Tina's Final Words

This game did not turn out the way I anticipated. I did not anticipate getting this far. If you ask me did this game turn out the way I hoped, I didn't even in my wildest hopes think I could get this far. It's been a total surprise. This game has 100% surprised me, because I never thought I could get this far. I never saw myself in the top group of people here. My biggest hope was to make it as far as the jury. That was as far as I allowed myself to hope. Outside of that, I couldn't imagine competing against these younger people, and all the politics that are involved.

I knew I could do the elements, I knew, because I love to camp, that you know, being outside and the weather and all that never even phased me. I thought that the food would have a large impact on me, and that may knock me out of the game just because I was afraid that something may happen with me nutritionally and I wouldn't make it, or that one of the younger people would vote me off. And for those two reasons I thought that there was no way I could make it to the end. And that's why this game has been such a surprise to me.
