This is what happens during the long break before university: you get bored, try to think of what to do, take a long nap, repeat.
If you’re stuck on ideas, we’ve got you covered! Read on and try out our suggestions before university start.
#1 Slide into your crush’s DMs and ask them out 😉
You can’t be any more #YOLO than this! If you’ve liked someone for a long time, take a chance on your feelings and drop a DM. Who knows, you could be getting coffee together soon!
#2 Go on a solo trip—yes, on your own!
This is the best time for you to learn about yourself better and there’s no better way of doing it than by going on a trip on your own! Whether it’s local or abroad, you’ll get to meet new people and discover new places. The independence you’ll get will prep you for what’s to come at uni.
#3 Learn how to bust K-pop moves… just because
Dancing not only lets you enjoy the music and gives you a chance to exercise—you’ll also get to show off a side of your personality that no one has seen before, not even yourself!
#4 Dye your hair in rainbow colours
Time to try out new styles before you embark on your new life at university! Why not start with an explosion of colours that’ll leave you satisfied you were daring enough to try it?
#5 Escape from social media and go on a digital detox
You’re always checking on your phone for messages and social media updates. What if you don’t for one day? Let your friends and family know beforehand what you’re about to do. Then, put down your phone.
P.S Finish reading this article first though!
#6 Go parasailing for that adrenaline rush
So you’re on a beach vacay but you’re also like, ‘Maybe it’s time I should try something new!’. If heights don’t freak you out, then try out parasailing for that much-needed adrenaline rush and beautiful views of the sea.
#7 Get a ticket to your favourite singer’s concert… and go alone!
Is there a singer or band that you love, but no one else seems to? You’ve got better taste, obviously! If they’re performing soon, book that ticket for yourself and jam to their songs at the concert!
However, remember that as much as you want to #YOLO forever, education is something you can’t compromise. Whether you’re about to continue your Pre-U or undergraduate studies, take some time between YOLO-ing to look at university options—it’ll determine the next few years of your life!
Here’s how to start: Make your way to Heriot-Watt University Malaysia’s Summer Break Open Day on 20 and 21 July 2019.
