1. A job

Of course this is the most obvious one. This would be the most consistent way for you to make some extra cash over break.

2. Sell your clothes

I'm sure if we all cleaned out our closets we'd find some items in there that we've never worn or haven't worn in forever. Why not make a little money off of it.

3. Tutor

Yes, school may be out but there are those kids and families that want to get ready for the next school year.

4. Babysit/nanny

There's always endless opportunities to watch some kids whether they're in your family or some neighborhood kids. This is probably one of the most easiest ways to make some cash.

5. Doing some odd-ball jobs/chores

I'm sure your mom or dad or someone you know has something that they've been meaning to get around to doing. Here's your perfect opportunity.

6. Walk dogs

There are multiple apps out there like Wag! where you can make a little extra money by simply spending time with some cute pups.

7. Pet-sitting/House-sitting

Along the lines of walking dogs, summer is of course the most popular time for people to be going on vacation, meaning they'll need someone to be around to keep things up in their house.

8. Use what you're interested in

Like taking photos? Good at writing? There are multiple ways you can use your hobbies or interests to make some money. Start taking peoples senior photos. Start editing people's papers or work they have to do.

9. Rent out items

Find yourself not really using that bike, camera, or even your car as often as you thought? Someone out there probably will be in need of it.

10. Drive for Uber/Lyft or Uber Eats/Postmates

People are going to need rides and you can help. Ride-share companies are a great way to make money on your own time.

Get creative! Make bracelets! Sell prints of photos you took! Summertime is the perfect time for you to be making some money while enjoying your break.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
