Rowing for one season, competed in a mathematical modeling competition and didn’t win but got a special mention from the judges, traveled to Ecuador for a month as a volunteer project, did some maths and physics tutoring.
Personal projects are pretty limited, but I’ve got a Django play money prediction market site that I could get running again in a weekend.
Those all sound pretty good to me. You might even come across as overqualified for menial work. If you want to reach a little bit, have you thought about trying to get freelance software development work? Getting paid to improve skills is always nice right? If you can’t find anyone in real life ODesk.com is an option… if you build up a reputation on that site, you’ll be able to work remotely from anywhere in the world. A degreeless friend of mine was making over $50 an hour after over-delivering for ODesk clients for 6-12 months.

Beyond that, there’s nothing that leaps to mind.
