Yve's Questions

[Jeff Probst]

This is where Yve will post her Questions !

[Yve Rojas]

Well I was gonna wait for Chase to come on, but that could be forever.

Chase & Tyrone, I knew from the moment we merged that you two would be sitting in the end. Everyone on your tribe seemed content with whatever place they got, except for Na'Onka. I must say I was really bored with the gameplay, but I can respect two strong players making it to the end.

Shannon, we never talked, I never saw anything out of you of consequence. To me, all you did was cling tightly to Chase and Tyrone's ankles to get to the finals, so if you want my vote, you'd have to work for it.

SHANNON:
Tell me how wrong I was that all you did was go along with whatever Chase and Tyrone told you to do by telling me concrete examples as to how you led the alliance in anything - voting, challenges, anything.

CHASE & TYRONE:
More than likely, unless Shannon gives the answer of the century, I will be voting for one of you two, and I want you two to have some fun questions, so here they are:

1. If you could date anyone in Hollywood, who would it be and why?
2. If you could be cast in any movie, what movie would you want to be in and why?
3. What are the 5 important things you would include in your things-to-do list?
4. What is your taste in music?
5. If you could have lunch with any three people (real of fictitious/ from any time period, dead or alive) , which three people would you choose and why?

I will get to them a little bit later tonight Yve

Take your time doll we got lots of it!

[Shannon Elkins]

Shannon, we never talked, I never saw anything out of you of consequence. To me, all you did was cling tightly to Chase and Tyrone's ankles to get to the finals, so if you want my vote, you'd have to work for it.

SHANNON:
Tell me how wrong I was that all you did was go along with whatever Chase and Tyrone told you to do by telling me concrete examples as to how you led the alliance in anything - voting, challenges, anything.

Well Yve, again surprised you feel that way, yes we never talked, but I can assure you what you say about clinging in Chase and Ty's ankles is untrue.

I will tell you this, I don't think there was a clear leader in the alliance, we all pitched in we all gave our ideas we all did our best and made the alliance work.

Now to answer your question, i'll start with the voting

During each round we went to Tribal Council, it was very simple they would ask "Shannon what do you think about the vote?" or "Shannon what are your thoughts about the vote?" "This person or that?" And I was very open and honest and I stated my case. In the votes I looked forward to voting out people in the beginning that were not contributing/anti-social/out of the loop and I said that to Ty & Chase straight out. It then changed to people that I saw as threats or people that were not really playing the game, mixed together.
Chase & I came up with the idea to blindside Holly, which clearly worked after the own espadas wanted to vote out Sash. And even some old Espada members agreed and Holly was sent home. And basically I voiced out my opinions about the vote, many of the times I agreed and other times I was like "Ok maybe not the best choice" An example was when Benry's name was brought up I believe in the final 7, but I stated that I didn't want to vote for him because I think he deserved to make it at least final 5 (Final 4 plan was all 4 La Flor members left), so we came up with the plan to vote out...well you, sorry

Another thing I was able to do, find out a lot of information. Here's a very good example in the final 8: PK pmed me saying she wanted Sash out, Benry wanted Chase & Tyrone out because he thought that they were very aligned, he also told me Sash's plans to vote out PK. I told both of them this info which was a done deal and we eventually went with PK's plan and sent Sash home

In the round where PK was voted out, I was very open to her and said, sorry you're going home tonight, Tyrone asked me if I would vote for her or for him and I said "dude, I'm voting for PK, I said I would never vote for you and I'm keeping my word"

Anyway, on to challenges

Challenge-wise it was clear that we were in the game baby. Examples I can give you, the plate smash challenge Final 12. My plan there was to make sure that myself, Ty & Chase would be the last 3 standing, at that point I didn't really care who won immunity, cause the idea was to make sure someone from my alliance was safe.

Another thing was the posting challenge at Final 11 I believe or Final 10. It was down to the wire, I wanted to win immunity but I also knew that Tyrone was seen as a huge threat, way more than I was, so I decided to let it go and let him win, but unfortunately Sash won that challenge, but Ty was saved.

