5 Things To Do Over Summer When You Feel Like There's Nothing Else To Do

In This Article:

There is usually nothing to do in the town I'm from. For goodness sake, my town is known for the world's largest corn maze. That alone should say, what the heck do you do? But surprisingly, you can usually find something to do.

No matter where you are, the beach is always a great idea. If you don't have the ocean, the next best is a lake. You can play sand volleyball, catch, spike ball, and even bring lunch with you. It's a great way to spend time with friends you haven't seen since last summer because of school.

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep.
