Follow your passions and everything else will fall into place! But if you intend to do further education, it’s worthwhile to write an undergraduate thesis. It’s not only useful preparation, it will also allow you to get to know professors who can become excellent references.
And, of course, enjoy yourself and invest in your friendships!

Set out your goals and surround yourself with like-minded people who will help support you on your journey to achieving those goals (and vice versa).
Get involved in extra-curricular activities as they really enrich your academic experience.
Don’t compromise your health and well-being for academics.
Networking is really important! Make friends among your peers and the faculty/staff of your program/college.
Take pictures of your experiences. Undergrad goes by so quickly, and you want those memories captured for a lifetime!

“The university is a diverse place with diverse people. Take advantage of that by learning from those around you and engaging in the immense variety of opportunities. Whatever you do, do not just stay in your room and study; the world requires you to do much more than describe the Theory of Relativity or the stylistic prose of Mark Twain.”

“Every day, try to talk to someone who is very different from you. Ask open questions and listen to understand, not just to hear. You will learn much more from people’s stories than any textbook. (But also read your textbook… before class).”
