Stuff to Do While Waiting!

  • Watch High School Musical
  • Buy a Hydro Flask!
  • Read a really good book -- Personal recommendations are Scythe (futurish), Dune (science fiction, amazing and 800 pages long!!), Salt to the Sea (historical fiction), All the Light We Cannot See (also historical fiction), and One Of Us Is Lying (mystery -- could not stop reading, my parents had to force me to leave the house because all I wanted to do was read it) (I highly recommend the Burn for Burn series if you're into YA fiction or if you liked TATBILB. Or just reread any of your favorite books, that's what I've been doing)
  • Watch (or rewatch) Friends (again 10 seasons, so will take up quite a bit of time!)
  • Look at pre-college programs! I heard most have deadlines in March so it should take your mind off of M9

  • Make a rock pet family and take photos.
