WORK HARD, PLAY HARD; THINGS TO DO DURING THIS WINTER BREAK!!!!
You have approximately 35 days from the last day of finals to the first day of the spring semester. How will you spend your time? Here are a few suggestions:
*Is graduate school your goal? Look up potential programs, their requirements and deadlines. Be proactive and put a list together!
*Update your resume. Don't know where to start? E-mail your SSS advisor and we can help! We are available up until December 23, 2016 and then again after January 2, 2017.
*Relax, refresh, recharge. Take some time to yourself and enjoy the break!
*Spend quality time with family. This may not be on the top of your priorities, but once school starts you wont get the chance even if you want to. Take a little time to connect with the family.
*Volunteer. There is no greater feeling of accomplishment than helping out your fellow man. Spend a couple of hours a week at your local hospital/homeless shelter/soup kitchen etc. You’ll be glad you did.
*Make a super awesome music playlist, and take a drive somewhere new. Great for relaxing.
*Exercise. I know some of you didn’t want to hear this one, but I’m a huge advocate for physical fitness. I even got my fiance to hit the weights with me last night. It was tons of fun, and a great stress reliever.
*Read a book. Another lost hobby in the midst of all these tv shows and video games. Find a good book, curl up by a fire, and read, read, read.
REMINDERS AFTER WINTER BREAK
*schedule a meeting with your SSS advisor in the month of January-first week of February
*receive the schedule of spring workshops & events at your first meeting of the spring semester
*set goals!
