What to do in vacation

I'm a FY CE student at SPIT Mumbai, nearing my ESEs. For the most part, I have only done DSA and CP in my first year, that too not that seriously (~800 rating on CF). I got a decent SGPA in the first semester (9) and hoping a similar SGPA will pan out this semester.

I have seen a lot of people talk about web development, AI/ML etc. but I have no idea about these fields and nor do I have any idea on how to start them. But one thing is for sure: I have nothing significant to put on my resume.

Our college sure sends out a lot of emails and even whatsapp messages about internship opportunities but I don't know if I should pursue it. (Most of them straight up seem like a scam!).

So long story short, I need guidance from the seniors. What the hell should I do on vacation.

Start web development? Complete DSA? Do that CS50 course? I will surely continue CP, try to get 1200 rank in CF but I want to do more. Please help me (and a lot of other guidance - less FY students).

Also a lot of colleges provide internships from the second year itself, especially for girls. But I doubt our college has a similar situation.
