I would say Italy. In Rome, it was about the beautiful architecture- the out-of-this-world food and the wonderful people.
Once we got to Sorrento, it was about the gorgeous coast- our incredible visits to the islands of Amalfi and Capri and the fun and local shopping. Oh yeah and our pizza-making excursion in the hills of Sorrento at a private home-will never forget it and hope to return to Italy again in the future.
2. A favorite quote, verse, or song lyric with the word earth in it?
Earth Angel- 1954 by The Penguins
A classic doo wop song that I love!
3. What's the most trivial thing about which you have a strong opinion?
Oh this is a fun question. I guess so many things like my Herbalife Tea Flavors and Flavor Combos. Fashion. Music. Flowers. My little joys but I feel very strongly about these things- one way or another for sure!
4. What's your most commonly used kitchen utensil or tool? What's the last thing you made using that tool?
It is a wooden spatula and I use it most nights to make dinner- just used it on Thursday night to make a tomato risotto that I served aside Air Fryer Chicken Cutlets.

Senior Assassins
Have you heard of this game? The WHS Assassins Game starts right after April Vacation. We are bracing for it. I can tell Diana is nervous but also excited to play it.
According to Chatgpt, this is the best way to describe this game:
The “Senior Assassin” game (sometimes called Senior Water Wars or Senior Tag) is an informal, student-run game that many U.S. high school seniors play toward the end of the school year.
Here’s the basic idea:
🎯 How it works
- Each player is secretly assigned another student as their “target.”
- Your goal is to “eliminate” your target—usually by spraying them with a water gun (or sometimes a water balloon).
- At the same time, someone else is assigned to eliminate you, so you’re both hunter and hunted.
- When you eliminate your target, you take over their target.
- The game continues until only one person is left.
⏱️ When and where it’s played
- Usually happens in the spring of senior year, right before graduation.
- It’s not a school-sponsored activity and typically can’t be played on school grounds.
📋 Common rules
Rules vary by school, but often include:
- Only use water guns (no realistic-looking weapons)
- Safe zones like school, work, or homes
- No trespassing or unsafe behavior
- Proof of elimination (photo or video)
💰 Why people play
- Sometimes there’s a cash prize from entry fees
- Mostly it’s for fun, competition, and senior-year memories
⚠️ Why it gets attention
Even though it’s meant to be harmless, police and schools sometimes warn about it because:
- People may mistake water guns for real weapons
- Players might trespass or act suspiciously
- There have been accidents or risky behavior tied to the game
Wish us luck! :)
