Oh zob, you have no idea. :-)
Math team, academic bowl, academic olympiad (yes, they were
different!), debate, model UN, theatre competitions (not just
performances, but actual competitions), and three summers at six-week
nerd camps (one summer each for Latin, computer science, and math).
Oh yeah, straight As and perfect attendance, too. :-P
I did play varsity tennis though, so I wasn't a total nerd!
