I just got accepted for an IT internship not the CS one(Gotta take what you can get) I know I need more projects. If i can't get an CS internship, I'll take the IT one and tailor it to be more CS oriented. I'm also gonna put my final project from DS&A and my personal project over the summer on when I complete them

The thing I've heard over and over again is that hiring managers don't really care that you worked as a cashier several years ago, and I think I'd agree if I were them. If you don't have prior experience relevant you should probably have your projects front and center, and if you really still want to list the old jobs that aren't very relevant you can put them at the bottom.
Same thing goes for your technical skills
Other than that it looks good to me for what it's worth

Quality over quantity imo. There's no magic number but whatever you think best represents your skills and looks nice on the page.
I like imagining it from the person looking through resumes perspective. You open another PDF and it's just a giant wall of text. You quickly glance over it. You've seen the same things 100 times now: weather app, something else, something else something else, none of its very unique. You pick up the next one, it's a blank page that just says "cured cancer". You're like "damn nobody can fault me for hiring a guy who cured cancer" boom. Straight to the point. But if cured cancer was stuffed between weather app #2 and weather app #3 then ehhhh idk.
I don't know if that was helpful but basically you want it to be as short as possible while presenting you at the top of your game.
I think your 2 projects there are great. Depends how good the third one is.
