How do you unwind?

Happy new year, all.

I personally have found it difficult to go from the absolutely nutso schedule I had in school to doing very little over break. Which I think bodes well for me becoming a nurse (really - if I grow to like stress I'll be getting it in droves!) So I threw myself into work (CNA at a local hospital). Now I'm getting burned out on work, and the gym's not cutting it for taking up the rest of my time.

I wanna know what my fellow student forumers do, hobbywise, given the following assumptions:

We're all students, so we're all probably poor.

Ideally, it's something that can be continued with the piecemeal free time that school allows - not just on breaks. So swimming to bermuda's out.

I took my Jeep off-road over break to unwind. I stopped to take some scenic pictures of the mountain views along the way. I have also started keeping a blog, which is a good outlet. And, I use Blockbuster online and I've been watching a lot of Scrubs and other shows on DVD.

I'm a broke student and can't spend a lot these days. I just make it a point to find little ways to escape and take a break.

Ha wow another 4 wheeler. I love to go 4 wheeling to blow off steam. Winter wheeling is a blast. Hunting also takes up some time to help just relax. I really enjoy mountain biking but that is hard with the snow around and I hate just going to the gym. Bring on spring again.
