You did it. You FINALLY got that college degree. Some of us are starting our jobs as soon as possible, but some of us are a little more flexible this summer and want to enjoy life a bit before we have to be real adults. Here's a list of a few things every college grad should consider doing this summer.
1. TRAVEL.
You don't have
to buy an expensive plane ticket and go backpacking through Europe.
Traveling can be cheap if you do it the right way. Take a road trip
with the squad. Spontaneously head to the beach or an amusement park
or something.
2. Spend some time at home.
It's been a long time and you know your parents miss the days when you were freeloading on their couch all summer, even if they won't admit it.
3. If you haven't already, move into your own place.
You're an educated person now, let society know it. You do not want to become a sweaty, basement dwelling 35 year old playing video games in your underwear waiting for the pizza that dad ordered.
4. GET A JOB!
5. Spend some time outside.
You didn't get to do this much while you were working all those summer jobs, hit the beach or the pool or go to the park and take a hike.
6. Volunteer.
This doesn't
seem to be the route most college graduates take, but there's
nothing stronger than the heart of a volunteer. Do something good
for the community that's been good to you.
Let loose for once. Finals are over! Get together with some friends and let loose, you deserve it.
5. Move to a different city.
This usually comes with getting a job in that city. Regardless, a change of scenery could be a great new endeavor to tackle.
6. Splurge on something for yourself.
If you've achieved the almost unachievable (saving money in college), treat yourself. Buy something nice: a new TV, a video game console, a car, a plane ticket, maybe even a house!
7. Eat some a lot of pizza. Why not?
8. Start working out. It couldn't hurt, right?

9. Take up a new hobby. Go
rock-climbing or learn to fish.

10. Host or attend a barbecue. Again, why not?
One word: Bonfire.
11. SPEND SOME TIME WITH THE SQUAD.
Gone are the days when you could stay up until 5AM
playing games and watching TV. Cherish the time you have with your
second family. #SquadForever
12. Stay up all night for the fun of it.
Watch the sunset and sun rise; you won't want to pull all nighters when you're old anyway
13. Go to a concert or music festival.
14. Have a pajama day in with friends and watch movies.
15. Go on a date.
16. Change your look.
Whether it's a new wardrobe or a new hair color, experimenting is always fun.
17. Go to a carnival or a state fair.
18. Eat breakfast for dinner.
Find the nearest waffle house and have at it!
19. Do something daring.
Go skydiving or bungee jumping. Live a little.
20. “Do good,” the wise words of Mr. Feeny from Boy Meets World.
Whatever you plan on doing this summer, just remember that life is short and you want to make sure you live life the way you want to, and no one else.
