What’s your summer vibe?

Final exams are almost behind us. Our deadlines are wrapping up and those double-digit temperatures are arriving at the perfect time.

But summer isn’t just about the warm weather — although that’s my favourite part.

For students and recent graduates, summer can mean a lot of different things. Some are starting new jobs or internships, others are taking time to recharge, planning the trip of a lifetime or simply just figuring things out as they go.

If there’s one thing that’s consistent, it’s inconsistency. 

We’ve put together a quick quiz to help you find out what your summer will look like. Pick your essentials, including go-to items, activities and priorities, and the final result will reveal how you’ll be spending the next few warm months.

Here are the possible results.

The hustler mindset

If you’re booked and busy, the hustler summer is your personality. You’re working, starting a new internship or even leading a side hustle.

You’re making the moves that future you will thank you for.

Don’t text, recharging

Still thinking about that long essay you had to write or that one assignment that almost made you lose it? Well, summer might be the perfect time to recharge your energies.

After many deadlines, you deserve a break. Your summer will be all about slowing down, catching up on rest and doing things at your own pace.

Feeling like the main character

This is your moment to shine. You’re going for a spontaneous, paint-the-night-red kind of summer. You’re chasing fun, living in the moment and creating stories you’ll be talking about to your grandchildren in the future.

The main character summer is all about making memories and feeling like every night is a movie.

Glow-up season

If you’re at the gym, building new habits or learning a new hobby, your main goal is to become the best version of yourself. It’s the perfect time to “glow up”.

If you’re thinking about investing in yourself, this is your summer vibe.
