Profile
Name: Awet Muhammed (21) Current Residence: Vestavia Hills, AL Occupation: Football Coach Personal Claim to Fame: Probably would have to be picking myself up from an injury that ended my journey to play in the NFL. I thought my life was over, but I picked myself up, dusted myself down and turned my attention to making sure other kids have the dream I never lived. Inspiration in Life: One thousand percent my mum, after my father died when I was little, my mum picked up all our stuff from my home in Eritrea and moved me and my brothers over here to the States. We were basically living off nothing, she was working like three jobs just to keep us afloat. She's an inspiration to everyone, not just me and my brothers. Hobbies: Football, Soccer, Basketball, Baseball, Basically any sport under the sun!(Chuckling). Pet Peeves: People who are not grateful for the lives they have been given and ignorantly complain when other people are living without food, water and a roof over their head. 3 Words to Describe You: Athletic, Charismatic, Honest. Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: I'm actually going to go ahead and say Jeremy Collins here. I'm definitely not going to be the most strategic out on the island, but I'm definitely a personable person. The humility I've learnt from growing up here after immigrating from Eritrea has taught me to be a better person. Reason For Being on SURVIVOR: For the money, man! Why else?''(Chuckling). ''I really want to give back to my mum who still has it hard living on her own and not really having that stable of an income. The amount of love, time and effort she has put into moulding me into the man I am today can't be rewarded by any amount of money, but at least it's something! Why You Think You'll 'Survive' SURVIVOR: I've lived and gone through a lot in my life thus far, and Survivor won't have a touch on the experiences I've been through. I'm confident I can deal with the elements due to my mental resolve and my physical strength. Why You Think You'll be the Sole SURVIVOR: I think that I will get along with most people on the island. I can be one of the quote en quote "lads" but also relate to the older people and the women on the island. I'm pretty charismatic and I think that if I can just lay low and not draw attention to myself, I think I have a pretty good chance.
