i hate that first stage you have where you dont know the housemates and are not used to them and you always have that little feeling of "this years rubbish they are all idiots" lol.... but then after like a week they all seem sooo dfferent,.

first impressions eh........

but yea, i was just picturing the opening night... cant wait...

[lily.]

Ok.. what was the question?

[Mike]

The first week in terms of who people like is always mayhem, personally i can't stop chopping and changing who i like until at least a couple of weeks into the series when we get to know them a bit better.

[Juelz]

yea^

and stropz, theres no question

[lily.]

Oh ok. I was confuzzled for a second there.

[Juelz]

LOL.........nvm

[Dan_]

Some misleading new topics without a question, a teapot made out of chocolate, so much in common.

I always like the opening week trying to figure people out.

[Juelz]

or how about an undermiming 10000+ posts member....

[lily.]

Undermiming? Is that when you do the box thing except you are actually inside a box?

[Juelz]

actualy, i dont know what it is...LOL

[lily.]

Ah.. then come and join me in my world. It's nice here. We have fluffy pillows.

Sounds great lol

There's always an initial period when my thoughts about the housemates are all over the place.

[Rory]

I agree with you Juelz. Last year I thought that the year would be horrible.

I wasn't right, apparently.

I didnt like the idea of Pete at first but then as soon as he fell down the stairs I wanted him to win

Lol true, it was quite obvious he would win from the start

I hate that feeling that you're always mixing up the housemates at first. It happened to me this year in Australia (they look so similar).

[GiGi]

its a bit chaotic in there the first night but i love after the launch show, to watch the live streamming and see how they are getting on! it would be great if they had a bb5 fight night style bust up on night one!!!!!!!!

[Matt]

Lol that would be funny. It took me a few days to get used to the housemates from BB7 (dont ask me why!)

[GiRTh]

I always take 2-3 weeks to get into BB. I always seem to be there on opening night cringing, gulping and gasping at the current set of idiot housemates. The first two week always tell us who are the show offs in the group, it also takes about 2-3 weeks for the true cliques to form and we take it from there.

[eyeonu]

I hate the early stages for that reason! The best you can do at the start is just enjoy the new house and stuff and you'll soon get to like the hms without realising it!

[Redmond]

Exactly, every opening night I always think "Most of this years housemates are awful", but two weeks in and you can't get enough of them (apart from Big Brother 6 where they really were awful, apart from Science).

My fave usually swaps around for the first week or so, but by the end of two weeks I've usually got a firm fave who I'll stick with through thick and thin.

[Michael]

i love when there is new housemates. its great getting to know them after a few weeks IMO.

[Crystal-Rose]

yeh i knw what you mean!
i hope we get a really good lot this year!!!

[mkdfan]

Last year at first I hated Nikki, about a week later she was my fave.

the first night isnt very good in getting to know the housemates. its usually really loud and on streaming u can't hear a word anyone says.

still its so much fun!

[Ruth*Star]

i know what you mean, for the first week or so its werid getting used to the new housmates.
