Cameron picks up the vibes

UK Housemate, Cameron, told Big Brother that he's excited about the new Task. 'I am feeling well rested. I feel really good,' he said. When BB asked him about his new Housemates, the Orkney lad had this to say: 'There's not one person that has been unfriendly. They're brilliant.' Cameron was in awe of how culturally diverse Africa is. 'It didn’t really cross my mind that there could be so many different countries in Africa,' he said, 'there's a very big input of culture' in the House.
BB then asked him which Housemate he found most interesting. He was quick to point out that Zambian beauty, Cherise stood out the most. 'I was playing cards with her, and she's got a fantastic laugh. She is very interesting - she showed me her photographs,' he beamed. 'I wonder who else...' he pondered. Desperately trying to find a name other than Cherise's, he blurted: 'Zein's an interesting guy. The first thing that struck me about him was his English accent.
He said it was because he had been at school in America, but I thought he'd have more of an American twang. His accent is the most English. He's a funny character – intelligent and serious.'
Cameron also picked up on tensions and alliances in the House almost immediately. He confided to BB that he thought Malawian Zein and Warona seemed to have a rift between them. 'They seem to be less friendly than some people in the House,' he said.
Cameron mentioned that Zein was agitated when Botswana's Warona mentioned her boyfriend. 'Zein was saying: 'We don’t wanna know about him!' It sounded as though he wished that they could be more relaxed so that there would be a chance for a liaison,' Cameron stated. He also sensed that 'there's something that's annoyed them about each other.'
BB further probed him about finding a companion in the House. 'In our House it was very clear that nothing would happen. There is no immediate tension between girls and guys. Everybody felt that there would be nothing further than a platonic relationship,' he said. In almost the same breath however, he muttered: 'I wonder if I am telling the truth.' Cameron stated that in the UK, no Housemate 'would want to say anything that would incriminate [him/her]'. It was clear to him that 'there's not going to be a hook up'.
He painted a romantic picture by saying that 'if out of twelve people from one continent, there could be a chance that one would find their life partner in the House, it would be wonderful.' Although he's not sure about the BBUK House, according to Cameron, 'there seems to be a greater possibility in this House'.
He added that 'It'll be a desperate shame' if BB instructs him not to tell his UK compatriots about his experience. He doesn’t want to keep this African trip to himself. He also wondered about how Gaetano was doing. 'He [Gaetano] and I won't get a chance to meet up and share our experiences,' he said sadly. However, Cameron assured BB that he would watch BB Africa and see who wins. 'The likelihood is that I won't go until the end; so it'll be really exciting to see whose left in the later stages of the [BB Africa] show'. He admitted that he was impressed at the transcontinental swap because it 'adds an extra dimension to the whole Big Brother experience.'
Excited about the Fantasy Feast Task, Cameron revealed that he had some unique ideas. He would like to do an animal mask and was keen on perfecting an elephant face out of the chicken wire that was supplied to them. He reminisced about some animal masks he bought in Burundi and gave BB citation about animal masks and their association with the spirit world.
Sounds like Cameron is enjoying his African adventure
