 Name (Age):  Alexandra “Alex” Lopez (24)

 Tribe Designation:  TBD

 Current Residence:  Boise, ID

 Occupation:  E-Marketing Representative

 Personal Claim to Fame:  Affording myself to get into college. It was not easy because my parents died in a tragic railroad accident after my first birthday. I lived in an impoverished orphanage and my sister and I were forced to defend ourselves. I had to find odd jobs such as working at fast food restaurants, malls, and even as a maid. By nineteen, I obtained all the money that I needed to pay for my local university.

 <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">Inspiration in Life: <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;"> My older sister, Carly, has always been the mother figure to me ever since we were transferred to a foster family. I was always made fun of because of not only my adoption, but my guardian’s strict values. Carly would always be there when I deal with new sh*t everyday. Thanks to her, she has boost my confidence every day in order to achieve a successful life.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">Pet Peeves: <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;"> Cold-heartedness and plain mean-spiritedness. Anyone who has shown no sympathy towards no one but themselves are the sins of this planet. The other orphans I had to bunk with have this kind of aura that has always ticked me off.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">Three Words to Describe You: <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;"> Strong-willed, driven, and intellectual.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;"> I reflect on Michele Fitzgerald’s persona because we are both cordial and spirited around camp, always being observant while chaos unleashes to the environment while not trying to make animosity towards others. I’m an intellectual being, I can relate to anyone who shares my capacity of broad knowledge.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;"> To show how strong-minded I really am and what I am out to prove for those with rough pasts. You only have one life in the real world, and SURVIVOR is a great way to release my true colors.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;"> I did not grow up in a wealthy background. I was raised with strict rules and values and had to follow them to avoid punitive actions. In that case, I need to set my mind on one simple rule, winning, and follow that strategy by using all three “out’s”. And as an Idaho native, I enjoy camping out of the city from time to time, so the harsh conditions thrown at me will not rip my body apart.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:700;white-space:pre-wrap;">Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;"> Living in an orphanage and working in the marketing business has its perks when it comes to a more social game. My charm can be an asset right off the bat to build relationships  along with my social awareness. Which can be used for strategic purposes, to analyze others strengths and weaknesses, and compare them to how I outweigh each competitor. This is a game, so I’ll definitely utilize that strategy to make big badass moves in order to win the title, and hopefully gain more experience from this wacky adventure.
