Summer Plans

written by Tanvir Rahman

As the semester draws to a close many of us are thinking of our summer plans and it is never too early to start planning. Here are some things you can do to be productive and make the most out of your summer.

Internship/Part-time Job

Getting an internship or job is one of the best things you can do for your summer. It is important, especially these days, to get some sort of experience in your desired field and school can only teach so much. Getting a real-life experience is great for learning new things and really experiencing your field.

Working Out

Summer is great opportunity to get in shape and exercise. Take advantage of your new free time to get into shape and really focus on your body and health.

Going Back Home

Summer usually means going back to the family and hometown. Take this opportunity to spend time with family and go on a vacation. Take advantage of time you have now to visit family because you may not be able to as easily depending on your career and location.

Summer School

It’s always good to check into academics. Summer can be a good opportunity to catch up on credits or get ahead.

Get Organized

Summer is also a good time to refresh and restart. Look into social media, organizations you’re involved in, and other things that need to be refreshed. Summer is a good time to plan for the following semester and set goals for what you want to accomplish. Get your resume, portfolio, and professional skills ready for the new year.

Relax!

Summer is also about relaxing so make sure to make time to do things that make you happy. Spend time with friends, family, or just have a night in at home. You should be productive during the summer but remember to have fun too! Summer is a good chance to travel and do something new!

These are just some of the things you can do during the summer but the possibilities can be endless. Take time to think about yourself and what you need to do. Think about what you want to accomplish and you can have great summer plans!
