Looking at a full moon at midnight is really fantastic when it comes to relaxing for me. Sometimes I just lay down on my couch and play old video games, just to help me relax. I even got so pissed once that I just took a walk around my block, like five times.

I also like to write reviews (Probably the reason why I became a reviewer), and read positive comments on my maps sometimes. Maybe a good look at some N-Arts, or some of my old favorite maps.

I even like to just view some great Linerider videos or Stickfigure animations, such as Shock and Xiao Xiao, etc. I could also take a good look at some nice music videos, or just listen to music. Maybe even make a calming song with Mixcraft. I also relax by drawing, just taking out a pencil, some colors, and an eraser. Playing basketball alone is also very relaxing for me, whether or not it's inside or outside, or whether or not I'm using a hoop or a clothes bin with some socks.

Some good sleeping couldn't hurt me. Hell, I sleep less than I'm awake, but when I do, I sleep long. I also like to eat a little, ya know, pig out even sometimes.

Sometimes helping out others is very relaxing. Drinking some lemonade and eating cereal while watching Tom & Jerry on a Saturday Morning is very relaxing. The physical humor makes me feel good, and I like the old fashion 60's music with the old style drawings.

Even typing out this post was very relaxing. But after reading this, I feel a bit too laid back of a person, and still, that's relaxing. =D

So now, what about you. What do you do to relax? Just sit back in a corner and rest? Watch your favorite cartoons while laying in bed? Just plain sleeping?

Go ahead, and post your favorite ways to relax, and if you don't, well, you could just discuss relaxing as well.

I'll close everything active - IRC, Internet Browser, Games etc. - leaving MSN open, and I'll chat with my friends whilst listening to music. Mostly calm music like Daft Punk, Radiohead and similar artists (never heavy music though).

If it's the middle of the day on a weekend, I go for walks in the park and take things from children.
Otherwise, I close all chat programs on the computer and lie on my bed watching standup comedy or assorted TV shows.

I sleep / read / listen to music / make music.

Once in a blue moon, I'll go for a walk in the sunset. It's almost an epiphany every time.

i -love- the night.

my fav thing to do relax is go around at like midnight with my mates and just do simple things like.. kick a soccer ball around a playground with bands like architecture in helsinki blaring from a speaker, or climbing up trees. and things.

I don't know, i freaking love the night.

I listen to Dream Music, like This Mortal Coil, or other types of calm music (Donovan, Kings of Convenience or any kind of Jazz). I try to focus on the good stuff that happened to me in the day (as I usually relax more at night, looking at the moon.

The problem about relaxing to me is the fact that It's hard to focus on the good stuff... and then I begin thinking about me... and that's not a good thing some days.


Another way of relaxin': bed+a good music+ reading some cartoons.

ANOTHER way of relaxin': Just...sleep a lot.
