text: Doing something else around the community would really get yourself out there to make new friends and open up new opportunities. This would help you later in life when you might need to make friends in college, and those friends would help you out before your exams and other times like that. All in all this is just something everybody should do. It doesn't pack your schedule too much because, if your day is already too chaotic then you probably already are doing an extracurricular activity and you don't need to do another.
