<p>****Extracurriculars
*Sports: Spring Track (gr 9) Winter Track (gr 9, 10, 11)
*Community Service: not a big fan? only did what i had to do to get into national honors society.. im sorry i guess that makes me sound like a horrible person, but our (horrible) advisor only let 4 people at each place, so i didn't get what i wanted (sorting toys and food) and ended up filing papers for two summers, not sure how that would make me feel like i contributed to the community....
*Work experience: held a part time job all junior year and just got a new job last summer that i was more interested in.
*Clubs: Some random ones, most notably editor in yearbook club and (now ex-)president of artclub... nothing jaw-dropping
*I did attend a summer art program at MassArt that had an elective in Architecture</p>
