Exclusive Interview: Liliana Gomez, 4th Survivor Voted Off

What’s thrilling and intriguing about reality shows is that you’re never really sure of what’s going to happen next. Just like in the last episode of Survivor: Fiji, another member of the Moto tribe was unexpectedly voted off.In an exclusive interview, Liliana Gomez expresses her sentiments on being the fourth Survivor to be eliminated.Liliana Gomez, a 25-year old from Oxnard, California, is currently a loan officer. Born on April 5, 1981, Gomez went to Guadalajara, Jalisco, where she discovered her passion for music and singing. After graduating high school in the United States, she joined the United States Marine Corps where she served for eight years and became part of Operation Iraqi Freedom War.Her decision to join Survivor: Fiji can be described as "out of the blue."Although Survivor was very familiar to her, she was not an avid fan of the series. She just gave it a shot by passing on her headshot in which she stated she had military background. Ultimately, she got a call and went through the casting process and instantly made it as a participant of the adventure-reality show.Looking back, Gomez regrets her decision to go to tribal council after Moto’s winning the immunity challenge. She said, "I am hitting my head against the wall. It’s one of those "doh!" moments. I wish I would have spoke up and said, "You know what, we need as many people as we can, let’s go to the Ravu camp, who cares?"Moreover, Gomez recognizes the fact that the girls on her tribe resent her.She came out strong and exuded a fierce presence just like "one of the boys." But that’s just her innate persona, which unintentionally intimidated them. She also illustrated herself as a tribe member who is hardworking and industrious, unlike other members, particularly pertaining to the girls, who just slack off most of the time.Furthermore, her experience in Survivor, although packed with much backstabbing twists and a little bitterness, is something very precious, memorable and very grateful for. She adds, "I would do again in a heartbeat, but this time I would totally just crush them."
