I like to plan a bit before I get my scope out - I check through my "atlas of the southern night sky" which lists/maps interesting and attainable objects in each constellation and I also look for objects discussed in the latest AS&T or Sky & Space. I love finding constellations that are new to me and star hopping to find DSOs. After I find a few new things (which could take quite some time, but who cares), I go back to some old favourites and just gaze.
