Where did the time go? Seemed just like yesterday you finished your finals for spring semester and couldn't wait for summer to start. Before you go back to your college student lifestyle, be sure to check these things off your list before we start school in one month!

1. Read a book

Whether it be an old favorite, one that's soon becoming a movie, or a classic, give your brain a vacation. During the school year sadly you won't have as much time to read for fun.

2. Write a letter

To an old friend, family member, or even a message in a bottle! There's nothing better than pouring your feelings out in a letter and reaching out to someone you haven't talked to in awhile. Plus, everyone loves getting mail!

3. Day Trip

What's that one place you've always wanted to round up your bffs and adventure to? Depending on where you live, there is probably a ton of options you have to expore that you aren't taking advantage of by visiting!

4.Surprise Visit

Make your grandparents, old neighbor, or old coworkers day by surprising them with a visit.

5. Learn a recipe

Impress your friends during the school year with that one recipe you know how to make with your eyes closed. Practice makes perfect!

6. Look at requirements for school majors/deadlines for programs

You don't want to start the semester off stressed because you didn't know upcoming deadlines! Also, be sure to make sure you're on the right track for your classes and major.

7. Save!

Unless you have a job during the school year, you probably won't be making much money. Save now so if you need something during the semester you treat yourself.

8. Clean out your wardrobe

Clean our your closet and get rid of those middle school clothes you never want to look at again and update your style!

9. Set goals

Set goals for your grades, working out, and studying. Make this your best semester yet.

10. Start planning for the upcoming year

Make an easy transition. Put the dates for all your breaks and plans you know ahead of time.

11. Spend quality time with friends/family

Just relax! School will be here before we know. Hang out with those you won't be seeing during the year.
