5 Things To Do Before Summer Ends

5 things I plan to do in two weeks

There's only two weeks left before school starts. Where did the summer go? Well, I certainly spent this summer working a lot and doing some travel. Now with two weeks to go, I am trying to have an actual summer. This past week I went home and saw family and got a chance to relax. With two weeks to go, there are five things that I want to try and get done before school starts.

1. I want to finish the HBO show Game of Thrones.

This show right now has been all I watch on TV. Saturday was just spent watching one entire season. Currently, I am on season four, episode eight but I plan to be fully caught up on season seven by the end of this upcoming week.

2. I want to go into the city and explore.

When I say "the city", I am referring to San Francisco. I lived in the Bay Area for about seven weeks this summer but didn't really have an opportunity to actually explore. I want to go back and spend a weekend walking around town and exploring. I want to see what San Francisco has to offer. I also want to get a sense for the night life in the city.

3. I want to just catch up with friends.

Now that people are starting to come back to Stockton for training or to help out for orientation, I want to catch up. It's been months since I have seen some of my friends. One of the ways that I was thinking about catching up with them was by hosting a BBQ. This way they can relax and talk and end summer on a good note.

4. I need to clean my room.

This one is a must do. I have the habit of just leaving my clean clothes in the closet and not hanging them or putting them back where they belong. Currently, my closet is a mess. I need to get ready for the school year by starting off on the right foot; that is, by getting organized.

5. I want to party.

This last thing that I want to do before summer is over is to go out and party. I haven't been out to a party for a few months. I think the last time was in April, but with the start of school, I want to party at least once before I devote 90% of my time to work and school work. That has been a rule of mine since I started college. I only allow myself to have a bit more fun than normal before and after the school semester. I try to go out and keep the partying to a minimum during the school year.

I can't wait for the start of my senior year. It feels like just yesterday when I was about to start my freshman year of college. Time certainly does fly by. But I do intend to spend the next weeks living life to its fullest and enjoying every minute of what's left of summer.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
