I listen to them ALL the time ussually 5-10 times a day, i render them to mp3 when i'm at a minute or so, listen to the short bits like 50 times on the way to school, so i can edit everything later, i always listen to my songs to hear what mistakes i made, what can i improve in the future etc.

Yeah, I do that a lot actually. I had to delete my original Last.fm profile because I fucked up my Most Listened Artists chart by listening to my own stuff so much.
It's not like I'm conceded or anything, lol. I do it to get new ideas, and so I know what not to do. For example, all of my older stuff has TERRIBLE clipping throughout - before I even knew the importance of Limiting/EQ-ing. So, my newer stuff sounds a lot cleaner.
Whenever I finish a track, I actually export it and import to iTunes, tag it, slap the artwork on, name it - everything. I do all that just so I can hear everything without any latency and to see if the name matches, etc. I listen to it a bunch of times to make sure it's exactly how I want it; if not, I go back to Fruity Loops or GarageBand or whatever and re-edit. And whenever I get a few tracks together, I listen to them in different order to get the flow right. So... all that makes for a lot of listens.
Sorry for writing a book, haha.
