1. What are your favorite ways to relax and unwind?
I like to plan vacations for myself. I'll put together a road trip on mapquest, search for cute B&Bs, review tourist attractions (yay art museums!), the whole nine yards. Too bad I never get to actually go on my trips...

2. What do you do the moment you get home from work/school/errands?
Put down my backpack or bag in the first convenient spot, hang my keys from their hook, maybe grab a coke or snack, and sit down at my computer (not so much because I'm a nerd, but I mainly hang out in my room and that's the only chair). Hooray for university apartments.

3. What are your favorite aromatherapeutic smells?
I love Bath and Body works' discontinued Pink Lemonade. I like ecalyptus pretty well. The smell of Mr Bubbles also works pretty well on me.

4. Do you feel more relaxed with a group of friends or hanging out by yourself?
well, I'm most relaxed when I'm not trying to be social, but sometimes when I spend too many weekend nights alone, I get worried about my shyness taking over. I want the option of socialness when I want it. But still, 95% of the time, being alone is nicer.

5. What is something that you feel is relaxing but most people don't?
Eating by myself is pretty nice. I get to ponder during the day, eat some good food in whatever comfortable location I want, and I think I look pretty progressive when I'm willing to eat alone. Ditto for shopping, and the occasional movie.
