I had a stressful and academically challenging second semester at school and so I decided that I would just hang out and play soccer this summer rather than try to get a job or an internship or volunteer position. Now I am regretting this decision, partially because I am getting a little bored and partially because I realize that I may be wasting time in which I could be working or interning or volunteering in order to aid in my college application process (and, of course, making money or helping people). Though I will only be a high school sophomore in the fall, I would like to keep my college options open and know that many prestigious colleges are interested in how applicants utilized their summers.
That said, what can I do in western Wisconsin to salvage what's left of my summer (keeping in mind I will be gone the first 2 weeks of August and can't drive)? ...Or is it simply too late? Thanks in advance for your honesty!

I would say that for a job, it is too late, and your are still a bit young for an intern position, leave these for the people who need them now.
BUT you can still volunteer at the local soup kitchen,Salvation Army, or for your local political party office that you tend to agree with.
The fact that you are regretting your decision now tells me that you will do allright in the future.
