Since you only have a couple months before applying to colleges, I think the best you can do is take your current extracurriculars to the next level. If you can list your hobbies or anything that might be an extracurricular, then I can provide detailed advice on how to improve them.
A part time job (restaurant, store, etc.), volunteering by committing to one organization each week (hospital, teen leadership programs, library aide, local clean-ups, etc.) and one big passion project (such as making and donating 200 knitted caps, growing a community garden, organizing a book drive with over 100 donations, developing & publishing an app or book etc.) are extracurriculars that could make a big impact in a small amount of time.
