Cindy Lawrence

 is a contestant from Survivor: Taiwan-One World.

Profile
Name (Age): Cindy Lawrence (42)

Current Residence: Doylestown, PA

Occupation: Driving Instructor

Personal Claim to Fame: I once ran a marathon with my sister Linda after she survived cancer. It was a crazy time but I loved it, and it's kept me in pretty good shape ever since. Also, I've taught thousands of kids how to safely drive so that's a big claim to fame as well.

Inspiration in Life: Hmm, there's a few. My grandmother raised me and Linda from a young age, she's such a strong woman. Linda is also a great rolemodel, battling against cancer and having such a great family. And I can't forget about my husband Mike, he loves me everyday for just who I am and that's great.

Hobbies: Hiking with my son Alexander, we do it every weekend. I also enjoy drinking coffee, going on road trips, and completing crosswords with Mike.

Pet Peeves: I really can't stand bad drivers, haha! Sometimes I just want to pull people over, climb into their passenger seat, and give them a reminder of the rules of the road! But besides that not much really irks me.

3 Words to Describe You: Calm, Focused, Observant

Survivor Contestant You're Most Like: I would probably have to go with Trish Hegarty from Cagayan. She was such a strong, sarcastic woman who stood her own ground but also was a fantastic social player and had great reads in the game. I aspire to be as good as her, and I think we have very similar personalities.

Reasons for Being on Survivor: I love my life, but it's always been a little middle of the road. I want some real adventure, I want something big I can sit down in the nursing home when I'm ninety years old and tell my grandchildren about with a proud smile. Also, the million dollars would be really nice for my family; the salaries of a driving instructor and a janitor don't exactly make for a lavish lifestyle.

Why You Think You'll Survive Survivor: I've always been an outdoorsy type of girl, and so I enjoy going hiking and camping and fishing, all that good stuff. I've also done marathons so I'm pretty physically fit. I think my drive will also get me through the tougher parts of the game.

Why You Think You'll Be the Sole Survivor: I think I have a great personality to play this game. I'm a pretty quiet, introverted person, but I know how to socialize. So I'm not inept socially, but I'm not a social threat. I also know strategy but I'm not a mastermind, and I'm fit but I'm not a challenge beast. I'm good enough at everything to keep me in the game but I'm not good enough at them to be threatening, so I think I'll be able to glide through much of the game UTR, proactively making bonds with everyone but not really getting noticed. And around the mid merge, I can start striking and making a few decisive moves that will earn me the win.
