I don\u2019t know about you, but every year at the start of summer I come up with a list of things I want to do with my time and, whether it\u2019s because of work, family events, or just general laziness, by the end of the summer I often don\u2019t get through most of them. Since I\u2019m staying in NYC this summer, I\u2019ve decided to change all of that. And here are a few tips to help you do the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/summer.gif\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4919\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4919 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/summer.gif\" alt=\"summer\" width=\"250\" height=\"119\"><\/a><\/h5>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">1. Balance work and fun.<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> With my internship keeping me pretty busy during the week, it\u2019s up to the weekends and nights for me to really get out and explore the city. While landing a job or an internship is a great move for your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tun.com\/blog\/the-10-commandments-of-resume-writing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">resume<\/a>, make sure you don\u2019t spend all your time inside an office.

Say yes to everything.<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Remember all those times during the semester you said \u2018no\u2019 because you had other things you had to do? Summer is the perfect time for you to say \u2018yes\u2019 to all of the fun things you missed out on when you were <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tun.com\/blog\/the-lazy-students-guide-to-studying\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u2018studying\u2019<\/a> (i.e. scrolling Facebook in your pajamas in bed).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">3. Stop procrastinating!<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> If you give yourself ten minutes to do something, actually do it. It\u2019s insane how much time we waste through procrastination. This needs to stop now\u2026. (or tomorrow, when I\u2019m done binge-watching House of Cards).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">4.

This summer, take out from your closet all of the cute clothes you bought for that one party you never went to and actually wear them! Put on the clothes that make you feel confident and amazing and you will begin to accomplish amazing things.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">5. Live in the moment.<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> STOP! Relax, breathe, and look around you. Notice all of the little things you\u2019ve missed when you were rushing to catch the last train or get to the office in time.
