Hello Everyone.
Wow. I still can't believe that I'm here. Final 3. Wow. I'm very humble by this experience. Got to know a bunch of new people and reunited with some old friends was pretty excited for me. This is my THIRD consecutive Final 2 or 3 appearances after Survivor Pearl Island & Jlyrics 4: Myanmar where I lost 5-2 and 3-2 in the finale
I sign up for this game at last minutes. And I don't know if any of my friends were going to be here so I was like alone. When I got Cristina Coria, I was like 'What?' because I never used her in previous game before. Actually I want to play as Cecilia aka Cece. But I got Cristina Coria, so I change her name to make it sound like Cece which is CC.
Pre-Game - Suddenly, I just got my first PM from Jenny and I found out she is Jerri, my final 2 opponents in Survivor Pearl Island. We were allied in that game, since from the beginning to the end and she beat me 5-2 at the end. So we decided if we were in the same tribe we will work together. But we were not in the same tribe yet.
Week #1, #2 & #3 (Pre-Tribal Switch) – I was in Raro along with Bad-ass Brad, Sassy Stephannie, Super Sekou, Raunchy Rebecca & Awesome Adam. We won our first challenge, so we don’t have to worry on that week. I start to talk to Sekou and Steph mostly. But nothing official. Just go with the flow. In Week #2, we lost the immunity challenge and it’s down to Sekou & Adam. But I have to vote out Adam because I knew Sekou has more potential to help us win next time and majority of the tribe voted for Adam too. One thing I respect about Adam is he fight for his life, until the end he tried to change the votes from him to Sekou. But it didn’t work out. Week #3, we lost the IC again. It’s quite easy this week because suddenly Rebecca was dissappeared and we doesn’t have another choice instead of her.
Week #4, #5 & #6 (Post-Tribal Switch) – Switch!!! I’m so happy with this switch because I got to know some new friends. My new tribe was called Aitutaki and consisted with Big Billy, Pretty Parvati, Crazy Cecilia, Outrageus Ozzy, Playful Penner and my girl, Sassy Steph. Just like that, Billy, Parvati, Steph and I formed our alliance together. We lost the IC. Out of nowhere, Cece came up to us with a plan to vote out Ozzy. Past game issue, I guess. Then Ozzy came up to me asking about the vote and I kinda like him so I can’t lie to him. I told him the truth. Well he said to me this ‘ Do what you’ve to do’ and I know that sentence. It means ‘I got the HII’. I found out the original plan for Ozzy and Penner is to vote out Steph or me and Steph is my girl, I can’t lose her at this point. So when he asked me about who’s planning this whole thing, i told Ozzy it was Cecilia hoping he and Penner will change his vote from Steph or me to Cecilia. I was thinking about why don’t I just go to Billy and Parv and told them about the possibilty of Ozzy’s having the idol and change our vote to Penner, but I’m worry since Parv mentioned to me she like Penner and I don’t want to risk my position right now. So I just shut my mouth and thank God, Ozzy & Penner used the idol on Cecilia instead of Steph or worst, me. Week #5, Candice join our tribe and it’s Double TC Week. Ozzy won the Individual Immunity and he send Penner to SI. We don’t have any other options beside Candice. She was at the wrong place and at the wrong time. Week #6, We won immunity. Thanks to Billy and his devoted love to Top 40 songs. Good Job.
Week #7, #8 & #9 (Merge) – Merge. Finally reunited with Jenny. Also met several new people like Brave Becky and Noble Nate. Becky was the least poster in the First Individual IC and was eliminated from game. I was looking forward to know her since she’s always posting in the Fun & Games thread and seems pretty cool. Other news, Yul choose to brought Adam back and i’m quite skeptical at it first because I worried that he might want to get some revenge on me or Steph for voting him out. But he’s not that kinda person. He’s Awesome Adam. At TC, Billy was blindsided when everyone was voting him out except Me, Steph and Parv. Well I just realized that we’re not in good position at all. But I’m so happy because me and Jenny made a deal to protect each other from our alliances and hopefully manage to get to the final together again. In this week too, I found out that Parv is my another Final 2 opponent in Jlyrics 4 Myanmar and she beat me 3-2 in the finale. And I like her or him so much in our previous game and I knew I can trust her. Week #8, suddenly Ozzy’s name came up. Yul came up to us and said the plan this week is to blindside Ozzy. I’m cool with the plan but in following week I want him to be with us and voting out Penner because I knew how dangerous he can be especially when he turned on Ozzy. So Ozzy was blindsided in Week #8. Week #9, Yul kept his word to us girls and together with Adam & Jenny we voted out Penner.
