#Exams are #over by Mishika Mittal

#Exams are #over


Towards the end of semester when  the university students are over with their exams, they  are  experiencing an exhilarating feeling with anxiety during the two months vacations. Some choose to plan adventurous road trips and excursions and some resort to tipsy and insane hangouts  with their  bunch of crazies, but there’s always a full-stop to all these doings. Sick of blathering on without any meaning and purpose, a point that marks the limit of something, when one reaches  his/her saturation edge, having loafed all around the city you shut off sitting at home ultimately. Students are clueless about how to make the break a judicious one. Often students confess that these activities of fun and frolic get mundane and start searching for alternatives. What you can achieve in two months, is entirely upto how much you are driven. Do some soul searching, do something you have been putting off for a long time. So, here’s a bucket list, a sum of ideas so as for those students who are enwrapped in boredom and dizziness. Have a glimpse and see how best you can utilize your time productively.

These days students are a lot more aware about the summer internships. A degree is great but if you have no relative work experience, then it can be quite an arduous task to secure a respectable job of your choice. Most internships can offer you a valuable insight and practical knowledge with a profitable experience. And if you play with your cards right could translate into a full time position post-graduation resulting to a good security for future. Therefore, get clinched to internships and grab them as soon as possible.

If you find yourself in a disbeneficial state regarding an internship, don’t be disheartened. Here’s the next best thing you can do : Build stuff. Find a project and start working on it. If you run into problems you don’t know how to solve, ask them on Quora or look for a mentor. Put what you’re learning to use and you’ll be that much better off when the next year rolls around.

You can also take this time to kick back and see the world. If you don’t want to travel, then it is advisable to  read - literature, economics, engineering, science fiction, anything you enjoy or anything that grips your  mindset. There’s more to world and you can be a skilled enthusiast if you have a better view of the whole world.



Also, you can opt for learning a second language. Go out and hit any first rated foreign language institute nearby, which offers  learning different languages such as german, French, Spanish, Russian and so on. Try something that you have always wanted to do within the time limit. Moreover, the erudition that  is boosted up by learning something gets adding to your resume and expertism.

Look out for some social work, try working and support an NGO. NGOs help you to become a responsible member by making you do something constructive. Reach out for live projects. Visit the rural areas nearby. Plant an education tree for the unprivileged and ignorant, who are not fully cognizant of their rights and education.

If none of the above options excite you, you can follow your hobbies, the short-term courses ranging from  aerobics, swimming, baking to different forms of dance or any other sporting activity.

Its not necessary to bear the scorching heat by getting out of your comfort zone. Because internet is at your disposal, do some productive surfing like joining online courses, subscribe to blogs etc which enlightens you and broadens your knowledge. Basically, here the idea was to give you a just of creativeness, including the activities which are filled with fun and frolic, so as you can frame and arm yourself to standout from your peers.
