summer plans

[september_road]

I'll be finished with my freshman year in college in a week or two. However, this summer I was planning on getting an internship, but was rejected from every single letter of response so far. I have to take a summer class because I dropped a class this past semester since I was almost failing it, and I'll be also looking for a part time job. But I'll be in town most of the summer and was wondering what are some neat things to do. I definitely plan on playing basketball, golf, tennis with my friends. I also plan on going to dance clubs, ball games, and what not if I can get people to join me. Anything else to spend the summer doing?

A few friends of mine are planning on taking a 10 day east coast road trip over the summer as well. Do you have any suggestions of some cool things to do on a road trip with just guy friends?(since I've never been on one without my family before)

Also, when I see my high school friends over the summer what is the best way to make a good impression on them and be more outgoing around them, instead of how I was pre-college. I want to show all of them how I've changed, but I'm afraid when I interact with them I'll fall back to my old patterns and be very unsociable.

Anything else....Everything you say....you come back with a negative thought....quit second guessing yourself....

It sounds like you are simply looking for affirmations from people, something to stroke your ego and make you feel secure and accepted. I would suggest going to a boot camp over summer, if there is such a thing for free, or joining boy scounts or some organization where you can be trained. You have a long way of working on yourself, no need to wait for summer for that, start now. You can have a fresh perspective in a month, perhaps.
