Upperclass Acts

Adrian Lutz

ROLE MODEL(S): My parents and my uncle who is a software developer

MOST POSITIVE MOMENT: Learning how to drive with my dad.

ACTIVITIES @ PTHS: Engineering at LACC

PET PEEVES: My biggest pet peeve is having to drive a car with an automatic transmission. I prefer to have full control of my car with control of the clutch and gear selection, and I severely dislike driving cars without that control.

FONDEST MEMORY OF HIGH SCHOOL SO FAR: My most fond memory of high school has to be going to Chicago my freshman year to watch a performance of Romeo and Juliet. After the performance we got to have pizza, and I really enjoyed hanging out with my friends during that trip.

WHAT MY FRIENDS WILL REMEMBER ABOUT ME: Me constantly playing with my 3x3 cube

3 MAJOR AREAS OF INTEREST: Architectural engineering, computer hardware, classic cars

HOW WOULD YOU SPEND $1,000,000? Instead of living a wealthy lifestyle, I would share a large part of it with my family, paying off my parents' house and car loans. I'd then spend the money toward starting a business in computer building for clients, as well as build my own fully custom racecar out of a 90's classic German sedan. IF YOU WERE STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND, WHAT 3 ITEMS WOULD YOU WANT WITH YOU? My 3x3 Rubik's cube, one of my best friends, and a box of white cheddar Cheez-Its LAST WORDS OF ADVICE: “Don't live to make money. The happiness money can bring you is short- lived. Rather, live a life you will remember. That happiness will endure forever.”

PLANS AFTER HIGH SCHOOL: After high school I plan on volunteering at world headquarters of Jehovah's Witnesses in Warwick, NY, then work toward building my own business working with computer hardware.
