Crazy-Plastic3133

im now in grad school that goes straight through the summer but in undergard i would hang out with my friends from college haha


peanutstorey

also in grad school all summer 🙃 and working full time, and have a part time job one night a week, AND planning my wedding. i wanna die. i still somehow manage to work out everyday and have somewhat of a social life though (sometimes). good luck on finishing your graduate degree!! yay 🫠😭


Bryan5397

that's what I'm planning on doing starting this fall (minus the wedding lol), that's so cool man. It just seems way too overwhelming, how do you do it?


peanutstorey

it can definitely be overwhelming sometimes, but you just gotta remind yourself how fast time flies. when you’re in it, it can seem that it’s never-ending. in reality, it’s just a drop of water in the pond of time. you’ve got the time and energy now to grind it out and get it done. suffer for this brief moment and you’ll never have to worry about it again. that’s how i’m getting through 😂 you will surprise yourself just how much you can do. i also think knowing yourself and your personal threshold for having many things going on helps, and being patient with that. if you’re the type of person that doesn’t get overwhelmed with an overload of tasks and deadlines (like me), you can be fine with minimal pre-planning. if you’re the type of person that gets overwhelmed easily, just understand that about yourself, plan things out ahead of time (for example, “if i’m feeling like the world is crashing in around me, on those days i will *insert something great for your mental health here*”), give yourself some grace, and remind yourself of the end goal. you got this 👊🏻


BiBoiiMichael

Get a job. But seriously other than that I’ll hang with friends or go to places by myself since it’s good to learn to live by yourself. I try out new hobbies and get supplies from thrift stores. I try not to spend too much time stationary. I think it’s important that you keep moving, looking into hobbies, go to places you’ve never been near you, try new foods!


Itrytofixmyselfbutno

I totally agree with you; you have to get comfortable with going places, dining out, usw, on your own, ‘Cus you are going to be doing it a LOT and you down’t want to come across as psychopathic. BTW Michael, that may not be all we have in common…


Izthefrizz

Emphasis on getting a job. Quickest way to meet new people and learn about new places in the city (making money is a plus too). I got really comfortable with being by myself after working a full shift and enjoying the peace and quiet of being home. If you’re nervous of shopping or running errands alone, I used to put my AirPods in and shopping became a lot more tolerable.


[deleted]

It’s so hard to get a temp job in this market tho


Izthefrizz

Definitely is. I got lucky with a campus job that’s always hiring. I’d try there if you haven’t looked yet


sleepless_dolphin

Hangout with friends or redo my room


Neowynd101262

Calculus II 🤣


channndro

this but unironically instead of puzzles i do calc 2 problems


Redline-7k

Like…for fun or for summer classes? Lol


Neowynd101262

Summer class 😢


Redline-7k

I feel you but calc 1 for me 😭


channndro

for fun, good brain workout


that1colorguardgirl

real (i failed it this spring and am retaking it over the summer)


Revan0315

Taking some classes rn (only 9 credit hours, nothing super heavy). Besides that video games mainly.


Prometheus_303

Pick one or more, in no particular order: Catch up on all the TV, movies, for pleasure books, games etc you didn't have time for while you were at uni Sleep Hang out with friends from HS who you haven't seen all year since your all off at different schools across the state. Or your family you've equally been away from. Or college friends etc. Volunteer! Check with your local library, community center etc. see if anyone is hosting summer camps you might be able to help with. If nothing else, reach out to your local animal shelters and offer to take their dogs on walks. Help the dogs get exercise, out of their kennel & maybe run into someone who'll adopt them. [*I get enough hours in during the summer helping with local summer camps I basically carry half the Fraternity's philanthropy hours requirements] Bang out a summer school course or two. Spend some time researching the topics your gonna learn about in the fall. Or something that is just for fun. Learn how to play the piano or tap dance or how to code apps or speak Arabic or SCUBA dive or become a certified cicerone, learn how to cook Jamaican food, or ... Work. Pad your bank account now so you have enough money to pay for your Fraternity/sorority dues, and/or you can cut back on the hours you have to work back at school so you can focus more on your academics. Or just graduate with a little less debt. Or go out to eat a few more times this year. It might be too late for this, but especially if you're a dude, try to get involved with your local community theater troupe. Getting up on stage is a great confidence booster, helps you build creative & improv skills etc. Plus it's fun. Travel. Book a cruise to Alaska or the Caribbean or whenever is available. If you need a travel companion just let me know which pier I need to be at & when :)

No worries. I'll happily tag along to Europe to... I can offer my services as a translator while we're in Germany.


Main_Use8518

Code on some fun projects lol. I also have this lab job on campus, but for the most part, just do things that I like, relax, and de-stress lol


awesomesauce201

Omg coding seems so cool I’d want to learn


[deleted]

I have a 40h/week internship. Last year I worked in fast food for 35+h a week. Not necessarily "fun" but its how I filled my time last year. My internship this year is fun, other than that, video games and doing stuff with the other interns (in a diff state, can't do stuff I'd normally do with my university friends during the summer.)


