What do you guys have in plan for the summer?

I plan to go out for more walks and venture out to places I haven't been to, I live in London so there's quite a lot of stuff to see!

I also wanna get ahead of the curve and look for work experience, I have one lined up as well as a few university open days (I actually plan to have a day of going to different unis I wanna go, like just to visit them see what they look like). I might do some online courses and grow my skillset cos apparently you need some for university applications

I'm gonna start working out again too, in February I did 100 pushups a day and, albeit horrible form, I saw improvements so I'd like to carry on but with a full-body workout everyday!

Also wanna learn to cook basic things so I not only am making those workout gains more efficient, but I'm also becoming more self-sufficient and all that cool stuff

So yeah! Hope you guys don't have plans as boring as mine - let's hear them! :)

London Is a nice place, I Used to live there. Where I currently live there isn't much to do, I mean its a really nice place with lots of good scenery but I've pretty much done everything lol.

I'm probs gonna go out for walks in the fields , work and go on holiday with my family for a week.

First off, absolutely you need work experience and skills!! College admissions love to see a lot of variety in ec's, community service, hobbies/skills, etc. Also, we're on the same boat because I will also be working my first ever real job this summer! It's not a business job but I'm working as a camp counselor for 4-6th grade girls (10-12-year-olds). I will also be a reading tutor for a 1st-grade girl (7 years old)!! On top of both of these things, I also have to schedule college visits, start college essays, apply for scholarships, do summer reading & summer assignments, and take my final SAT. So yeah, junior to senior year summer sucks. But at least I'll be occupied!! :)

Good luck this summer!! :D
