11 Ways To Hang Out With Your AIM Partner

Having a hard time working your schedule and your partner's schedule together? Here are a few ideas to make time for each other.

1. Study together

Study half as hard as this kitten is, and you're both sure to ace whatever test is coming your way!

2. Eat a meal together

Everyone's gotta eat! Might as well find a time during your school schedule when you're both free to get breakfast, lunch, or dinner on campus.

International lunch is from 11am-2pm on Fridays in the Dining Hall!

3. Go to church together

If you and your partner are both Christians, it might be a great idea to visit one another's church and talk about the sermon together afterwards!

4. Work out together

If you and your partner both like to exercise, try going on a run or heading to the on-campus gym together! Even if you don't like to talk while you exercise, it will still be a good time to bond over your love of fitness.

5. Go grocery or clothes shopping together

Everyone needs groceries and everyone needs clothes. Maybe you can try a food that your partner usually gets but that you've never had before. Perhaps you can plan a meal together!

6. Go to a school play, lecture, or workshop together

There are lots of plays and lectures that occur throughout the semester that you and your partner may be interested in attending together! Maybe go and get frozen yogurt after!

7. Get coffee together

Ever go to Starbucks to get away from campus? Maybe you both can take this time to get away together!

8. Go on a hike together

Everyone has to hike to the "A" at least once during their time at APU. If you have a free weekend or night, it would be a great bonding experience to make the hike together!

9. Hang out in the International Center together

Always full of snacks and people and comfortable couches! If you're looking to hang out with more international students, this is the place to be.

10. Play a sport together at the Dillon Recreation Complex

Basketball, beach volleyball, soccer/football, American football, Frisbee... the list goes on and on! Whatever sport or activity you and your partner like, you can get a game going at the DRC!

11. Play ping pong in Student Union/Cougar Dome

Ping those pongs in a warm, cozy environment!