Week #10 & #11 (Final 8/7) – Right now me and my girls in a good position along with Yul & Adam. But Jenny and I also have our own secret deals. I’m the only one who knew she had the HII in her hands so we’re going to use it to our own benefits. When Yul suggested the plan to vote Jenny this week, I knew I’ve to warn Jenny to use her HII. But when she said that Yul got another plan to vote out Parvati, me and Jenny compared our notes; from our conversation with Yul and we were like wow. We’re not sure which side Yul want to pick for this week. So we make a plan to blindside Yul. Jenny think she can get Sekou & Nate to vote out Yul and i think I can get Parv and Steph to vote out Yul too. And bonus point for us, we can keep Jenny’s HII that week. It’s really hard to convinced Parv at first. But when I showed her the convo between Jenny & Yul , she’s agree to vote out Yul. So Yul was blinsided this week. Week #11, right now Adam/Parv/Steph/Myself vs Nate/Sekou/Jenny/Jenny’s HII. It’s 4 against 4 (I considered Jenny’s HII as a person, namely Cao Bui). Finally Nate lost the IC and it was Jenny who won the IC. So we can keep Jenny’s HII for one more week. Of course I want Jenny to send me to SI to prevent Nate from winning any prize. But Jenny is a good person. I mean Nate sent her twice to SI and Nate really desperate right now. So we decided it’s not good for us to reveal our secret alliance at this point. So she send Nate to SI. Us 4 (My girls plus Adam) decide to vote Nate at first. But when Jenny send Nate to SI we worried what if Nate find something so we decide to change our votes to Sekou. But Adam’s kinda like Sekou. Secret alliance too? Adam managed to convince us girl to stick to our original plan to vote out Nate because Nate might not find the HII and Sekou might be voting with us. So we stick with our original plan and voted for Nate. And of course Nate found the HII and voted out Parv.
Week #12 & #13 (Final 6/5) – Final 6 left us with Adam/Steph/Myself vs Nate/Jenny/Sekou/Cao Bui, Jenny’s HII. Nate won IC again. Adam told us Sekou is ready now to join us and voted out Jenny. But I knew Jenny’s got the HII and Sekou is about to dig his own grave. He didn’t realized Jenny got the HII. I know this is the right moment for me to be in Final 3 no matter with which sides. So Jenny used her Idol. Adam was blinsided and Nate pissed off at Sekou. Nate then told me he’ll bring me in Final 3 not Sekou anymore. Sorry Sekou. Had to do what I’ve to do. Final 5. Finally no HII. Nate won again. Lol. And Sekou & Steph want Jenny gone and Nate & Jenny want Sekou gone. So should I kickin’ in the front seat with S & S or just sittin’ in the back seat with N & J. So my consideration this week is who can beat that super freakin’ Nate in Final 4 IC because if he’s in the Final 3 he will win. And I knew Jenny from my game before and she’s good with spamming and endurance so I decided it’s better for me to vote out Sekou so Jenny had more chance to beat Nate and we don’t want Nate in the Final 3.
Week #14 (Final 4) – Final 4. Right now the plan is to prevent Nate from winning the HII. But Nate is super freakin’ crazy. I knew I can’t beat him because my Internet Server was such a crap and Steph have family emergency. So it’s down to Jenny or Nate. Nate won the final immunity. So it’s now between Jenny, Steph or me. I’m so grateful that both girls like me and I like them too but Steph is my girl and we’ve been together since the beginning of this game, so I had to vote out my secret ally, Jenny. Then the drama began. I decided to keep my mouth shut because both Jenny & Steph are my friends outside the game and I can’t pick a side between ya’ll. I hope everything is going to be okay between ya’ll two.
Finally, I just want to say that I’m very proud of myself. Third Consecutive Final 2 or 3 appearances are pretty awesome for me. I’d overcame several barriers in order for me to be here such as the differences in timezone, language barrier (English was like my fourth language after Chinese, Malay & Korean) and so on. I’m here not because of the help from Immunity Necklaces or Hidden Immunity Idol, I’m here because of my strategy. I want to prove that you don’t need a cuthroat strategy in order to win this game. Just being who you are and I’m just being myself which is sometimes a clueless and naive girl but still got a killer instinct. Once again, thank you for this experience and You guys are pretty amazing. I’m going to remember this moment and I promise I’ll answer the questions as honest as I can be. That’s it from me. I hope I didn’t bored you guys. I feel it’s my responsibility to let you guys know about my gameplay since from the begining till the end of the game. See ya’ll later. Thank You.
