Final Words

First, I would like to thank Mark Burnett and Jeff for giving me this amazing opportunity to play the ultimate game. It has been a blast and I have enjoyed every minute I have spent in Okinawa. (you too Mario...you are the best!!)

I will be the first to admit, I did not play an honest game, I lied and schemed. I knew going into this game, that I would scheme and use people. I might have lied and schemed more than most, but no one can say they played this game with total honor...without lying, without scheming. It's part of the game...and I have no regrets.

I think I did a great job of outwitting, outplaying and outlasting almost everyone in the game. Unfortunately, there are 3 left and I am not one of them...but in the end, only one can win.

I made it to the final 4 and if I went along with Emma, I know I could have been final 2 or 3, but I also know the best chance I had to go to final 2 and to win, was to have Mike standing beside me in the final 2. Emma says she wanted what was best for both of us, but in this game, you have to look out for your own interests...and Emma was looking out for hers just as I was looking out for mine. I did what was best for me...I took a chance and it didn't pay off for me, but I don't believe in playing it safe. I've said I didn't want to leave this game with any if's, and's or butt's...and I don't have any.

I lost any honor I had by voting Joni off. That was the worst mistake I made in this game. Hopefully, I regained some honor by the way I was taken out of the game...in my death.

I wish everyone the best of luck in your quest to become the ultimate survior. As I said before the game began, I tried to do what my dad told me "Michelle, be good but if you can't be good, don't get caught."...I'm sorry Dad...I got caught.

To my husband Scott....Thank you for your support you have given me to play this game. I love you with all my heart, you are my soul mate and the greatest man I have ever met. It is a privilege to be your wife and I treasure every day with you....you are my handsome hero man and I hope I have made you proud.

Good luck to all Emma, Amy and Mike. Have fun...kick butt and fight your hardest to be the last one standing.
