13 fun things to do with your best friend

 

Check these out, too...

  • Should you tell him how ya feel before school ends?
  • 7 fresh books you've gotta read this summer
  • Tune into summertime with our ultimate summer playlist
  • 8 BFF Reads: Characters' friendships you won't want to miss
  • 16 fun in the sun summertime dates
Friendship Week starts tomorrow and we are getting psyched! As summer is slowin’ down, we can’t get enough quality time with our besties. To pump up your pre-BTS hang out seshes, we’ve got 13 fabulously fun thing to do with your numero-uno.

 

1. Hit the photo booth at your local mall for some silly it-takes-two snapshots.

 

2. Hold a weekend’s worth of sporty competitions—bowling, mini-golfing, batting cage—to see who comes out on top. The winner gets a prize…and the loser gets treated to ice cream.

 

3. Volunteer together. Whether you wanna go to a nursing home, an animal shelter or a soup kitchen, your help will be appreciated and you’ll have a blast making a difference together.

 

4. Try each other’s style on for size. Swap clothing, shoes or accessories with your sweetie and see how her look looks on you.

 

5. Throw a party. It doesn’t have to be a blow-out bash, but with your best girl at your side, you two will have tons of fun…with half the responsibility.

 

6. Hit the playground. When was the last time you crossed the monkey bars? Give in to your inner 7-year-old and have a ball.

 

7. Play two truths and a lie. Turn up the heat on this classic sleepover game with the person who knows you best.

 

8. Have a ridiculous tea party. To up the fun factor, assign yourself different characters and yuk it up.

 

9. Paint your room. Weren’t you thinking a fresh color might be nice?

 

10. Start some seedlings in a plastic cup or a small pot. Go ahead, bedeck their containers and give ‘em names. You know you want to.

 

11. Marathon the movies you adored five years ago. Cue the giggles!

 

12. At the beach? Play in the sand. Make sand castles, drip castles or get buried.

 

13. Play M*A*S*H. Because it never, ever gets old.

plz help!! im about to cry!!! im so bummed.. i need advice!!!! i have a serious dilema. i signed up for art class and got a computer appl. now my mom callled the officve and said theyll change it but i found out theywill change the entire sched. i dont want that! i already made my maps around my new school and vistied the classes... what would you do? and do you have any other advice?




Hey Girl,

Weigh the pros and cons of switching -- maybe getting into art is worth getting a new schedule - it's up to you!

Sorry emraemango. That sounds horrible. I can't imagine how you're feeling or how you can go through that. This has been a very depressing Sunday.

Hey chica! You could have a themed movie marathon.. like international filks or classic black and whites. Or, you could give each other makeovers, or even bake something Smile

MOD MOD MOD!!! Whats M.A.S.H and how do u play? Sorry I've just never heard of itSmile thanks

 

Hey chica!  It's a little hard to explain, but I'll try! ;)  First, you write MASH across the top of the page.  That stands for Mansion, Apartment, Shack, House.  Basically, this game is all about figuring out your future life.  So then, you pick out a bunch of categories (who your husband will be, where you'll live, future job, wedding dress color, how many kids, etc.) and write down 4 items from each one.  Then, you have the friend who's copying down this for you draw dash lines until you say stop.  The number of dashes is how often you cross something off the list, which that person does until there's only one from each category - your future life!  I'm not sure if that makes sense... if not, try googling it! xoxo

MOD MOD MOD Help! I have dark lines under my eyes that don't ever go away. At first I thought I was just tired, so when summer started I got a full 12 hours of sleep every night. Then my mom said it could be allergies, but I have been on allergy medication for a while now. Why do I have these dark lines and how can I make them go away?

 

Hey chica, If you mean like dark circles, you might wanna read this:  http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/08/10/Ditch-dark-under-eye-circles.aspx.  Otherwise, take good care of your skin and use concealer if you wanna cover them up a bit.  You could also talk to a dermatologist about it.  But remember, we all have flaws (or things we think of as flaws!), but it doesn't make you any less beautiful. Smile  xoxo
