1. Clean your room.
Don’t hate just yet. If you’re anything like me the end of your semester was incredibly hectic and you probably didn’t have time to clean your room...or your car...or anything at all. But getting rid of all the clutter will make you feel great and productive afterward. Plus you will have a nice clean space to binge the Netflix you’ve been missing.
2. Sleep in for once. Enough said.
3. Read a book, for fun. Not one you were assigned to read for class.
4. Get in the Christmas spirit.
I recommend finding a place where they put up lots of lights and just walk around enjoying the sights, perhaps in the company of good friends5. Indulge in your hobbies.
Some of your favorite things to do may have been put on the back burner for the sake of studying and finishing those end of semester projects, but now you can use some of that extra time simply to do the things you love!6. Go on a road trip.
Whether it’s back home or someplace new with friends- turn up the music and just drive.
7. Shake the dust.
If this semester was tough and maybe you didn’t do so hot--or even failed a class or two--or had any number of things impede your learning or social life, do not let it keep you down. It’s over now, pick yourself up and shake the dust off yourself, take some time to reevaluate and rejuvenate and when the spring semester starts again do not let the missteps from the past boggle you. You got this!
