The 17th Girl

And I am having my party the 25th and I am taking some friends bowling then back to my house to have more people over to watch scary movies and have snacks and pizza. Omg, that's my birthday too, wow so amazing. Here are few ideas I had of my own: Go skating good ole skating just brings everyone together, you get to watch your friends and family fall and dance and eat and just enjoy themselves 2.

Go eat out at favourite restaurant it's that one special day to eat whatever you like and also it will give you and friends to communicate and enjoy yourselves Ad 4. Throw a party you can invite however many people you want and u can manage your own budget since it's your party 5.

Go to movies perfect opportunity to catch up on new movies, and also hang with friends 8. Go shopping you'll never get too old for clothes You can do all these with friends and under a cheap budget. I just turned 17 Monday October 8th and I have no idea what I can do to keep my friends entertained. I'm having a slumber party with my best friend and cousin, but I have no idea what I can do to keep them from being bored. Please don't say any kiddy things because I'm 17 not When my kids were about 17, all their friends used to hang here all weekend.

They made pizza buns, fudge, and milk shakes I'm turning 17 on June 27 and my mom decided it would be totally OK if she were to host a baby shower on the same day. A baby shower that she is not going to be here for. Ad I am sad and angry, but the baby shower is for someone I love a lot.

I have no idea what to do. And if my mom is not going to be here for the baby shower that means she won't be here for my birthday. Do I talk to her about it or just leave it be?

You are 16 years old. Surely you have celebrated your birthday on an alternate day rather than the actual "birth" day before? If not, this is a good time to start. Talk to your mom about an alternate day for your birthday celebration. Since school is out, perhaps you can have a gathering of friends on a weekday. If it is your mom who is important to you on the birthday, just select a day that works for you both. I can see why you'd be upset. Your mom didn't even talk with you about this or whether or not you thought it was okay.

Certainly someone else could have hosted the baby shower, or she could have chosen a different day. Ad The important thing is that you talk to your mother about this and how it made you feel.

My birthday is on March 16th and I don't know what I want to do for my birthday. Why not a "Murder Mystery"? Search "free murder mystery plays". Have fun and have a very happy birthday! I turn 17 in November This my first time planning a party. I don't know what drinks I should give out, since most of my friends are drinkers. I wanted to hand out soda, but I'm stuck on this one; please help. When you say most of your friends are drinkers, that indicates they drink alcohol. I am sure you didn't mean that. But it did give me a thought that might be fun.

There are a bunch of "virgin" drink recipes out there. Ad Here is a link to some of them. This is not to promote how cool it is to drink, before anyone gives me a lecture. But it might be a way to taste what is out there in a fun, safe way. Hey guys, I'm planning a surprise party for my friends 17th birthday. It's going to be at her house and I know who is coming. Do you have any ideas as to how I could decorate her house? I was thinking streamers in her room but I also wanted to do stuff to the rest of her house!

I would make sure you at least do the streamer thing where she will be walking in. Then an occational decoration. A theme you have chosen something she likes. Then go from there. Hey, I am a 17 year old girl. My birthday is on December 23rd.

This has made it almost impossible to have a birthday. I have never had a birthday party before and have no idea what to do. Last year, on my sweet 16, I was all alone and sad.

I do not want to have another awful birthday. You don't have to have the birthday party on your birthday.

Have it at a convenient time --during the holidays - say this year on the 28th or 29 - Fri or Sat night. Invite a few girlfriends over and have a spa evening or just "girl's night" pj party with movies and popcorn and birthday cake. If you want something with guys as well, get one of your friends to help you plan it. I don't know what sorts of things kids in your area do for a party.

You might do something like have a group gather at a bowling alley, for some games, and then have cake there. What you do doesn't have to be elaborate. Or involve groups of multitudes. Even a group of 3 to 6 taking in a movie and then going to someplace like a Dairy Queen for ice cream cake order it in advance can be fun.

My birthday is Dec 26th. I have never felt deprived because of having this day for a birthday. I never had to go to school and usually I could get time off from work after I entered the workforce. When I was a child, my parents used to have a party for me in the spring! I clearly remember a May Day Party with the centerpiece of girls dancing around the Maypole. I think at your age an April Fool's Day party might be fun! When I was 26 I met a woman who was 17 years older than I was. She taught me many things. One thing was to always buy myself a gift. She said to buy myself something for birthday, Christmas, Mother's Day, etc.

That is the only way to ensure you get what you wanted!

You are in charge of your own happiness. So get busy and make some fun for yourself. It might include shopping or movies Charlie is an average French suburban teenager, but when she becomes fast friends with Sarah, the rebellious new girl at school, she discovers there's nothing average about how she feels. This summer, at the port-city of Lorient in Brittany, something amazing happened. Young rebellious dreamer Camille is already eight weeks pregnant, the father of her unborn child is completely unimportant and out of the picture, nevertheless, the unripe school girl boldly decides to keep the baby.

And then comes the unforeseen surprise. Camille, as the undisputed alpha-girl in class, convinces her high school friends to form an unbreakable pact and get pregnant simultaneously, raise their children together, be free, happy, and most of all, in charge of their lives. Before long, sixteen more girls will confidently take the plunge in a purposeful act of emancipation, dreaming of changing the world and courageously trying something different from their fearful parents. Is this the face of progress or is it just an unquiet and tumultuous childish curiosity?

Either way, when you are an intrepid beautiful dreamer full of energy, who can really stand in your way? Written by Nick Riganas. Instantaneously, 17 Girls reminds me of the American film The Bling Ring, which centered around a group of spoiled adolescents growing up in Hollywood that would venture out at night and rob celebrity's homes, stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of values.

17 Girls - Wikipedia

Their plans were more than just rob whomever whenever but sporadic, carefully-planned that would take place when the celebrity was out of town, judging by their Twitter feed and social networking activity. The film was immediately criticized for being empty, somewhat superficial, and lacking any real depth, and brief searches for the Coulin sisters' Delphine and Muriel 17 Girls has warranted similar criticism. Let me reiterate the reason for the emptiness one more time.

This kind of act is empty and stupid, and the Coulin sisters make not attempt to disguise the true stupidity of what these girls did. However, they do make an attempt to justify it, and that is when we have a film. This pact begins when seventeen-year-old Camille Louise Grinberg discovers she is pregnant after the condom breaks during sex with her partner. By making the choice to keep the child, despite abortion and adoption being available options, she manages to encourage her friends to also have children and get pregnant.

One even resorts to getting impregnated by a twenty-four-year old homeless man. The reason the girls give to justify their pact is their desire to be loved unconditionally and their hunger for companionship. If one were to look closely at the homelives of these girls, one would see nothing but emptiness and sadness, with no real parental guidance or dependency whatsoever. Their parents are barely around to cook and care for them let alone give them moral guidance or help them along in school or in life.

The girls resort to getting pregnant as a means of being the parent they never adequately had growing up. The other girls have their babies, but they do not form a "community. Premiere magazine likened 17 Girls to The Virgin Suicides by Sofia Coppola saying "same languid pop, same delicately grainy picture, same kind of heterogeneous female cast, same absence of boys, reduced to the roles of stooges".
