<p>My S was also a lot less social in HS than he is in college. It does make for boring breaks. He’s always anxious to get back to school. I was the same way a million years ago.</p>
<p>Lots of great suggestions above re: volunteering, chores, etc. Other random thoughts:</p>
<p>Get a short term gym membership. </p>
<p>Catch up on any books you won’t haven’t had a chance to read.</p>
<p>Plan ahead early for the next school year, research study abroad programs if you’ll be taking one - it’s fun to browse</p>
<p>If your mom hasn’t already done so, you could go through childhood stuff, books, etc and organize stuff to keep and give away (yes, I wish my kids would do this - what do we do with all those Power Ranger toys and Star Wars and Pokemon cards?). </p>
<p>Spend 3 hours tonight watching the end of LOST…!</p>
