If you ask any college student what their favorite season of the year is, most likely they will reply with summer. How come? Because it’s the one season where most students do not have to go to class. Here’s a rundown of what a typical summer looks like:
1. The Beginning Stage: The minute you finish your last final of the semester.
Ah yes! All of your hard work studying (or procrastinating) for those exams paid off and now you are finally free! At least for the next 3 months! You don’t have to lift a page or calculate useless equations during your well-deserved break.
3. The Second Week Stage: Sleeping all day long.
4. The Third Week Stage: Participating in all of your favorite summer festivities!
This is the time where everyone takes advantage of the warm weather and goes swimming, tanning, to concerts, and to festivals. Nighttime activities include movies, bonfires, and late night drives.
5. The 1 Month Stage: Complete boredom!
After going on vacation, sleeping for a week straight, and doing almost everything on your summer bucket list, you start to get bored of it. You miss all of your college friends and the late night hangout sessions. Scrolling through Facebook all day and creeping on ex-boyfriends and old friends no longer amuses you.
6. The August Stage: Where did summer go? It was June just last week!
7. The Day Before School Stage: I hate my life! How many more days until winter break?
Don’t let all of your free time during the summer go to waste! Make a summer bucket list of all of the things you hope to do and accomplish and actually DO them! Go on fun spontaneous adventures to the beach or a neighboring city! Host a bonfire or go out for a nice dinner on Saturday night with your closest friends! Do anything that will make you say, “Wow, that was an AMAZING summer that’ll I’ll never forget!”
