Last Friday Kuya took the girl housemates to an unusual field trip. He let Yayo, Gaby, Mariel, Ethel and Riza witness this year's Oblation run, an event done annually by the Alpha Phi Omega fraternity for almost a hundred years as an act to express freedom. The excited buzz of the students gave away their location to the Racing Goddess and once the blindfolds were taken away the women could only scream 'Oh my God! Oh my God!'when naked guys started running in front of them. The students gave them roses, a tradition that is part of the run. Riza, the admitted virgin, was speechless while receiving the flowers. Ethel, who was taken aback by the first pass got ready on the guy's second lap. "Oy, ang liit naman niyan!" Ethel jeered and got a lot of laughs not only from the HMs but from the Oblation Run participants as well. "Tingin ba nila nanay nila ako?" was Yayo's incredolous reaction after receiving the least flowers. Riza was actually still a bit shocked when they all got back to the house. "First sa akin na makita na putoytoy ng lalaki." she told Kuya and the girls, who found her statement hilarious.

After Ethel and Mariel's prodding the other day, seems like the Ultimate Pasaway took her task to discover the true Riza up another notch when she started courting Will openly in front of the Desirable Diva. During a midnight snack last night, Kuya suddenly played the song "I Finally Found Someone" and the words 'This is it!' pushed Ethel to bring out her Christmas present for Will. She gave him a dog tag necklace similar to the one she is wearing. "This is Janvier's before!" Will joked. Ethel tried to kiss Will but the True Lover emphasized that 'This is not it!'Ethel felt Will's hesitation to "make patol" was due to the fact that Riza was standing in the corner quietly drinking her coffee. She told Riza to go to sleep and everyone laughed at Ethel's crazy antics.

However, this was not the end of Ethel's "pangungulit" when Will suddenly found her lying on his bed. Will felt very helpless and he stomped over to the girls's bedroom to ask Mariel to 'get her friend.' Mariel though placed the bunch of roses from the Oblation Run in Ethel's hands to make the atmosphere more romantic. The other housemates were laughing so hard, there were tears in their eyes. Riza, then made an appearance in the boys's bedroom, pretending to carry Ethel off as a drastic measure.

With Ethel's provoking, will Riza really come out of her shell this time? Also where will Ethel's courting of the True Lover lead to?

Baron’s Don Juan charm becomes more evident as the days go by which perhaps makes him the perfect escort to usher Zara Aldana in. And having a beauty titlist on their midst doesn’t only notches up the thrill but also confirms their suspicions on PBB’s stellar line-up!

So far, Gabby dela Merced’s smashing entrance yesterday proves to be the most entertaining arrival among the surprise housemates as yet. It’s not because of lack of creative inputs though but more of a matching introduction to their individual personalities. Without much fuss, Zara shyly meets the rest of the group smiling at each one of them while they give her their names. Their curiousity towards her is not really out of surprise for their common reaction is to guess who will eventually complete the circle of celebrities this edition! Even Bench model Jon Avila comes up in their excited conversations!

Jen recognizes the latest addition in the house though from the latter’s previous pageants. It was during her teens when Jen first saw her, going as far as commenting how she had given her an1016_swim.jpg average rate for looking so gangly then. But of course, things have changed now that she has grown to become a pretty lady! With that, the former 26K girl invited her to go for a night swim, after she thoughtfully lends her a suit for the occasion.

Outside, Big Brother keeps on reminding everyone on her rule about wearing their lapels properly especially for those who are not in the pool. Later, Zara finally joins them in her own quiet way, with Megan and Marylaine taking time to get to know her. It looks like this newest girl-HM will take more time adjusting even with such rowdy and friendly company.

With Mcoy however, establishing rapport was not really difficult since most of them knew him from his stint as the lead vocalist of the rock band Orange and Lemons who popularized several OPM hits such as Pinoy Ako among others. Also, relieving the girls of the huge but cute jackstone star from their heads as soon as he arrived, paved the way for him to easily bond with them.

In fact, he patiently listened to Marylaine, Yayo, Rizza and Gab’s corny jokes and even gave them a gentlemanly verdict for their efforts to make him laugh. But it 1016_Yayo.jpgwas only Gab who made it on his list. As such, Big Brother asked the guys to pick a girl-housemate whom they want to save. Baron’s green quips was muffled but nevertheless redeemed Marylaine. Then Will took care of Rizza while Yayo got saved by Donald, thus, freeing them from their funny “crowns”!
