Question regarding ECs

<p>I have a few questions regarding my extra curricular activities.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>They give us a space to describe our EC. How long should the description be and what should it generally consist of?</p></li>
<li><p>I've worked for a charity organization for 3 years and it's my biggest EC. But does this count as community service? It involves fundraising events and a lot of discussion about pressing issues in an orphanage that we run and how to manage it. Does community service only involve stuff that you've done in your own community (like mentoring/tutoring, working at an old people's home etc.), or stuff that you've done for other communities?</p></li>
<li><p>I work as a freelance photographer, graphic designer and web designer. I started a business with two classmates and we're now earning up to 150 euros per photograph, working either for people over the internet or for people from our local area. However, I don't know how I can add this as an EC. It would require a fair bit of explaining. Furthermore, there's no fixed amount of time per week that we work on this - it can vary from 1 hour to 15 hours depending on whether or not we have a project to work on. How do I put down the hours per week in this situation? Do I average it out (e.g we work on about 10 projects a year, each is about 15 hours so 150 hours per year and 150/52=about 3 hours per week)?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>i’d average the hours out like that. for example, i work on my films about 5 hours a week during the school year but about 5 hours A DAY during the summer. so i averaged it to 10 hours a week, period.</p>