I know you think that maybe I didn't play the best physical game or the best strategic game, and maybe I wasn't out there as Chase or Tyrone for you, but you're wrong, I was totally playing the game 100%. We never got the chance to talk, which I regret not actually talking to you during the game. All I can say is I gave it my all from start to finish and I'm honored to be sitting here and I hope I get your vote cause I feel i deserve it

Thanks Yve

[Chase Rice]

Hello Yve and thanks for the compliment. I just want to comment a little bit that while you think I only stuck with LaFlor I was also working with Dan even though at the last few rounds before he was eliminated he just seemed to have gone. But he was my goto man from your side when I wanted to know what was going on. Anyway, to your questions

1. If you could date anyone in Hollywood, who would it be and why?
I would say Jake Gylenhaal. I am just such a big fan of him and have followed most of his movies and I just think it would be cool to be with him. I don't know if you noticed but yeah I flirted with some of the guys here and hey I even have an all guy final 3

2. If you could be cast in any movie, what movie would you want to be in and why?
Hmmm, maybe Brokeback Mountain with Jake Gylenhaal? Well if you don't like that answer though I'd love to be in a Batman movie, the recent ones with Christian Bale or the X-Men Movies, I really like fantasy and science fiction movies so I'd want to be in one of them.

3. What are the 5 important things you would include in your things-to-do list?
1. Buy a home
2. Buy a car
3. Have an investment of more than a million dollars
4. Take care of my family
5. Have a boyfriend ( Yeah don't have a boyfriend )

4. What is your taste in music?
I am really not picky when it comes to music, I just listen to just about anything but I usually like songs with lyrics that have meaning. Those music that you can relate to or get some sort of lesson from it. Most of what I listen to though is Alternative Rock but I am a very flexible guy when it comes to music.

5. If you could have lunch with any three people (real of fictitious/ from any time period, dead or alive) , which three people would you choose and why?
Jake Gylenhaal, Hugh Jackman, Tom Westman. Because they are three of the guys I really adore and love and I think it would just be fun to have lunch with all three of them

Thanks for your questions Yve and good luck with your decision

[Tyrone Davis]

1. If you could date anyone in Hollywood, who would it be and why?

Hmmmm, this is a toughie...(and I hope my gf don't get jealous )

But I will go with my most favorite actress, which happens to be Scarlett Johannson. Aside from being overwhelmingly attractive, I also appreciate the fact she is not one of those stuck up celebs that know their good looking and act like they rule the world. She is very down to earth, and she promotes a lot of good things, her main thing promoting how girls don't have to be model thin to look attractive, which is so right. She's never in any type of controversy, she seems like a down to earth person who'd be a blast to be around and she stands up for all the right things, so if I could date anyone in Hollywood, it would be her. She is more then just looks and that is something very rare in celebs these days.

2. If you could be cast in any movie, what movie would you want to be in and why?

Surprisingly (or not) enough, if I was to be cast in any movie, it would be The Island starring Ewan McGreggor and Scarlett Johannson. And I'd want to be in this movie in place of Ewan not because of Scarlett being the lead female, but because this is my all time favorite movie. I just love movie's that have philosophical questions to them and deal with moral issue's etc. This has been my favorite movie ever, and I have seen a lot of movies, but this one tops the list and if I was in this movie, man, would it be great. If I could ever be in anything even remotely close to a movie like this I think I'd be in heaven. Just the whole plot to the movie and the action and the questions it poses about morals and ethics, it's fascinating. If you haven't seen it, I STRONGLY recommend this movie

www.imdb.com/title/tt0399201/

It may not be rated highly on IMDB (6.9 out of 10) but this is a really good movie, with an interesting storyline and I would give anything to be in it if I ever could. Not to mention the chance to make out with you know who hehe

3. What are the 5 important things you would include in your things-to-do list?

Hmmm. I am going to assume you mean the 5 most important things I would include on my to do list on a day to day basis, and if I am wrong, please correct me and I will answer them the right way. I will go from 1 being the most important out of everything down to 5.

1 - Not that this is a "to-do" sort of thing but something is making me thing this is more or less a list of important things to me, and if so, number one, hands down would be my girlfriend. Now I know I have drooled over Scarlett my last two questions, but there is nothing in the world more important to me then her. If I had to choose between her any anyone, or anything, I would always pick my girlfriend because she is the most important thing in my life hands down. So the first thing on my list every day if you will, is to tell her how much I love her, and how much she means to me and just how special she is, and how lucky she makes me feel. It's sappy, but I honestly feel like the luckiest guy in the world and I can't even spend a day without at least hearing her voice at least. She is the most important thing to me in the world and top of my list everyday would be to tell her that and show her and tell her just how special she is to me.

