There really aren't a lot of things to do. There are a few shops, but they get old fast.

Get involved in other activities that show a representation of your personality. There is the gallery downtown and volunteer experiences that can be exciting. I really want to go to Arcadia to study health-education, so I would volunteer and have a fun event to teach others about health. Their may be a few shops near Arcadia but Philadelphia has a lot amazing things happening all over.
