Usually it's late August/early September for me. I'm going back early because I got into a program to help mentor the first years. Basically they get to start a week earlier to get accustomed to uni and I get to start a week before they do for my in-person training.

Taking as many naps as possible before going back to university.
I'll have to go back soon and I have mixed feelings about it. I am excited, I'm just also doing my best not to let my worries get to me.
This weekend I gotta plan my goals for this year. I'm contemplating studying abroad, getting an internship, or both. I'll also be hanging out with my siblings before I leave. And packing.
Bouldering sounds fun! I'd love to try that at some point. But first, I'm gonna try to rope some of my friends into starting off with indoor climbing.
My hobbies are drawing, reading, and learning a language! Haven't done a lot lately though. My main 'hobby' right now is studying. For school. (☍◡⁰)
I love drawing since it's relaxing. I might doodle whatever comes to mind or accidentally create something pretty lol. I read webcomics as a replacement to bingeing shows. Not always a good thing but it can serve as a good distraction. Then there's learning languages... I was studying German a while back and fell off. But opening yourself to a whole new culture is thrilling, especially once you get past basic level. Definitely hoping to travel abroad to Germany someday.
One more thing. Maybe volunteering? You meet different types of people and they all tend to be friendly and laid-back. I joined a volunteer club last year and it's been pretty fun, even when I had some depressing or anxious days. Plus it can be a nice way to socialize.
I forgot about this thread because of how busy the week has been. It feels like this week has been a month. I had to guide eight new students around campus while keeping up with the new changes in a tight schedule. They were a chaotic bunch, but fortunately pretty responsible. I felt sorry for some others because their mentees were troublemakers or just dramatic.
I'm never doing this again lol. It's a nice experience to have once, but I don't like how I get a random group of people that are possibly good or bad. Yesterday I was recuperating from the madness. Today, I think I'll need to face some issues I put aside for this job. But man, I'm so sleepy.
