What do you think about my summer????

I volunteered at canoe camps and went camping over the summer… In other words, I don’t think you need to do anything particularly groundbreaking. Summers are for doing happy things you don’t have time to do during the school year. Explore random interests, read good books, write a novel, I dunno.

Nuclear physics sounds really exciting, not because it looks good on an application but because it’s nuclear physics. I would definitely go. :)

Spanish is also very exciting. I took Spanish classes in high school and now go to a different Spanish-speaking country every spring break–studying Spanish turned out to be one of the best valuable decisions I made in high school.

Art is fun–you could take summer classes at a local studio, maybe. If you’re really interested in teaching yourself I would recommend deviantART: [deviantART: where ART meets application!](http://www.■■■■■■■■■■■■■■/) For a while I was interested in photography (and I still am, but not enough to plan on doing it professionally) and I got a lot of valuable critique on DA when I posted stuff. You can also learn a lot just by browsing the site and reading what critique other artists give each other.
