He believes he is a master strategist that is always pulling shenanigans on people who suspect he's just an innocent kid. He describes himself as mischievous, hilarious and creative.

Certernino cites a last minute college road trip where he and two buddies drove 21 hours to go to Mardi Gras in New Orleans (without hotel accommodations) as his single greatest accomplishment. His favorite sport is baseball and he is an avid fan of the New York Mets and New York Jets. His hero is Bob Barker because, since a child, he always admired how he ran the show and was so funny about it. Superman is his chosen superhero -- besides the obvious strength and flying, "the x-ray vision would keep me busy for hours." He is doing this because he is an avid fan of SURVIVOR and has dreamed of being a castaway. If he wins the $1 million, he's buying a "fully equipped bachelor pad with a big neon sign that will say 'OPEN.'" Cesternino currently lives with his family in Wantagh, NY.

Awareinva | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:37 pm     Daniel's favorite Board game is Hungry Hungry Hippo!!! ROFLMAO What does that tell us about him!!??!! |
Awareinva | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 10:04 pm     Dave is proud of the fact the biked across the US last summer and only took three showers!! He should do well in the wilderness!! And he plans to start a BEEF JERKY company with the million $ if he wins!!! And Rob's luxury item is a Magic 8 BAll!!! I can hear it now.... who shall we vote off this week? Let's consult the magic 8 ball!! LOL You gotta love this show!! |
Kaili | Wednesday, January 29, 2003 - 07:00 am     I think it's interesting that both Daniel and Matthew speak Mandarin Chinese. This has definitly changed my opinion about some of the people. I still think Matthew will be a snob with his Vanity Fair, oh-so-sophisticated drinks and scent of garlic sauteeing! But boy the model guy- Ryan- this made me like him less. He'll be all hung up with keeping himself pretty and getting girls. Even the magazines listed as his faviorites(ugh!) I think I will like Dave. |
Awareinva | Wednesday, January 29, 2003 - 01:08 pm     Kaili, I didn't notice that but wow, wouldn't that be a key factor in keeping things secret? If these two formed an alliance, they could just discuss strategy out in the open IN MANDARIN!! What a plus!! Of course if the dirt about Daniel going early is true, not really going to be a factor I guess.  |
Neko | Thursday, February 13, 2003 - 05:03 pm     DAMN These guys are cocky... |
Awareinva | Saturday, February 15, 2003 - 07:00 pm     Rob has to go soon.... that magic 8 ball plucked my last nerve! |
