Big Brother: The Summer Addiction Has Started

The first week recap

Big Brother: The Summer Addiction Has Started

It is officially summer, which only means one thing: Big Brother. For those of you who know what I am talking about, I applaud you. For those of you who don't, get with it. Here is my personal recap of the first week.

As always, the first week is a little uneventful. We are meeting the houseguests, finding the first HOH and evicting someone who probably doesn't deserve to leave. The weak and the strong are found, alliances are made, and usually everything falls apart after a few more weeks.

When first meeting the houseguests, I thought it was a weird bunch. There are a few famous siblings however. Vanessa (from BB17) and Cody's (from BB16) siblings are competing this season, along with 10 other new players. However, always expect the unexpected. Four houseguests are prior contestants: Nicole, James, Frank, and Da'vonne. I don't know how I feel about these veterans, as they were not memorable to me. In past seasons, they have had Evil Dick, Danielle, Mike "Boogie", Jeff and Jordan come back to the show. To me, those are true veterans.

This season, they are all split into teams, with each having one veteran and three newbies. As always, teams that are created by Big Brother, are not always permanent. The vets have aligned together, and the newbies are sticking together. That means (hypothetically) it is 12 against 4. However, those 12 will self implode.

With the three competitions that ran during the two-night premier, the oldest of the crew was evicted. Glenn couldn't handle the physical nature of the competitions, but who really cared who left this week anyway?

Here is my opinion and predictions:

Nicole will get into a showmance with someone, along with the former NFL cheerleader. I think it is the worst decision for the 12 newbies to stick together because there are too many of them. They don't know how to stay calm and collected. They will start to stray from each other, throw everyone under the bus, and eventually try to get each other evicted.

There are a few people I don't like already, and I can't figure out why. Paul, Jozea and Bronte give me weird vibes. However, Mama Da', Zakiyah, James, and Paulie will be my favorites of the season.

Let's hope it is a season filled with drama, backstabs, and more drama. Remember, expect the unexpected.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
