Ask HN: I'm having a boring summer. What should I do?
I'm a college student and because of health reasons last semester, I wasn't able to get an internship.
I'm taking two online classes (calc 3 and physics 1) and I find them in credibly boring.
What fun/ intectually stimulating things should I do?
Please help.
- ecares 7y agoTry doing something you never did before, that would really challenge you and that would upgrade your life. Never been a sport person? -> start practicing one very days Never been a music person? -> learn to play the guitar Never been a social person? -> find a bartender job and that's just examples

- smt88 7y agoWhy do you think internet strangers know what activities you find fun? Try taking classes outside your comfort zone, since you're already a student. College is the only time you get to selfishly, voraciously learn about niche fields of knowledge.
- cpach 7y agoMaybe meet some new people? I don’t know about your locale, but in larger cities there are usually lots of interesting groups on meetup.com. Could be painting, photography, learning a new programming language or just socialising. Or maybe find a Toastmasters club in your area? https://www.toastmasters.org/ https://www.toastmasters.org/
