Amanda’s Final Words
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXZq3iJ4fHA
Well I’ve never been voted out before so it’s kind of weird and, you know, the game was getting really crazy. The game was getting a little too crazy for me and, uh, you know this is like I made too many mistakes. So, when you make too many mistakes in Survivor, you get booted. Everything would have worked out brilliantly tonight except the fact that Sandra, and I think Candice, wanted me gone. So, that’s all I can do.
I think Candice and Sandra voted for me because they are afraid of some of the people on the Villains, Russell and Parvati, and I kind of think they didn’t want to go to the end with me either, because I’m strategic.
I think I kind of messed myself up in the reward when I gave the clue to Danielle. I should have kept it. It would have kept me in the game. I think that was my biggest mistake.
The rest of the game is gonna be absolutely crazy and I’m kind of glad I’m not a part of it, to be honest.

I don’t know, I’m just not destined to win this game and, you know, I had a brilliant plan, Candice messed it up.
Well for my third time playing this game, I’ve, I just noticed a big difference in myself I think. I’ve accomplished a lot of personal things.
Survivor is like a mirror so I think the first two times I played I saw a lot of things about myself that I didn’t like, that I wanted to change, and the last year and half, since I’ve played, I’ve really been working on myself personally. This time when I played, I really felt like, um, I just had more control. I was more aggressive and I wasn’t worried about hurting peoples feelings. I went into it as more of a game than, you know, I, my line between the game and reality was, was solid where as before, the line for me was blurred, and it makes it really hard to play this game if you have a blurred line between the game part and the reality part of this game.
My strategy was to be in the majority at the beginning. To be a strong competitor. To get in the majority alliance, to win, and then at the merge, have the numbers. You know, you cant really like, I don’t have a strategy at the beginning of the game that I’m like, ok, this is my strategy for the whole game, cause things change day by day by day, like, minute by minute, so my strategy really is just to put myself in the best spot possible every day I’m out there. Towards the end, like after we merged and JT was voted out, you know, my strategy was to get back the majority so I’m in control again. That was why I wanted Sandra to vote with us and I worked so hard on that, or else I would have just flipped to the Villains tribe. But, the thing about flipping to the Villains tribe, it was like, for me, it was like, “Ok, well Im either, if I do that, I’ll be playing Parvatis game or Russells game. I wont be playing my game”. I’d rather risk, you know, getting the majority and having it favor me for a longer time than, than, go with Parvati and Russell because I knew neither of them wanted me in the end cause they kept talking about how good I was in challenges and how strategic I was. Like, I was at a point to where I was kind of in a corner and it was either maybe I last a little longer and flip to their side or I try to make a big move, and if I was, that was the time to do it. It just didn’t work out.
You know, I came here to win and when I put my mind to something, I, I always get it done and the fact that there was a possibility, you know, I would be voted out was definitely making me nervous. I definitely thought about it a lot, like, “What if I am really going home tonight,like, how is that make me going to feel, really?”. Because you can imagine, you know, like you can say, “Oh, I’ll be fine”, but then when it really happens to you, you like go to pieces. I was disappointed, you know, and of course, you’re in your mind, you’re like, “Oh I should have done this”, and, “Oh my God, I should never have given Danielle back the clue”, and, “I should have done this and this and this”, and you can do that all day long, to every move you make in this game. I mean, all it is, is someone makes a mistake and you’re out. In life you make mistakes. So its like, “Do I beat myself up over it, again and again, or do I just move on and laugh it off?”. I decided to just move on and laugh it off.
