Spending Time Wisely?

Hello all, I have a question I figured you might be able to assist me with. I have just graduated high school and am attending one of the Top 5 Target Undergraduate Colleges for Finance next year. This summer I have been working a bit(including work on my personal business) but now I have about a month free.

I just started a Python course today and I'm about 400 pages into the Intelligent Investor. I've been interested in Finance since about age 13 and have been reading ever since then. Should I continue to learn Python? What else should I do with my free 8 hours a day to put me ahead? I'd also appreciate tips for next year and the years coming.
