Try doing something you never did before, that would really challenge you and that would upgrade your life.<p>Never been a sport person? -&gt; start practicing one very days Never been a music person? -&gt; learn to play the guitar Never been a social person? -&gt; find a bartender job<p>and that&#x27;s just examples

Maybe 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.<p>Or maybe find a Toastmasters club in your area? <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.toastmasters.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.toastmasters.org&#x2F;</a>

Why do you think internet strangers know what activities you find fun?<p>Try taking classes outside your comfort zone, since you&#x27;re already a student. College is the only time you get to selfishly, voraciously learn about niche fields of knowledge.
