6 THINGS YOU SHOULD BE DOING THIS SUMMER



Summer brake is here!

Summer brake is totally different from when we were younger, no more waking up late and sitting at home, the majority of us are hustling now. This doesn't mean we cant have a fun and productive summer. I have compiled of list of 6 things you should do over the summer as a college student.

  1. Get a job

Getting a job over the summer is perfect because you don't have to worry about school and there are tons of things you can do with the money you've earned.

      a. Pay off any loans, bills etc.

       b. If you don't work during the school year this could be money for going out with friends or any other things you may want while in school.

       c. Save up for a big purchase (My option currently, cant wait for my Chanel GST!) this big purchase can be anything that would take a few months or even years to obtain such as an apartment, car etc.

       d. Just save it! If you're living with parents and they're not making you pay anything, just save all of your money. It could come in handy in the future.
   
     There are tons of things you can do with your money, but please be smart about it!

2. Have an internship

Internships are great because they give you an idea of what it will be like in your field. Everyone should do at least one internship its great for networking, having experience and ultimately deciding if this is the career for you. Also it doesn't hurt to have an internship that pays #winning 

3. Travel

Traveling by yourself or with friends is always a great experience and will leave you with so many great memories! I would recommend taking at least 1 trip during the summer even if it's just a little small weekend trip. Getting out and relaxing is great for your mental and physical health.


4. Work out and eat right

Since you're no longer in your dorm room this is the perfect time to start cooking healthy meals and working to lose any weight you may have gained in college. You'll also be 10x more confident and excited when school starts back because you'll be looking and feeling great!


  5. Connect with old and new friends

Going away for college can result in losing contact with old friends. Summer is the perfect time to hit up old friends and make some new memories. You could even invite your friends from back home and your friends from college to all hangout one day! Make sure you're staying in contact with the friends you made you in college.


  6. Start setting goals

Since we are no longer kids its important to know what you want in life and the things you want to achieve. Plus it's great to look back on what all you've accomplished over the summer. Set some goals, stick to them and work everyday towards those goals. It's such a rewarding feeling.


(Optional )

7. Take summer classes

Taking summer classes can help you graduate earlier or stay on track for graduation. While this isn't something you should necessarily be doing it's something to keep in mind!
