M-Net Profile
Jacinda is an ‘entrepreneur’ which basically means she doesn’t have a steady job and does all sorts of *bleep!* for money. Much respect to her for that because regular day jobs are just freaky.
She’s a professional Latin American dancer (do the cha cha cha!), professional make-up artist and somehow finds the time to run a finishing school for kids. A finishing school? That sounds so proper and Victorian. I didn’t know finishing schools still existed outside of movie musicals and Switzerland.
As if all these jobs weren’t enough, she also works part-time as a – yes, you guessed it – model. Unlike
Brigitte, she doesn’t seem to be ranked among the world’s sexiest women. Perhaps she’s just unseeded. She’s also got an emerald belt in kickboxing because emerald matches her eyes and handbag. Wait, she does kickboxing? Maybe I should lay off the model jokes or she could kick my ass.
The thing she’d miss most while on the island would be her pupils. Every time I read that, I briefly misunderstand pupils to be her eyes rather than her students which leads to a split second of total confusion.
Jacinda has herself a very smart list of things she’d like to take to the island: a magnifying glass, Citronella and a pillow or blanket. So she already knows her biggest concerns are going to be making fire and plagues of bugs.
She describes herself as extremely strong-willed, emotionally strong and very good under pressure. All good Survivor traits for sure. She aims to play the game as cleverly as she can, a statement which ultimately doesn’t really mean anything when you think about it.
Despite her abuse of exclamation points in her favourites section, she looks promising – someone who could avoid getting targeted like the born leaders, outspoken personalities and other obvious threats yet likely to be a useful enough member to stick around for a long time on her own merits
