3 Words to Describe You: Patient, Careful, Energetic

If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be? My punching bag as sometimes when I face people who annoy me I need a punching bag to let the steam out, I wish I can have my yoga mat as it helps me to calm down and my husband as I just love him a lot and I wish he can be out here with me.

Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: I say I am a less over the top version of Michelle Waterson, I see myself going off people, yet I won't be as villainous as her.

Reason for Being on Survivor: I am mainly here to play along with my boyfriend. While I myself do watch the show, I didn't have interest in playing, but since I get to play along with my boyfriend, so I agreed to come.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: In terms of physically, I am physically fit to endure the elements and the challenges, so I think I won't have much of a problem physically. Socially, while I think may struggle hard to fit in with my more quiet personality, I will still try my best.

What Does It Mean to You to Play "Survivor" with Your Loved One?: Being out here with the love of my life really means a lot, as survivor is definitely more of a mental endurance than physical, and the fact both of us have to endure the physical and mental challenge together will definitely strengthen our relationship.
