University students can get busy during their semester, bound by coursework, quizzes, group discussions and exams. Some students work really, really hard so when the semester is over, all they want to do is just chill and get into a lazy mode.
**Yawn. Stretches the body**
While you might find it easy to let that holiday mode sink in and sit around the house doing nothing, it will eventually get boring after a few days. But don’t worry, we’ve got it all planned out for you:
#1 Do a KL food tour by hopping on the Sungai Buloh-Kajang MRT
Everyone went goo-goo ga-ga with the recent opening of the 51km MRT line connecting 31 stations from Sungai Buloh to Kajang.
Take advantage of this convenience and head over to Kota Dame (formerly known as Uptown Kota Damansara), a thriving food enclave and night market, which is located just a stone’s throw away from MRT Kota Damansara station and also SEGi University!

You can also hop on the new MRT to Muzium Negara for some deep fried goodies at Brickfields Pisang Goreng (right outside One Sentral Restaurant), Chinese-style Nasi Lemak Peele Road (at Cochrane station); and of course, the biggest pasar malam near Taman Connaught station!

#2 Binge-watch Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones (GoT) is currently the most talked about US show on TV, and we Malaysians are in on the hype—we’re crazy about it!
As the seventh season just kicked into gear, challenge yourself to undertake a binge-watching session of the entire six seasons!
Hello, binge-watch ah not binge eat!
#3 Volunteer as a student helper
How would you like to earn extra pocket money and gain working experience while studying? We have the perfect solution for you.
Volunteer as a student helper at SEGi University. The university needs you in many aspects. For registration, drop by at Student Affairs Division at SEGi University, Level 2, Ring Wing.
SEGi pays you for the hours you work!
That’s one of their tasks for student helpers—dance to keep the new students entertained. Okay, we’re just kidding!
#4 Immerse yourself in games
Escape into the virtual world before the semester resumes. Have a go at a round (or more) of shootin' in Counterstrike: Global Offensive. If guns are not your thing, try hurling fireballs in classic MOBAs such as League of Legends or Dota 2.
Or you can channel your inner Ash and launch your career as a Pokémon master by catching and training those elusive Pokémon with your mobile device.
