None because I started working at 15. So afterschool and weekends I would go into work to make money since I had to save money to pay my way through college. Some days I look back and wish I had had the time to join a sport or a club. But I was very happy to be able to pay for my college education in cash and not have any student loans to pay off.

I was on the rowing team. Isn't that preppy? It was damned hard work though. I did the swim team in the winter to cross train.

tabi_ja · May 2011

My fave was theater, but I was also heavily involved in (and loved) debate, forensics, orchestra (violin), choir, and scholar's bowl. Every nerdy thing they had.

I won the Rex Mahan award my senior year, which is granted to students who excel in debate, forensics, and theater, and I went to Nationals in Forensics that year, too. When I look back, I guess it's really not much of a surprise that I work in the Entertainment industry.

I took pitching lessons year round and played on multiple summer teams (like 5 one year). It paid off since I got a scholarship to play in college!

twh2006 · May 2011

I sulked, wore black and listened to the Cure and Sioxsie!

Acutally I went to a gifted hs. As if HS isn't hard enough trying to fit in, I went to the uber geek school with no football team or any varsity sports except tennis and soccer. I hate my parents for wanting me to go there all through hs. Now I love them for it.

I was in ROTC, played piano and creative writing club. I also did big sisters/big brothers. I loved drama and artsy stuff too, so I was involved with all of that.I also got involved jr. year in ROCK THE VOTE. When it first started. Ha! Showing my age!

jarobinson21 · May 2011

The first 1/2 I did theatre and newspaper. I moved the summer before junior year and got into a "rough" crowd. Then my extracurriculars became drinking and skipping school. I did get back on track for college though.

I was varsity volleyball captain, student body secretary and vice president (consecutive years), assistant editor of the school paper, member of our school's drama club, and a really active volunteer in our community.

ETA: I also worked two jobs, was active at church, and was a teacher's aide for biology and chemistry classes.
