A life hack that has saved you time and again.

I wouldn't call that boring - I'd love to see that!

(can't think of a life hack, anyone else?)

Hmmm too many to think of, can't think of a "best"!
offhand, here are some:
Biography: Beloved By All (R' Pam)
Holocaust: To Vanquish the Dragon, Tell the World
other non-fiction: Let My Nation series
Historical Fiction: Who is like your People
Fiction: Brain Waves

A song you've been waiting to listen to (that you haven't during sefira)

Niggun of the Ribnitzer Rebbe zt"l. It's not really a full song but what they call a Tniya, I don't know the translation of Tniya in English. It doesn't contain words. I usually hear it often because it really uplifts me and gets me soaring into a ruchnius mood, and evokes a deep yearning to want to be one with Hashem Yisborach.

A (ruchnius) goal you are aiming for to be finished by Shavous?

To express gratitude to Hashem for specific things in my life, every single day.

Something that makes you laugh.

A funny memory from your childhood

When I was a child we lived in NY. Once we came to Israel for a wedding in my (Sabra) mother's family. My uncle came to meet us at the airport and bought us ice cream. But we didn't know what it was. I'm not sure why, but we didn't recognize it - it didn't seem like ice cream to us. I was about 5 years old and kept asking "what is it? what is it?" And my uncle was perplexed (and probably disappointed that we didn't seem to like his treat), going "what? American children don't know what ice cream is?"

On your "to do" list for today.

I don't really know how unique this is, but we have a special seudah on Tu B'shvat, at which we eat from all the Shivat HaMinim, and say a tefillah for the coming year's Esrog.

Something that helps you relax.
