Wasting My Summer?

<p>Two weeks into summer, and I feel as if I'm wasting my time. Can't work until next summer, didn't get any internships, not doing and major programs, I'm just chilling. I feel as I'm falling behind all the other people doing something worth while with their summer. My summer's pretty much been 6+hrs of tennis a day, and chilling with friends all day the rest of the time. I mean it's fun as hell, but I feel like I haven't done anything productive except for the ACT and SAT classes I'm taking. </p>

<p>Anyone else feel the same?</p>

<p>If you’re enjoying yourself, you’re not wasting your time.</p>

<p>Nobody gets out of it alive. :D</p>

<p>Lol I haven’t done jack so far. Still got time, but that’s probably not a good mindset. Better get crackin’ on reviewing!</p>

<p>Im pretty sure 6+ hours of tennis would do you good if you’re into it</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>True, but for some people they’re enjoying themselves only if they’re not wasting time. I’m one of them, I’m going to have a hectic August with different camps and an internship that starts in August but July is mostly free- that means college apps, a bit of light volunteering, SAT/summer reading, etc… nothing major. But I feel absolutely horrible… there are people going on vacation, going to prestigious programs and junior olympic camps… and I’m messing around either at home or occasionally hanging out.</p>

<p>Chill out and enjoy it before you get to adulthood.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>maybe you’re not really enjoying yourself then?</p>

<p>I feel ya, man. I have no job, no internships, a little volunteering here and there and I’ve otherwise just been chilling with reading and some hobbies.</p>

<p>The only thing I’m really worried about is that I won’t be able to get a job next summer because of no prior work experience. Teen jobs are at an all-time low right about now.</p>

<p>I even applied to an open, overnight shift at three McDonald’s and not a single one called me back. Bummer.</p>

<p>^^Lol, I’m guaranteed a coaching job at our tennis club this fall once I turn 16, so I’m happy. :).</p>
