what to do:
things you enjoy, even when no one around you wants to go out and play. what lowers your stress/blood pressure/anxiety level? make a list, post it to your journal...and then tag 5 friends and ask them to post it to theirs.

i'm tagging: Kalay, Mari, Bart, Rain, Bing --> you've been tagged! hehe! sorry...
here's a list of the things i enjoy doing alone which also relaxes me:
1. food
who on earth doesn't wanna eat (except for those anorexic people)? ok fine...i am an addict - to anything delicious looking and yes, junk food! i'm a sucker for food!!! those who really know me knows how much i eat. kaya recently, nagtataka silang lahat kung bakit hindi na ako ganun ka-lakas kumain. maybe my liver got smaller...hehe! wag niyong isiping nag-di-diet ako. alam niyo namang music to my ears ang marinig kong may magsabi ng: "aiko, tumataba ka ah..." pero well, since i'm not that much of a pig recently, it's the opposite comment i hear...arrgghhh! sa mga nagpapapayat niyo sabihin yun! but now that i don't have to rely on my own cooking, i'd like to get back to my usual couch potato ways...
2. tv/movie/anything worth watching
adding up to my couch potato state, it wouldn't be complete if i don't sit in front of the tv and watch anything interesting. dvd fest, desperate houeswives, the apprentice, mtv, joey, f, friends, still standing, yes dear, boston public, miss match, one tree hill, csi, feat factor, amazing race, disney channel, hbo, star movies, other movie channels, local tv, what else did i miss? hehe! if you've read Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom and wanna see it on tv, Hallmark Channel will be piloting the series next friday (june 24) at 9pm.
3. music
the entertainment world wouldn't be the same without sound. for me, music relaxes the mind, body, and soul. usher, alicia keys, boyz II men, musiq, kelly clarkson, hoobastank, nelly, jay-z, snoop dogg, 50 cent, ashanti, black eyed peas, jojo, mario, 3 doors down, vertical horizon, goo goo dolls, lifehouse, destiny's child, ciara, gwen stefani, eraserheads, rivermaya, bamboo, parokya ni edgar, spongecola, m.y.m.p., sandwich, hale, cueshe'...need i say more?
4. reading
killing time reading anything interesting makes me learn new things and stir up my very imaginative mind more. just finished reading Deceptive Point by Dan Brown, Year Abroad Trilogy and Sweet Sixteen (from the Love Stories Series) - thanks to paula for lending me books to read during this excruciating time of ours. Next on my reading list: Digital Fortress, Harry Potter 5 (oo na, huli na ko sa balita. i wana buy the set kasi eh well, hanggang ngayon, hindi ko pa rin siya nabibili), and The 5 People You Meet in Heaven. I'm open to suggestions on must-reads kaya comment away...
5. computer
killing time in front of the computer relaxes me. i didn't take up computer applications for nothing...hehe! email, blogging, friendster, games, pictures, etc...
6. daydream
when there's nothing else to do...the most relaxing moment during the day when awake...syempre, you're just gonna imagine good things diba? it would be nice if those things would come true...
7. sleep
the most relaxing moment during the day when asleep...hahaha! duh! getting those afternoon naps (o kahit hindi afternoon!) won't compare to anything. sa panahong ito ko lang nakakalimutan ng lubusan ang mga problema ko sa buhay. bonus nalang ang managinip ka ng maganda!
8. sing and dance
i believe that everyone gets carried away (especially when alone) when you hear a good song playing on the radio or see the music video you've been waiting for. i read in an email (things you you should do to be happy or things to do before you die or something like that), sing like no one's listening, dance like no one's watching...mas masaya nga pag ikaw lang nakakarinig at nakakakita sa sarili mo...hahaha!
9. getting good recipes from cook books
i know this should be under #4, but not really...i like finding out easy-to-do recipes coz i'm somewhat of a frustrated chef/cook/whatever you wanna call it. i get amazed by people who doesn't need measuring cups to cook/bake good food. i wanna have that flair for cooking/baking. ako mismo mahilig kumain kaya i wanna give the pleasure of fixing up good food to someone else.
10. cleaning my room
if you just know how messy my room is...it is therapeutic to see my room neat and clean! i have these once-in-a-blue-moon moments na sinisipag akong maglinis ng kwarto. kaya pag naumpisahan ko na, at the end of the day, i wanna enjoy the neat and clean room na pinaghirapan ko. and by then, i wanna invite friends over dahil hindi na nakakahiyang ipakita ang kwarto ko...hahaha!
