I've taken the effort to create a list of fun and relatively inexpensive activities to try. I've tried to make them appeal to different types of people, from those who are seeking something "chill" to those who are, well, not.
1. go berry picking- I used to do this when I was younger and it was always something that made my entire year. Sounds lame? No. Inspired by the poem "Blackberry Picking" by Seamus Heaney (I recently read this in English class.)
2. Have a fondue party- whoever came up with the concept of dipping food into chocolate was pure genius.
3. Host a rave- ok. This, in reality, is a really horrible idea. But if you can pull it off without getting in trouble, maaad props. Include a solid dj and some glow in the dark paint. If you do happen to get in trouble, don't blame me- it's not like I didn't warn you.
4. Make a music video - Grab a video camera and a song. Lip sync your way through. i've seen people on youtube make really, hilariously good ones.
5. Walmart- it seems too classic, but it's actually one of the best places to go when you're bored. I can attest to this.
6. Watermelon eating- cut the top off of a watermelon and grab a few spoons, in addition to a few friends. then keep scooping out the inside of watermelon and you can eat it, like ice cream! Much fun if eaten outside on a picnic blanket.
7. Explore a city- If you live in the suburbs, chances are there's a city that isn't too far away. Go to an area ie: Center city. just walk up and down the streets. Chances are, if it's a nice part of town, you'll find really cute places, which will spark other activities!
8. Bike ride- an often forgotten past time. No destination necessary, just riiiide.
9. Tie Dye- you can easily find tie dye at arts and crafts stores and it's actually so fun. suggestion: couple this with the watermelon eating.
10. Create a secret book and put in the school library for someone else to find and contribute to.
12. Start an "improv everywhere" type thing- if you don't know what this is, go to http://www.youtube.com/user/ImprovEverywhere
11. Just dance- gonna be ok. dah dah, doo doo.
