How to set work boundaries without looking bad?

My acting senior on my project gives me way too much work to do and then gets pushy when I don’t finish everything she wants me to.

Applying to other internships

Recently had an internship with one of the big4 and have a full time offer next fall. Was thinking of applying to other firms (mid-tier and other big4) for summer 22 internship, just to network and see what is out there. Has anyone done this? Is this a good idea or should I just be grateful I have a offer for next year?
