<p>I'm a rising junior. This summer, I'm vacationing in India with my family from June 15th to August 10th. I'm regretting scheduling such a long vacation because it essentially means I'm wasting a whole summer I could have otherwise used to do some volunteer work, take some college classes, etc. I've already asked around here and there's really no way I can do any sort of volunteer work - there just aren't opportunities for teenagers to do that sort of thing here. I can't get a job either. Basically, anything productive I would have done in America, I can't do here.</p>
<p>Are there any options for me? I just want some kind of EC activity that will ensure I don't waste away this summer (and that I can use to show adcoms that I didn't just spend this summer doing nothing). I'm open to literally anything. I really don't want to just throw away the summer before my junior year. </p>
