Best decision.

@Jolena
I may not always agree but, I always get where you’re coming from and now The Catholic school commonality probably tells us why. 

I’m actually just learning to like Hannah. Had no respect for her at all after her season ended. Found her to be a dedicated and accomplished dancer though I wish she’d had one of the Chmerkovsky brothers or Derrick (who no longer appears on the show) to really provide her with the best choreography. 

I think this is a difficult time for Hannah, trying to figure out what to do next and her management company hasn’t shown anything, much as I expected. Without more support from them, she may as well leave LA. All IMO.

Thanks all! It nice to find a reason to smile/laugh. I agree the quality of the education was tremendous and we were "encouraged" to let it all sink in.

As a NYC Catholic school teacher who fears that Covid (and resulting unemployment in the families we serve) may finally sound the death knell for a lot of our schools, it is heartening to hear such positivity about a now-endangered institution.... ((( )))

Have faith... I think things are going to turn around very soon, and it'll be stronger than ever

Hannah was on IG live last night with Matt and Tyler. It was pretty good, but you can tell Tyler and Hannah are being careful about what they say or how much they say. There's some clips of it on https://www.instagram.com/everythingtylercameron/?hl=en And she also said she would have the whole live up tonight if anyone is intersted.

(((hugs))) Stay safe and healthy. I want to believe we're towards the end of this pandemic. We'll have a new normal but it'll all work out.
