-Various family vacations</p>
<p>Work Experience:
A little nervous for this; I've done housesitting and dogsitting for neighbors before but that's it</p>
<p>Miscellaenous Stuff:
-Interviewed with an alumni
-I sent in an RCT (rollercoastertycoon) portfolio. It was definitely a risk but I showed how it's an outlet for creative expression and not just a video game. It was offbeat and I definitely wouldn't submit it to a school like Princeton or Harvard but I thought MIT would appreciate the creativity</p>
