Birthday Ideas

My 11th birthday is coming up in 8 days! WOW! :)

I need to plan a party, fast. I can't have anything big because my parents are starting to think that around my age, you shouldn't be having really big parties. Plus, we are going on a little vacation told to celebrate. (Well, we are going there for a dance competition, but we can vaca, right?)

What should I do? I'll invite maybe 2-4 friends. Pizza and cupcakes of course. But the question is, am I too old for those cheesy party games? And I want this to be original. THIS IS HARD. We have the food and location down. Pizza and cupcakes, at my house. Maybe the pool? But everyone has a pool party. Not original. Just hang out? Boring. Make pizza? No, my BFF does that every year. Well we can take up sometime with presents. Annoy my brother? Boring. Bike ride? Then everyone would have to bring their bikes. Decorate flip flops? Sounds fun, but would everyone else like it? Movie night? That actually sounds kind of fun!

Okay, it's down to a Movie Night when we rent a movie and hang out, or a pool party. Well this helped a lot. If you guys have any other ideas or activities to add on to the party, please COMMENT and tell me! Thanks!

BACK TO SCHOOL!

Okay, so at about this time of the summer everyone remembers there is such thing as school. For me, it's a big thing. That's because this year I am going into middle school! OMG! I'm finally out of elementary school and off to bigger things. Lockers, lots of teachers, and lots of other changes. Now we have to get all the school supplies, backpacks, clothes and lots of other stuff. But it's only the beginning of August, right? We still have about one month left. When it gets to the end of August, things get even crazier. This is typical and you should expect it every year. (well, at least if you live near me or in some crazy family type of neighborhood)
