It was down to the grind for the Housemates as the pleasantries and the getting-to-know-each-other session got behind them. The Level 2 Housemates, who were the losing House from yesterday's HOH games had Diary Sessions with Biggie. The impression in the House is that they are all up for Eviction this week following Biggie's prank about the fake Nominations.
Groovy was first up and he wasted no time in expressing surprise at meeting the Housemates from the Level 1 House. When Biggie asked him how he was feeling generally, Groovy said that he was enjoying the moment and taking each day as it comes. He said that he was settling in well and told Biggie that the fact that he was the first in the house was not lost on him.
Beauty was up next. She told Biggie that she was settling in very well and that the experience of being in the Big Brother House was real. She said that her journey to being a Level Up Housemate was unexpected. Adding to the unexpected was the revelation of the second house during the HoH games.
The third Housemate to grace the Diary Room was Khalid. He told Biggie that being faced with the prospect of coming into the Big Brother House was scary for him but that he challenged himself to conquer the jitters.
Dear Diary...
Ilebaye entered the Diary Room some minutes after Khalid. She told Biggie that she was glad to be in the House and that she was here to get the money. The Abuja native said that she gets along with everyone except for Christy O because she can't figure her out. She added that she found Kess a bit annoying too.
After Ilebaye, it was Cyph's turn in the Diary Room. He said that he felt like his experience had been ok so far. He picked up on a clash of egos among the Housemates and was getting vibes from his fellow Housemates but admitted that it was to be expected. Cyph told Big Brother that the Level 2 House felt smaller though he was ok with it since he has lived in small spaces before. He promptly added, "I love the art job!". Biggie jokingly said he would contact him next time for architectural tips.
Amaka was up next and she told Biggie that she felt that there were conflicting ideas in the House with minds clashing. She said that she was doing the best she could given the situation. Visibly emotional, she retold about her journey before coming into the house. She revealed that she wanted to study in America but had no money to do so. After expressing how badly she wanted to be in the House, Amaka also exclaimed that the Level 1 boys are hotter than the ones in Level 2.
During his Diary Session, Kess told Biggie that this was his year to win the money. He said that being on the show meant a step up in his life and a general improvement. When asked about the other house, Kess admitted that he felt more driven to win. Kess said that he is not one to be intimidated but is worried that there is more zeal to win in the other house (Level 1). "I am a child of grace, grace has followed me all of my life. I am here to win. we will do love and life after the show."
After Kess, it was Daniella's turn in the Diary Room. She jovially told Biggie that the House felt like home already. When Biggie asked how she felt about her counterparts, she said that the Level 1 housemates seemed a lot more agile and spontaneous and that they were outwardly expressive. Whereas with Level 2 Housemates, Biggie would have to see them perform.
In Pharmsavi's Diary Session, the multi-talented hustler recounted the moment he received the Big Brother Level Up invitation. He told Bigge that the Lockdown phase was cool and that he was happy to be here. He said that he is seeing the opportunity as a chance to showcase his potential. Pharmsavi has big plans for the future and hopes to leverage his Big Brother tenure to see them to fruition.
Phyna didn't mince her words during her Diary Session when she expressed her disapproval of Amaka. She told Biggie about the altercation she had with her but also said that she wouldn't let anything jeopardize her time in the House. After telling Biggie of her 4-year journey of trying to get into the House, she revealed that to her, "Big Brother na Jesus Christ on earth."
During his Diary Session, Bryann told Biggie that this show was a chance for him to showcase his abilities. Appreciative of the chance to be in the House, Bryann explained the dynamic in the house and how it has been working so far. Whether he was referring to how it fits into his strategy is yet to be seen.
Christy O was the last but not the least to enter the Diary Room. She expressed how happy she was to be in the house. When Biggie probed about her impressions of her counterparts in Level 1, she said that she saw so much speed from the Level 1 guys.
