School is out. Time to make money

Now that my sophomore semester has at last come to an end, I can focus on finding work and making money to fund my trip! I still have quite a ways to go in order to reach my goal of $16,000 but I'm confident that I will reach it. I refuse to take any loans or monies that I would have to pay back. I am motivated to find odd jobs to keep me busy throughout the summer. So if you know of anyone who could use a hard working kid in their yard, or someone to house sit, I'm you're guy! Anything that will contribute to my goal will be immensely appreciated.
