Profile

 * Name (Age): Calvin (27)
 * Tribe Designation: Apa (Water)
 * Current Residence: Los Angeles, California
 * Why do you want to return: I'm at a point in my life where I need this more than ever. I put absolutely everything into Survivor the first time I played and still wasn't able to win it, and that seems to be the story of my life right now. Survivor is something I'm good at, and right now I can't say that about a lot else, so I don't just want to return, I need to return.
 * What are you going to do differently this time: Not leave before the merge with an idol in my pocket for starters, that would be advisable. Here's the thing though; I think if any returning player thinks they can come back and play the same game they did the first time, then they're kidding themselves. Granted, there's no way for me to hide my game after Dueling Desert. I played a strong game, I showed myself as strong physically, I showed myself as a social threat, and I showed myself as a pretty crafty strategist. If I can't hide it, I need to embrace it. I need to find myself some allies quickly, because if I'm left out of the loop, there's no way a guy like me can get far, so rather than go in with a million ideas of how to play, I need to just let the season come to me and adapt as I go.
 * How have you changed since your previous season: Too much. Way too much. Everything has gone to [expletive] for me. I lost my job, I had to move back in with my sister, I'm still out of work right now. It's just been so much to process and so much to handle, and if I didn't have Survivor to put my focus towards, I don't know what I'd be doing with myself. I'm a shell of the person I was in Dueling Desert right now, and I just really need to find him again.
