The feeling of freedom after you handled your final exam paper was an epic feeling. Suddenly all the pain, stress and fear fade away. A much more carefree feeling suddenly rush in. But then, after certain time you’ll start wondering. What should I do for this 3 month break?
Well, there are plenty option which you can chose. The choice is yours, but you may want to think about it wisely, otherwise you may gain nothing at the end. Let us give you some ideas.
- Study
You just finished a dreadful long semester, why should you stress yourself even more right? Wrong. Study does not mean that you have to attend formal classes, submit assignment, do research or homework. You can study for fun. Maybe you can learn new skill like cooking or swimming. Take a short course on kayaking or life saving. Or maybe venture into your artistic side of you, you can do music or even enroll into some short classes for basic painting. You’ll find a different side of life, which you never imagined before.
- Work
What is better than study and be paid for it. You see, learning something does not mean you need to always read a book. You can learn how to fix a car by working as an assistant mechanic, or learn how to cook by working as assistant in a restaurant, learn how to make sales by becoming salesman in the mall, choose what suit you, what you love to do, and gain some extra cash and experience at the same time.
- Travel
This one is a little bit cliché, most people travel during holidays. Travel is no more a problem today where you can easily get a cheap flight and budget hotels. If you have extra money, travelling is something good for you. You can earn money when you work in the future, but you will find it hard to find a time to travel when you already working and having families. So, do travel if you’re still young. Maybe this is the only chance you’ll have. Planned it with friends, it will be fun.
- Volunteer
If you love helping and contributing to the community why not becoming a volunteer. You can have a new experience and also make some new friends of same interest along the way. There are a lot of volunteering activities you can do, from becoming a crew for charity run to help cleaning animals poop in the zoo. All you need is some research on the net with few clicks to find your suitable interest.
- Read
Aha. This is what I will do for most of my holidays. Nothing gave me peace better that sit down, relax with a book in my hand. Me, nature and a book is a definition of a perfect day for me. You may don’t have enough time to read books that you like, so long break is the most suitable time to read and enjoy.
So, have you made up your mind?
