Help!! Summer plans

<p>Ok so here's the deal. I reallly want to go to a good school. I live on the west coast and my parents don't want me to go to the east coast which bummed me out cuz i can't pick any of the ivies. Anyways I really want to go to Stanford since it's close too. I was hoping I could do something over the summer that would make me a strong candidate. I've missed deadlines for good summer programs because I essentially wasn't going to do them. Then I was working on getting an internship with a doc but the doc backed out. And I really want to make something of this summer. What can I do? I'm applying REA to Stanford premed if that helps. Please anything will help :)</p>
