Housemates take pride in having made it this far in the game.
Diaries

Housemates took a moment to reflect on their time in the house as they opened up to Big Sister during their diary sessions this afternoon, sharing their thoughts on the game, the challenges they have faced and how far they've come.

Que who was the first to have his diary session expressed how proud he feels of himself for making it this far in the competition. He acknowledged that the house has been filled with big personalities, but despite that, he still feels a great deal of support from the outside world, something he considers a major achievement. For him, reaching this point proves that he has made his friends, parents and himself proud. Above all else, he said he is grateful for the experience.

Bravo B entered the diary room in high spirits, describing how marvellous he feels about making it to week nine. Reflecting on the ice bath challenge, Bravo B admitted that it was particularly difficult because it was his first time attempting something like that, and at one point he felt like he might not make it through. However, he joked that his biggest regret was not staying in the ice bath longer because he did not realise what was at stake.

For Ashay, reaching this stage in the competition is something he is both proud of and grateful for, especially considering the strong competitors he is facing in the house. He also reflected on being Head of House once again, explaining that while the role feels good, it comes with a great deal of pressure. As HoH, he feels the responsibility of ensuring that everyone remains focused on what needs to be done.

Meanwhile, Mmeli shared that he is extremely happy to have made it to week nine, saying the achievement means a lot to him. Speaking about the latest nominations, Mmeli admitted that he is not particularly bothered by being up for possible eviction. Instead, he is pleased that the people he formed alliances with have kept their end of the bargain. When discussing the housemates he nominated, Mmeli explained that his choices were intentional.

As the competition intensifies, these diary sessions offered a glimpse into the housemates’ personal reflections. With every moment in the house counting, each housemate continues to navigate the game while holding on to the hope of making it all the way.
