Each weekday, EW will post the answers from a different player.
But not even we were prepared for what happened next inMichelle Schubert’sSurvivorQuarantine Questionnaire.
“There’s an agreed-upon location to poop while you’re out there,” explains Michelle.

Always the free thinker, however, Michelle had a different plan in mind.
Producers would occasionally remind us sternly to ‘go where we all agreed’ and so eventually I conformed."
What was the big problem…

I mean, other than surrounding the camp with human waste on both sides?
For Michelle, the answer came back when she returned home from Fiji.
MICHELLE SCHUBERT:Ha, where to begin?
I feel like I’ve lived a lifetime in just four in a half years.
I’ve had some great experiences, but also some deep hardships.
Let’s focus on the positive.
Public eye I was on the 11th season ofAmerican Ninja Warrior.
Still a fun experience.
What is your proudest moment ever from playingSurvivor?
My proudest moment onSurvivorwas the “move” I put together in episode 2.
What is your biggest regret from yourSurvivorexperience?
My biggest regret was going quiet on the day I went home!
It was the only vote in which I did not participate much in the strategizing or conversations for.
I’m sure I could have made it happen.
Producers would occasionally remind us sternly to “go where we all agreed” and so eventually I conformed.
How do you feel about the edit you got on the show?
I didn’t feel I was given a bad edit, just not a good one.
What was it like coming back to regular society after being out there?
Was there culture shock or an adjustment coming back?
I was ALWAYS eating, ALWAYS hungry.
My sleep schedule was super messy.
Perhaps the hardest part was my decision-making problems.
I just couldn’t decide anything.
I would overanalyze everything to the point of tears.
Someone would ask, “When do you want to go to the store?”
and one thousand details would come to mind that I felt should affect my decision.
Eventually, time and a good counselor helped me figure out how to swiftly make those simple decisions again.
Perhaps if I were not as introverted this would not have been so hard.
Whom do you still talk, text, or email with the most from your season?
There’s a handful I stay in touch with.
I would welcome any of my castmates to come see me in the Cascade mountains!
It’s been the only show I’ve ever watched religiously.
Who’s one player from anotherSurvivorseason you wish you could have played with or against and why?
Perhaps against Boston Rob, to see who’s better at puzzles.
Or with Coach or Phillip Sheppard because of the fun imagery they often used to describe their co-castaways.
What would they have said about me?
If you could make one change to any aspect ofSurvivor,what would it be and why?
More clothing and food.
Finally, would you play again if asked?
