Q: What is your favorite food and what is its sign

Q: What is your favorite food and what is its significance? A: “My favorite food is coffee, even though it’s more of a drink my mom always calls it “food”. In my moms family it was a huge tradition to sit down and drink a cup of coffee at the kitchen table before bed. This probably sounds kind of weird to most people because coffee is known to keep you awake but it always seemed to not affect them or they’re would drink decaf. Naturally as a little girl I wanted to be included in this so I started drinking coffee with them at a pretty young age, around 7 or 8 and ever since then i’ve loved it and it’s now something I drink on a daily. I think coffee is a great drink because it’s enjoyed in so many different ways like flavors and the way you make it, hot or cold, etc.”-Isabel Rivera ‘24

Q: Who is your role model and why?
A: “I’d have to say my role model is Soulja boy because even after everyone was calling him a one hit wonder and even after he had to pull the Soulja console from shelves worldwide he kept going and now he’s a successful twitch streamer, rapper and entrepreneur that’s planning on coming out with a new Soulja cryptocurrency.” -Zach Anderson ‘21

Q: Do you have any hobbies?
A: “I am an artist so doing digital art is really relaxing to me... I have a friend who is a really good artist and she does a lot of digital art so I started doing it because it looked a lot of fun, i started around July 2020.” -Sierra Kenney ‘23

Q: What is the best advice you’ve ever received?

Q: What is the best advice you’ve ever received?
A: “Some of the best advice I’ve received is to remember who you are because if you know then it won’t matter what others think. And know what you want to get out of life, not what others want because in the end if you regret anything you can’t go back and change it. You have to do what’s right for you because no matter what you do you can’t make everyone happy.” -Serene Hamzeh ‘24

Q: Do you have any pets? How many? A: “My family

Q: Do you have any pets? How many?

Q: Do you have any special talents?
A: “I started making rings as a quarantine hobby, it was just for fun and I wasn’t very good at it yet. I’ve been doing it for a couple months now and I sell them to people around Iowa City and i’ve shipped a couple orders to different states.” -Linnea Rietz ‘22

Q: What is one of your favorite memories
A: “One of my favorite memories is when me and my three best friends all traveled to Wyoming together and I was forced to go zip lining with the friend in the group that I am not as close with and it caused us to get closer.” -Clay Bopp ‘22

Q: Do you have any family traditions?
A: “A tradition my family always does is on every Christmas Eve we make a whole bunch of food. This usually is like little smokies with barbecue sauce and some sort of punch drink. After we stuff ourselves with food we then go open presents that we give to each other.” -Alex Arens ‘23

Q: What is your dream job?
A: “My dream job is to be a Sports Physical Therapist. I would really enjoy working with athletes and helping them get through injuries and recovery. I’ve volunteered at the sports medicine clinic so i’ve kinda had some experience with it. I think it would be especially cool if ultimately i was able to work with famous athletes and travel to different locations for my job as well.” -Margaret Liu ‘21
