Mercedes Benzene Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 It's a given that we're all busy people. School, work, and family occupy a great majority of our time. But what is it that you like to do whenever you get a free moment? A free hour? A free day? A free week? What do you enjoy doing that makes you feel happy and relaxed? ?? :love::D:rockon::hihi:;)??

Tarantism Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 i enjoy making music. also, i enjoy "letting my hair down" and just going with the flow sometimes. i do not like flying. especially in small aircraft. Quote
Monomer Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 The things that make me feel happy and relaxed... Painting, playing the piano, and watching a funny movie or sitcom. If I'm home alone then I put on some good music and sing along. I also really love to potter around in the garden on a nice day. My cats hang around me and fill in the holes I dig and chase insects, and I always have my camera handy so I can take photos of them being cute. Quote
maikeru Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Playing piano, reading (fiction, history, science), theatre (plays), gardening and growing plants, and the outdoors and hiking, where I can leave just a piece of me in the wild. Wild and scenic places fill me with a sense of splendour. Quote
Tormod Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 I like to exercise by running or biking, or simply taking long walks. I also love to watch movies, either on TV or at a local theater with a friend. And I also like to make music, although I rarely do it in the summer months for some reason. Quote
Buffy Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Good food, and five miles per day to keep it from having deleterious side-effects! Rollercoasters, Disney theme parks. Movies and frivilous TV. Driving in fast cars with boys (as long as *I'm* driving), and watching it too (Go Danica!)... Anything having to do with chocolate or coffee. Adrenaline junkie, :hihi:Buffy Quote
sanctus Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Now it is already 3 weeks I work 7 out of 7 days (this may explain why I'm very often online...) but in the evening if it is not raining I force myself to go outside juggling (so in addition to go shopping I do something else outside) and in the late evenings I watch movies or play computer games. When I have less work I also do some running. Since I have an addiction problem with good books at the moment I don't read, but it is also something I do quite often (mainly science-fiction). Quote
Jay-qu Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Exercise, surfing, lying in the sun (time of year dependant..) reading fiction - all the stuff that i havent been able to do enough of lately! Quote

Pyrotex Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Reading a good SF novel (there are so few new ones any more!) Driving with my Gwen in the country. Wheeling around our neighborhood with my wheelchair in dangerous speed mode. Anything involving caffeine, seafood or adrenaline. Like, oh..., say..., eating grilled shrimp with arabica sauce while riding a roller coaster. Playing Alpha Centauri. Cooking a gourmet meal for friends. Quote
Jay-qu Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 I will add cooking to the list :hihi: and heres a pic of me in my leisure time :) Quote
DougF Posted August 18, 2007 Report Posted August 18, 2007 I hang out in my shop where I am currently putting a engine in my 1990 3/4 ton GMC 2500 PU and trying to restore my 1982 3/4 ton Dodge Prospector PU (this is the one I drive now), although parts are hard to find, when I'm not working on the trucks I work in the yard till dark then I'll build a fire drink some beers and watch the stars, when the weather is not cooperating I watch movies and cruse the Internet and read a lot of the Hypography Forums. I don't go out much as in go to movies or theme parks just hang around the house. :hihi: Quote
