Training for things
I want to do something that you have to train for. I'm just not sure what. I have plenty of time to do it. I'm a 15y/o girl just so you know. I'm homeschooled, so that's what I mean by I have plenty of time. I have a very flexible schedule. Anyway i'm just not sure what to do. Any ideas?
Any answers are greatly appreciated, take care.

Why not join a swim team? I used to be homeschooled, and I had a very flexible schedule too which allowed me to be very serious about swimming. I developed really close relationships with my team mates, and a few I know I will be in contact with for the rest of my life.
It really teaches you how to work hard for something, and overcome challenges.
Look for swim teams in your area. If you're not a great swimmer, it doesn't take long to learn the strokes, after that is just all about getting faster and improving your technique.
Of course, if swimming isn't your cup of tea (5am morning practices, swimming in the freezing rain, etc), you can try other sports, but at 15, it may be a little too late to join some of them (such as gymnastics, for example). There are different dance classes you can take (perhaps ballroom dancing?). Hockey? Soccer, basketball, volleyball? Figure skating (caution: very expensive).
But of course, being a swimmer, I'm going to recommend swimming. Because it is pretty easy to learn (the actual swimming part comes naturally to a lot of people), and you might even have a chance of being a really fast swimmer (even maybe at the Olympic level) in 5 to 8 years, if you train and work hard and are in good shape (oh and swimming WILL melt the pounds off... plus it works pretty much every muscle in your body). Although it is very challenging, both mentally and physically, it is fun and the relationships you build with team mates are really rewarding. Also you learn so much about yourself. AND you can even swim for college and get a scholarship.

um id say allstar cheerleading(for exaample a squad like Stingray Allstars in GA is a allstar squad - theyre not school based, or if your from England, North London Wildcats is an allstar squad based in north london again not school based), gymnastics or dance... because they are really competitive and need training.
