You have a month off from school, but binge-watching on Netflix can only do so much. If you're not going away for break, things can get pretty boring after a while (you might even start to miss being on campus). Here is a list of things you can do to salvage your break and enjoy it before you have to go back.
1. Check out Groupon
If you haven't already followed Tiffany Haddish's advice on using Groupon, now you should! It's a great way to get good deals on almost anything. You don't need to break your bank to go out anymore, you can have fun on a budget. There are so many options like an escape room, karaoke, rock climbing, and more for cheap. So take out your laptop, grab your card, round up a group of friends, and get ready to have some fun.
2. Explore
Have you ever felt like you barely know anything about where you live? Well now is the perfect opportunity to go out and explore! Venture to places beyond your town and get to know your local area more. If you can't go on a big trip this break, why not take mini ones?
3. Pick up a hobby
If you don't already have one, it's the perfect time to find one. You have an ample amount of free time, so why not spend it learning something new? You can practice your cooking/baking skills, learn a new language or polish up on an old one, take up knitting, or you can even take random classes at the library for free; the possibilities are endless.
4. Find a job
No one likes being a broke college student, so let's start filling out those applications. Getting some work experience and earning a little cash to spend now and next semester isn't such a bad idea.
5. Visit a pop-up museum
Pop-up museums are the "it" thing right now. They are taking art museums to the next level. Pop-ups provide a fun interactive experience along with cool art. These Instagrammable hotspots will be perfect for your feed, but make sure you go fast because they aren't there for long.
6. Go see a play or musical
I saw my first musical in ninth grade and fell in love. Don't let the thought of high prices discourage you, there are some good Broadway musicals you can see for as low as $49. If you search around you can find good seats and even better prices. Everyone should experience going to a play or musical once in their life.
7. Go to a concert
It doesn't have to be a big one, you can go and support your local artists unless you have someone you want to see and have the money to spend. If concerts aren't your thing, comedy clubs can be a good alternative.
