Sandra's Opening Statement

Where Sandra will post her opening statement.

[Sandra Diaz-Twine]

Hello lovelies. I started this game with an alliance with Lex and Coach. However, during tribe mode i had to vote Lex out because he became dead weight. We constantly lost challenges and I had to get on the right side of each vote to make sure that the inactive people were voted out each round. In the beginning I always thought of Amanda as being my biggest threat, However, once we hit merge I started really liking Amanda and she kept me in the loop and I got into a good alliance with Yau man, because I knew he was on the outs.

Eliza self voted the first round which seriously made me LOL. Then we all got together and blindsided Corinne which was another LOL, the only week that totally sucked was when my girl Amanda was ousted. Then Jonathan self voted. The round Stephen left I knew that I couldnt stay loyal to Coach and Ozzy, i knew that they were probably more close than I was to either of them.

This round Shane won immunity and Ozzy had a special power to make him immune. I got with Yau man and Shane to vote out Coach, I brought everyone together to vote out Coach which was a HUGE power play. I knew that if I had voted Yau out and next round Shane won immunity that they would have gotten together and totally have voted me out. I also felt that it would put me and Yau in a really good spot in the game. Our votes together would atleast TIE something, meaning we could basically flip flop to either side. If Shane didnt win immunity we would have gotten with Ozzy to get Shane out, but Shane won immunity and we got together to vote out Ozzy, Shane of course flip flopped because he sucks.

I never won immunity in this game, I brought out the win when I really needed it in the TB. I was never looked at as a threat BECAUSE I didnt want to be looked at as one, why the fuck do you think amanda was voted out? She was SEEN as a threat by everyone SAME WITH CORINNE, why stick out when power players were being taken out left and right?

I feel like I had to fight so much harder for this than Shane or Yau.


Yau did everything I told him to do, thats it.

Shane said he just "voted" how people told him to vote, which is what everyone is accusing me of, which isnt true. I played it smart, but made it appear like I was a moron and partly inactive so no one would think of getting rid of me. Shane just depended on immunity, I played a smart STRATEGICAL game, if Shane hadn't won immunity his ass would have been out so early, his strategical game sucked.

I made the right moves at the right time, I would have been OUT if i didn't get Coach out, it was a freakin brilliant move on my end. What Shane did wasn't strategical, it was A LOT of luck. Shane may have the outplay, but I sure the fuck have the outwit. Outlast is up to you.

So I hope you all take this into consideration and vote for me to win.