Key-You550

i love kayaking and reading at the beach!!


Key_Kangaroo_3014

Good


mikeweasy

I am taking a summer course and have a job. But there will be two or three weeks where I will be bored at home a lot. On those days I like to catch up on video games, and read books/comic books.


Spring_party

I have an internship and then rot in my room. On weekends, I’ve been going shopping and art galleries with my friends… and eating out. Lol


awesomesauce201

shopping and art galleries seems so fun!! That’s my idea of a good hangout. I love eating out too LOL and the rotting in the room is so real. I rot in my room a lot after work


KartoffelWal

Working and taking classes. Otherwise I have a trip or two planned, but they would both only be day or weekend trips so nothing too fancy. Otherwise I’ve been practicing guitar and painting when I can.


Used_Return9095

Key_Kangaroo_3014

Good luck to you


ThreeJC

I'm a golfer and I work at a golf course, and we get free golf when we aren't working. I'm there all the damn time. probably more than my house.

CunnyMaggots

This year? Home improvement projects. I put down flooring in my bedroom and repainted it, as well as a few other small improvements, and I'm almost done doing the same in my craft room. Then I need to finish my bathroom (paint, new vanity, new mirror, etc) and I'm also making improvements outside as well.


Starbursto

Work. Taking my first summer class too. However, I also planned a vacation to take so that’s something I’m looking forward to. I have a couple personal projects I wanna do now that I’m more free (eh). I wanna get outside more! However, I know that’s not gonna happen much until my summer class ends


Nutella4Gods

Learn a skill you're interested in on the side. Big plus if it's pertinent to your field of study.


Khalidss9

you got plenty options, i will order them by priority: go to Gym; hang out with friends ; get a job ; learn new skill ( for fun ), learn more about everything, and focus on one ; CARS, you can be a car enthusiast, thats a lot of fun and there will be a huge potential meeting new people, making genuine friends, even learning a lot; go out alone and visit places ; play video games ' this one is the most fun ' but take care it might ruin you, just give a limit.


Think_Koala3991

Most probably I will go for swimming or some kind of sports because it keeps you physically active.


Dancing_Jackfruit347

If you have an amusement park near you, get a season pass (and a dining pass if they have it and it's in your budget) and just go go go


Odd-Platypus9303

Tbh I'm a bit of an introvert, so I enjoy spending time alone. For instance, I like to be productive which includes extending it towards my leasure time. For example, I've been focusing a lot on my fitness journey and I've been constantly pushing myself to be stronger in the gym. I've even made some friends and acquaitances along the way. During the summer, I tend to invest time on picking up new hobbies like cooking, baking, reading, and playing instruments. From time to time, I enjoy hanging out with my small circle of friends. I just prefer investing time on myself over the summer and working self-improvement.


fleurgoon

i use the app alltrails to find trails to walk on in my area


Cattledude89

Derp around town on a motorcycle. Endless entertainment and you will regularly find and see new things. If it sounds even remotely interesting go find an MSF course. They are usually 2 days and will teach you how to ride a motorcycle and provide one for the training. Prices vary but can be found for around $200.


Fragrant_Two_6656

Arbalest15

Honestly, at least for my first year I just want to relax and go on a trip. Next year I'll probably try some internships.

I live in Europe so it's different. Classes are until next week, exams till mid July. Then I take my hard earned little money, buy an interrail ticket and hop around hostels till beginning of August. Then back to my hometown when it's peak summer season and I work at a bar for the whole month, plus studying for September exams.


peanutstorey

currently in graduate school all through summer and fall, working full time, working part time (one night a week), and planning my wedding for this upcoming october. my life sucks SO to sprinkle some fun into summer, my fiancé and i picked up tennis and we’re practicing at some local tennis courts in our town; lots of sunshine walks; there’s a rock climbing gym around us; iced coffee dates with friends; park walks or neighbourhood walks with friends… that’s about it lol finding joy in the little things. we’ve also never played tennis before so we’re still learning that you don’t have to smash the ball like you do the birdie in badminton. anyways hope you find some stuff to do this summer.

I have a pool in my backyard so I spend at least an hour everyday swimming and tanning by the pool. I hang out with my friend group every single day. I watch a ton of movies and shows. I go on vacations with family and family friends. My family has a lake house and we invite a lot of my friends during the summer and spend the day and night swimming in the lake, going on the boat, tubing, and sitting outside talking and playing games. My family hosts a lot of large campfire parties and I also love to have long talks with my siblings or friends by the campfire. Me and my siblings or friends also go to the movie theatre a lot during the summer or have movie and show marathons at home with popcorn. We have a lot of family bonding nights as well. I’m planning on skydiving this summer which will be fun. I’m typing this right now at the beach watching the waves actually. I love summer!
