What can I do this summer going into sophomore year to prep/benefit-my-career?

I have a part time internship at an IB this summer and I have a lot of extra time on my hands (They wouldn't give me FT as a freshman). I've been feeling restless since my semester ended as this is the first time in like 9 months when I've had some serious free time. I know this is likely the last serious amount of free time as a kid I will ever have in my life and I'm making the most of it, hanging out with my HS friends I haven't seen in a year and stuff. But I still really want something career/academic-related to do. This isn't me being a hardo as much as me being really fucking bored because I have nothing to do. I'm so desperate for entertainment I've been rewatching Game of Thrones. Feel free to suggest anything career-related, or anything else for personal improvement or cool-to-do that you would recommend. If you have any book suggestions would be cool. I go to a target (not saying this to brag, but rather if you guys have any things-to-do related to that as in networking or something).
