Hello, fifteen, female. I couldn't find a better category to put this in but it works well here, too. I am having my Sweet Sixteen in August and I have no idea what I want to do. I don't know what to wear (hence the category). I want it to be something that people will remember when school starts but I don't want it to be to costly. My best friend's sister had a casino night, she rented out a place and had like roulette and all those games out on tables, that was 4 years ago and I still remember it. I was thinking we could hang back at my house and when it gets to be night time we could have a bonfire and play like manhunt or capture the flag but I have no idea what we would do hours before night. It's my first party that my parents are allowing boys and girls to come. It's not going to be a giant party though. So, I need it to be something I'll never forget as well as my guests. Any help is appreciated. Activities to do, what to wear, music to play?

I've found that having a bonfire is always fun. I don't know what your personal preference is, but I'm more of a relaxed type person, who doesn't need to be doing something every second of every day. Bonfires are always nice, just to catch up with everyone, roast marshmallows, and have fun talking, laughing, singing, etc. You could also channel your inner child and catch fireflies or have a marshmallow fight :P.
Something else you could do would be to put up a white sheet somewhere, get a projector and a computer and play a movie that people could watch in the dark. That's always fun.
Or you could play sports with glow in the dark stuff. Like glow in the dark volleyball, or frisbee, and have everyone wear glow bracelets or necklaces so you can see where they are.

I'm not takling the little dinky kind, I mean fully fleged cases that can really creep some people out! Sadly, these kinda parties cost a lot, so for a smaller budget...how about a rave? Glowsticks, techno/screamo/bouncy/crazy music, and brightly-coloured clothing. Plus decoration isn't that much of a thing; just turn out the lights! Or a huge scavenger hunt. It may sound juvenile, but if you do some really crazy things (my clues at my best friend's fifteenth were written entirely in spanish, so I had to get a dictionary, translate them, and do the weirdest things to get my next clue) or come up with really unique ideas, it can be major fun. For my sixteenth, I'm going all-out and writing a mystery myself, not to mention having everyone dress up in cosplay/halloween costumes. Honestly, it all depends on what you think you'll have the most fun doing! [ Katilix's advice column | Ask Katilix A Question ]
