summer

by:    

This will likely sound dumb, but here goes. When I rush, will I be asked what I did over the summer? I didn't get to travel or work so will I sound bad if I say I spent it at home with family and friends? I can make it sound exciting and I've done some fun things, but I don't want to seem boring just because I didn't have the opportunity to travel/take lavish vacations like a lot of my peers did. Is any emphasis placed on this/have any cuts been made because one PNM sounded more interesting and exciting than another?

I just want to be able to distiguish myself against the other freshmen :/ I'm here for summer B that's why I couldn't work by the way.

I'm also up here for summer B so just lead with that! I literally did nothing at home summer A but I can talk about the classes, activities, and volunteering that I do here in Gainesville.

Don't think to much about it, people don't really care if you did nothing, rushing is not as hard as you think

People don't ask what you did over the summer to judge you as a person, they use it as a conversation topic. So just make sure you mention something to keep the convo going.

volunteer! you still have time to start something. If you want to be really cool, do it every day for maximum potential stories/discussions. Or talk about hobbies you did: usually people forget to count stuff that isn't "resume-worthy" but it's definitely good to talk about with friends. Ex: playing guitar/singing/other instrument, working out, running (maybe run some races to talk about), learned or practiced a skill, etc

Or "I came up for Summer B! My classes went great, etc" is probably something they hear a lot
