Im not going to america

LOL sorry I didnt know your location? Where is your location?

I spent my 21st birthday taking two finals in college. I didn't celebrate that night, either, because I had another final the next day!

That's what you get with mid-December birthdays. BTW, I'm not suggesting you do that.

American 21st birthdays are so concentrated on alcohol that I don't know what I would even suggest. I went bar hopping at midnight and the next night I went to a party and I *think* I had fun I've heard that I got in a fight with my neighbor because one of their friends thought it would be a fantastic idea to take the fire extinguisher, aim it directly at our door, and spray it at 3 am. So I freaked out, dragged all of us outside (you know, god knows what you're breathing in with that powdery dust!) and put Zissou in my ex's car and almost got him in a fistfight with the neighbor saying he should clean it up RIGHT NOW. After all, it was all over our living room. The landlord made him do it in the morning anyway.

So. I hope your birthday is way better than mine.

lol our family has always been big on the big 21 .
i was pregnant when i turned 21 , my family threw me a suprise party (i couldnt drink) i was huge and tired lol but it was a nice suprise.

my sister just turned 21 , she didnt want a party or go out drinking so instead , her and her boyfriend , me and my SO , and my mum and my dad left the kids with family and went to a theam park , we had so much fun and got some really memorbile pictures of us all.

That is fun all in itself! Go swim with the dolphins, visit the kangaroos and koalas! I would love to go to australia someday... You are going to have a great birthday!

I got very drunk and had to be carried home... Isn't this the usual way?

I do plan on going to a wild park to see the roos and koalas but not on my birthday! My friends will bag the crap out of me! its not like im a tourist there

I Will just have to nag a couple of friends who are there to think something up for me

(i lived in australia for 5 and a half years just so you know )


I guess i will get extremely drunk and make my buddy carry me home

Lucky you! Get wasted... Drink some for me... I cant drink anymore! My uncle use to live in Australia (random info) looks like a gorgeous place! I was trying to help but successfully failed (lol)... Hope you have fun either way and no matter what you do!

I will be there for a whole month and i will be there for my 21st! Just like the americans and the brits the 21st is a special birthday. Not because we are legally able to drink as we can do it from 18 onwards but its just spescial!!

So although i will be home i'm technically not home because i dont have my own place just yet!

I want to celebrate my birthday that will be memorable for everyone

This is where you guys come into help! I know you're all so creative and helpful.

Yeah my friend lives in warrandyte and his backyard boarders the national park, saw lots of roos at night.

But where i used to live in Lower Templestowe there were no roos

Ill mainly be staying in Bulleen and Sunbury

I havent turned 21 yet, but our legal drinking age is 19. I haven't done anything fun since I turned legal age on my birthdays though. 19th I had the flu and I went to dinner and had a couple drinks and then went to bed and my 20th I had to work and I did 4pm-close at Subway so I was stuck inside the entire night. I am thinking about going somewhere for my 21st (which is in august).

Ooo this is a good thread as I'm turning 21 on May 12th.... so far nothing is planned and I don't think I'll do anything special because I only finish student teaching May 11th, so I will be driving home either all night of May 11th (3 hour drive) or in the afternoon on my birthday my parents and family live 7 hours away and it sucks. I didn't do anything special went I turned 16, besides get knocked up and then went to a cute little pub with Dh and my parents when I turned 19 (legal drinking age here) and I didn't even drink lol.

I'm not a partier, so I don't really know what to do either. *shrugs*

Cool, i pass through Warrandyte all the time! tristan lives out near Kinglake. I love sitting down by the river eating fish & chips and it's so busy when they have their annual festival

Wow, It's been quite some time since my 21st! It was 1989!!

Me and my best friend, Pete, went to this club called "Shooters", where they have a barber's chair set up so you can recline and have your drinks poured straight into your mouth. I don't even remember what I had! I do know, however, that I and this other guy decided that it would be so cool to crack our foreheads together. Afterwards, I tossed my dinner out in the parking lot and Pete drove me to my girlfriends house where we bumped uglies all night long...
