Junior - competed in entrepreneurship and placed in the region(there is no 1st,2nd in regionals), 1st in the state, international competitor
Senior Year- going to do a service project on anorexia(well see how I do on that), and This year(junior year) I was appointed Chief Executive Officer of DECA. DECA is really big at school.</p>
<p>(NEXT QUESTION- IM THE SECOND PERSON TO EVER GET CEO. USUALLY THERES JUST A PRESIDENT, HOWEVER, I WAS GIVEN CEO WHICH IS OVER THE PRESIDENT AND THE CONCEPT IS THAT I PLAN AND THEY EXECUTE. BUT ITS AN EXTREMELY PRESTIGIOUS POSITION, AND I DONT KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN THAT IN MY ESSAY THANKS IN ADVANCE. JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA, IM LEAVING NEXT WEEK TO AN OFFICER SUMMIT IN D.C. AND THERES ONLY A HANDFUL OF CEO'S OVERALL AND THIS IS NATIONAL.)</p>

Rho Kappa - Current Executive VP of Rho Kappa ( social studies honor society)

Cross Country - Sophomore, Junior, and Senior year (Varsity sophomore but not junior-ya I know embarrassing)
Track - sophomore year
Guitar/Piano - self-taught. since im in like 6th grade piano. 9th grade started guitar.
(QUESTION - HOW DO I EXPLAIN THAT, AND IM IN A BAND SO IVE PLAYED A COUPLE SHOWS, SO HOW DO I EXPLAIN THAT ITS NOT JUST SOME KID THAT MAKES NOISE, BUT I ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT IM DOING-THANS IN ADVANCE)</p>
<p>Programming - My school at one point had 5500+ kids. theres like 30+ clubs. Communication is tough. I live in a comfortable neighborhood, so kids have iPhones and stuff like that. Therefore, beginning next year (pending Apple approval), my school will have its own iPhone app which composes of the weeks upcoming events, the monthly calendar, the website where you can check your grades, and the schools website.
(first school to ever do this, my individual idea) as you can see im proud of this one, i had to read god knows how many books</p>
<p>Jobs-
Summer Sophomore- 35 hours a week, counselor at summer camp

exiting)</p>
<p>Volunteering -
Through NHS a lot, about 100+ hours with the white hours
Summer of freshman year - total of 230 hours at a sumer camp
Random things through out the years - about 600 hours
TRYING TO HIT 1000!!!</p>
<p>Notes- Well I tried to be well rounded. I played a sport, did my service, studied, partied, and had a good time my whole HS career. With that said, that is probably why I dont have straight A's and whatever else I am missing. Oh well. Once again guys if you read all this, post if YOU need anything because your help is greatly appreciated.
Oh and the essay is probably going to be about DECA and how that taught me real life realities. Then its going to transition into how at nationals I learned that keeping it simple is sometimes better and consequently made me realize a simpler way into making the iPhone app which makes it available for Everyone not just iPhone owners, through the internet.</p>
