Blowing off steam

So, as deadlines draw near, classes really get going, and nerves begin thinking about new ways to fray, I thought this was something good to get started now, before every one goes bat-$h!t-crazy here again.

What does everyone do when things get too crazy and they need to vent? I used to play diablo2, but the laptop of w00t 1337 battery-ness doesn't have that kinda power (yeah, sad, I know).

Instead, I try (yeah, try) to play golf when it's available, and ice skate when it's not. Golf works for me because no matter how bad I am (and oh my, am I ever bad....) I can swing and swing until my shoulder screams, and just whack the ever loving hell out of that ball. And even if I don't hit the ball, I get a satisfying chunk of dirt.

Skating... I wish I were good enough (and could get dr. clearance) to play hockey, but I'm not, so I just go as fast as I can, as hard as I can, trying new stuff I can't do until I'm totally exhausted. Better than running, and my knees enjoy it more.

oooh- and at night, when it's not too cold, and I'm not working, I like to just go for long wandering walks.

Anyone else?

I like to go to the shooting range and fire off sound rounds. Or pamper myself somehow, but after shelling out a big chunk of change for VMCAS I don't think I can afford any pampering.
Looks like its back to the shooting range, or a suicidal bike-ride down one of the many mountains around my parts.

Also, diablo2 sounds like a great idea. I like to get on the x-box live and turn the microphone on and play some Social Slayer on Halo2 and beat the s*it out of all the guys who make fun that a girl is playing and then give them a hard time while I melee them in the face. Now I'm excited.

I... umm... take a bath. Or take a nap. Or both.

I suppose cooking is something I do to take my mind of things... but only if it's dessert. I'm never that excited to make dinner, but if someone needs a cake, pie, or cookies, I'm stoked. I try not to just make things for myself all the time... I'd like my jeans to fit for a while.

play brickbreaker on my phone (anyone else??? it's addicting and when i start i can't stop!), clean (weird, i know), or ummm get on SDN to waste time and forget about everything else 😀

Definitely hockey.

The day someone tells me I can't play hockey is the day that person goes on my IRL ignore list.

Mountain bike racing! Or, a good 60 mile road bike ride. Anything to break a satisfying sweat will do.

Hott! 😉 I like the pink.

Hott! 😉 I like the pink.

None of the pics are close enough to get a good glimpse of the orange biohazard stickers on my helmet.

Go out for a ride on my bike, of the 500cc variety.

Nyanko, you are truly a girl after my own heart, even if your choice in teams leaves a bit to be desired. 😎 Flyhi, you know what I think about you already. 😛 I like to skate and ride my bike too, but being a vet student now, I do not have the time to fart, much less take joy rides. I study to relieve stress, or so I tell myself.

People you will have to forgive flyhi, she likes to tease and make promises she knows she will not have to carry out. I apologize for her lack of culture. 😉
