Do a summer job that you enjoy, take a break from the grind of classes and go work somewhere fun, you don't need an internship to get a job after college. Have some fun, go be a white water rafting instructor something crazy like that while you still have the freedom to.

Camp Counselor

What I liked

I served as a Camp Counselor and Camp Nurse at Camp Highroad this past Summer. I loved the challenges of indulging in 24/7 unpredictable work, and I adored working with different aged kids every week, along with caring for them as a camp nurse.

What I wish was different

I believe that God provided this job for me this summer for me to grow in specific areas of my life and I don’t wish for any part of it to have been different because I believe it was a work of Him and not me.

Advice

Time and stress management within life is so important! Make sure you are not just pouring yourself out to everyone else constantly but also consistently being filled up by the Holy Spirit who will sustain and guide you. Also, know that when you feel like you can’t do something, don’t rely on yourself to do it, but rely on Him who is good and will carry us through.
