We find the person who makes the season exciting. We are hoping to find very unique and very interesting housemates,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;Some individuals, who came from different parts of the Philippines, lined up as early as 10 p.m Friday.&nbsp;&ldquo;This is a big opportunity, even if I don&rsquo;t win at least I tried,&rdquo; Bornok Garcia, hailing the from Antique said.&nbsp;&ldquo;It is worth it. I wanted to experience what it&rsquo;s like to auditions. This is my first time,&rdquo; Jana, who lives jn Masbate, added.&nbsp;Meanwhile, Filipino-American Cochran flew all the way from California in the United States to try her luck.&nbsp;&ldquo;Not only would PBB be a fun experience, I think it is a great way to bring awareness to my mental health advocacy. There is always sacrifice whenever you have something you really want. I would say it is worth it,&rdquo; the aspiring beauty queen said.&nbsp;Along with their application forms, each hopeful carried with them vibrant dreams as well as an intriguing story.&nbsp;Aspiring P-pop idols Leoneth Cabarle and Kathleen Bulaon, for instance, shared the &nbsp;recent triumphs of Nation&rsquo;s Girl Group BINI pushed them to chase their own dreams.&nbsp;&ldquo;Sobrang nakaka proud girls. Doon naboost confidence ko. Someday, maging ganoon din,&rdquo; Bulaon explained.&nbsp;(I feel so proud of the girls. They boosted my confidence. Someday, I hope to be like them.)&nbsp;&ldquo;Yung hard work nila, nakaka inspire lahat gagawin para sa pangarap. Siyempre kami rin, ganoon gagawin,&rdquo; Cabarle added.&nbsp;(Their hardwork and determination to do everything it takes for their dreams is inspiring. We want to do the same.)&nbsp;Along with his crutches, person with disability John Mark Atienza, on the other hand, held with him a bigger mission.&nbsp;&ldquo;Bilang may mataas na pangarap gusto ko ipakita sa lahat hindi kami basta basta PWD, &#39;di porket may kulang or mga wala sa part ng katawan, hindi na kami magpapatuloy. Gusto ko hindi lang ipakita kung hindi ipahayag na hindi porke&#39;t may kakulangan, hindi na tayo nagpapatuloy,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;(As someone with lofty aspirations, I want to show everyone that we, persons with disabilities (PWDs), are not just handicapped. Just because we have missing parts of the body doesn&#39;t mean we won&#39;t fight. I want to not only demonstrate but also proclaim that just because there are shortcomings, it doesn&#39;t mean we stop moving forward.)&nbsp;Dyogi encouraged other Filipinos to try out in the next auditions. Apart from housemates, he said they are also looking out for new talents for Star Magic and Star Hunt.&nbsp;&ldquo;Lahat ng plano nagbabago as we see the housemates. Pag nabuo dumadating na tao, we calibrate. They say may napili na, [that&#39;s] not true. We will not spend time, energy, and money to mount if we already picked. Do not believe social media,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;&quot;All plans change as we observe the housemates. When a complete person emerges, we recalibrate. They say we&#39;ve already chosen, but that&#39;s not true. We wouldn&#39;t invest time, energy, and money in organizing if we had already made a selection. Don&#39;t trust social media.&quot;&nbsp;The ABS-CBN executive, however, warned the public to be wary of fake auditions both on-site and online. He stressed the schedule will only be posted on the official social media pages of PBB.&nbsp;PBB can be watched on A2Z, TV5, KapCha, IwantTFC, Kapamilya Online Live via FB and Youtube for livestream, in July.RELATED VIDEO:<ivs-player data-ivs-key="e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603" data-ivs-spid="3001339" data-ivs-vid="3023535"></ivs-player><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js"></script>
