It's that time again! The glorious long days of summer are coming to an end and school is right around the corner. Every year around this time I find myself regretting my decisions to stay inside and watch Netflix most days. This year I have put my foot down! I have decided that I am going to adventure out this summer and experience some good summer fun! Here are some ideas that you can take advantage of while there is still time.

1. Go Backpacking

Nothing says adventure like backpacking the great outdoors. This is a great way to experience nature, but also a great way to get pulled outside of your comfort zone. There is no option for "fancy" camping and no chance of getting Netflix to occupy you!


2. Try Out Cliff Diving

This is one that is not for the faint of hearts. If you have never done this, there is no doubt that this will be an experience. This is adventure for those of you that love water and love getting that adrenaline rush.


3. Take A Road Trip

It's not everyday that you get a chance to get together with your friends and drive cross country. Once school starts back there will be no time for such spontaneity. Go out, take a risk, and end up where ever the road takes you!


4. Go Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Although not as intense as some of the other activities listed, stand up paddle boarding requires a modest amount of skill. Once getting balanced while standing, it is a fun laid back activity that allows you to chill out and appreciate the things around you.


5. Take A Canopy Zip Line Tour

Not only do you get to zip around high in the air, but you also get to see some amazing views. Zip lining is something that allows the participant to get that adrenaline rush, but also hang out and enjot the ride!

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
