Do you know Hu Andy Hu is? Senior Andy Hu is the president of the Magnet Government. He is seventeen years of age. He went to Nightingale Middle School but sadly didn’t have the privilege of having Ms. Garcia as his counselor.
In the interview Andy expressed his love and personal feelings about the Magnet program. When asked if he’s enjoyed his four years in the Magnet, he replied, “Yes, I have, I’ve loved it, it’s been a great experience, and the teachers made it all the better.” He also mentioned was his deep appreciation for Senior Seminar. His Senior Seminar Project was to build an electric generator from scratch. It was fun at times and at times frustrating, but he still found the whole process very rewarding.
A student of the Magnet, Jeff Flores, asked Andy, “How did you become so successful in the Magnet?” The response was heartfelt: “My parents, my family, and my friends were all very supportive and stood behind me the whole way. Also I’m very competitive, and I’ve had a lot of competition along the way. Oh yeah, by the way, Jeff’s sexy.” His tips to anyone who wants to be successful are to get involved with the Magnet, get to know your teachers and ask questions.
His plans after high school are to go to college. He’s applied to four UCs, and Caltech. He’s hoping to get accepted to Caltech; so far he’s gotten accepted to UC Irvine.
Hu’s hobbies include dancing and music. Andy plays guitar and has been playing since his freshman year. He practices three hours a week or whenever he’s in the mood and so far can play Yankee-doodle. Break dancing is also a hobby of Andy; he has been dancing for four years now. Dream jobs for Andy would include becoming a rock star or becoming a professional break dancer. Even though Andy doesn’t participate in any sports, he still likes to be fit.
So if you run into Andy, congratulate him on his success in the Magnet. Plus wish him well on his future endeavors.