2 - Make sure I get some form of studying in for at least an hour every day. Going to University is not exactly a walk in the park and I find that if you don't review things for at least an hour every day time can slip by and then you fall behind. I am currently aiming to get my degree in Criminology with a minor in English and hopefully law school after wards, so I need to keep my habits for studying in control. You can't get anywhere in life without an education and I am going to need a damned good one to be able to provide for my family now, and for when I settle down so at my age, education is the most important to me (outside my gf obv. )

3 - Take care of my family. More precisely, my brothers. My parents both work 13 hour days (they own and run a restaurant) so they are never home. I am the only authority figure left in the house when I am not at school so I try to be the father figure to my brothers and I pretty much am the father figure to them. I help them with their school work, I help them give em' advice, and even play with them. I recently helped/coached my 13 year old brother and he's not the starting center for his school basketball team, and I take a lot of pride in knowing how far he's come both in sports and academically, improving his marks from C's and B's to high B's and A's. My dad was never around much because of him having to work so much so I never had that father figure to look up to and I don't want my brothers to go through that so I always make sure I am there for them, heck, you can say I'm their father and mother figure, lol. Way I see it, just practice for when I have kids lol. So taking care of my family is right up there with the rest too.

4 - Get in at least, 30 minutes of exercise in daily. When I was in high school, I was really pushing my weight and got up to a number I am actually disgusted in even saying so I won't. I used to play football but injuries took a toll on me to the point that I was told if I get another serious injury... it could prove to be deadly :-\ (I suffered 4 concussions in one season of high school football). So I stopped and I started hitting the weights and cardio and was able to drop nearly 75 pds and have never felt better. I know play basketball as my sport of choice and doing some form of activity helps me maintain my weight and keep my away from the guy I hated a few years back.

5 - Enjoy life. Life is a roller coaster and has it's ups and downs and I have seen people freak out over silly things, stress out over things so much they get sick and just worry and sulk about things. My motto is, you are living now, you never know what tomorrow can bring so enjoy life best you can when you can, obviously once you have your priorities set. I'm going to make damn sure that when I have kids of my own, I am going to cherish the time I spend with them and my wife. Get on a good career path so I can provide for them but also make sure I don't neglect them because this thing or that thing came up at work, I'll be working till I'm 60, my kids won't be that age forever you know, and you never know what's in store so I am going to make sure no matter what happens, I spend every day the best I can, spend it with the people I love and enjoy everything life has to offer. You only get to live once, no sense in wasting time.

4. What is your taste in music?

I like a little bit of everything, as long as it has a good beat to it, sign me up. I will say I tend to stay away from Country, Rock'n'Roll and Heavy Metal type of stuff though. Also, if a song has a really deep meaning and the lyrics are touching, chances are, that song is on my Ipod. I would say I have a lot of Alternative (like Jason Mraz), Hip Hop, RnB (like Usher), a bit of Rap, Pop, etc. If the song's a hit, I probably like it. If you'd like a better example of what I like, here are three of my favorite songs, but as you can tell I am a softie





Enjoy! (Hopefully, lol)

5. If you could have lunch with any three people (real of fictitious/ from any time period, dead or alive) , which three people would you choose and why?

Probably sound like a broken record but the first person would be my lover . If you can't tell I am kinda crazy about her and well, I cherish every moment and she's always on my mind so even with so many possible choices and only 3 slots, she would, will and always will have that first slot no matter what. I love her.

The second person would be Michael Jordan. After I couldn't continue playing football in high school (I used to play Full Back and a bit of Half Back if you follow it at all) I took up basketball. At first I was in a little state of free fall because the last game I would ever play would also happen to be the last game away without scouts, as a few scouts from some of the lesser division 1 colleges and some from the division 2 colleges were coming to scout for the next game, but after I couldn't go anymore, I took up basketball and became a huge fanatic, so what better to spend lunch with then arguably the greatest ever basketball player? I would probably be starstruck and have so much questions for him, lol. Definitely someone I'd want to have lunch with.

The third person... hmm. Since I already said I would date Scarlett Johannson, let's not make it repetitive, so I will go for....hmm. You know, lunch with Jeff Probst isn't sounding too shabby. I love Survivor and I would probably pick away at Jeff's brain with the amount I talk to him and ask him questions, and I would probably beg and plead him to let me be on the show, lol. I am Canadian so I can't But that would be really interesting and something I would like to do.

Thanks Yve! and if you have anything else to ask, feel free

[Yve Rojas]

DAMN YOU BOTH!

Both are SUCH awesome answers! AAGH I still can't choose! You're both amazing!

And Shannon, I truly appreciate your answer too, it does make it even more difficult!
