Well, if you don't close body contact, Twister is always fun.  There's a version of spoons that my sisters like to play.  If you know spoons (the original version) than this version should be better.\n\n  The person that doesn't get the last spoon, takes a drink of whatever beverage you choose and makes a rule like "You can't say the word spoon".  Should somebody say the word, they must take a drink.  Next person that misses the spoon makes another rule like "You have to knock on the table three times before grabbing a spoon".  Rules are made as easily as that, but it takes the whole group to make sure they can catch the person who breaks a rule.  The person that ends up not puking is the winner. \n\nAnother game that is a huge favorite in my family is the game called "Swat".  Everybody sits in a circle with one less chair than participants.  Person that doesn't have a chair stands in the middle of the circle of chairs with a rolled up newspaper.  When he goes to "swat" somebody, they must yell out the name of somebody else in the circle.  If the person doesn't react quick enough, the "swatter" swats them on the shoulders or head or lap.  The person who was swatted gives up his/her chair and takes the newspaper.  Before the first swatter sits down, he/she must give out a name.  If they sit down and don't say a name, they are immediately swatted.  A good "get-to-know" game.  Last time I played that, the person in the middle had a crutch and she was swinging that in a manner that people had to lean out of the way of her swatting.  It is normal to go through several newspapers in this game.  Because the shred.  If you want more details on this game, email me fencebender2002@yahoo.com\n\nP.S. I don't see the strap...

Oh oh oh.....what fun!! \n\nFirst, I want my birthday party at Arby's. I want the Arby's oven mitt to be there to entertain all of my little friends. (he's so freaking adorable don't you think???) I'm picturing Jamoca shakes all around with a birthday cake made of roast beef iced completely in horsey sauce!!! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. After we eat, we'll go into the party room and watch "Star Wars" videos. Then we'll give out toy light sabers to all of my guests and we'll all play and fight and get all jiggy! Then......we'll all go to my house for  a slumber party. We'll tell ghost story about Zombies and dance in our baby doll pajamas to "They Might Be Giants!" Then we'll call up boys (like bearded one, monitor, jimbo and joe--kinder) and giggle and hang up!!! Then we'll all try not to be the first to go to sleep so that no one sticks our hand in Kim Chee to see if it makes us go to the......well you get the picture!!!\n\nWow.....what a perfect birthday that would be!!!

I would start by deciding how many people you're going to invite than decide where you will have it. Wether you rent a place or just have your party at home. You need to decide what kind of food you would like, you could have a caterer or decide to make all the food yourself. For my 16th birthday I had a party at my house. I did a lua theme we had coconuts, a pinata, we made all the food ourselves. We didn't spend alot of money but the party turned out great, it was alot of fun. As long as you have your friends there you will always have a good time. Good Luck!

Go to a nice michelin star restaurant and then a movie.. although it might get a little pricey per person, its old enough to be fun and young enough to be appropriate.. you only turn 14 once!\n\nor you could also go do something fun like go to the zoo if its a nice day.. or go out on a boat if you have water around u (theres a yacht club near my house that has a big dinner cruise ship on it thats really great for parties).. what else can I think of???\n\nyou can always check out if theres any cool events like concerts or car shows in your area at that time?\n\nmaybe laser tag or roller skating??\n\naite thats it im out of ideas...\n\nthe luau was a great idea too tho.. my friend and i had a luau for our grade 8 grad and it was awesome.. we had (parentally supervised) backyard fires on those poles that u can get at canadian tire that keep away mosquitos.. lots of hawaiian food and exotic fruits.. a fake pig.. grass/straw skirts for the girls, leis for everyone and we even learned some hula dancing to teach everyone.. the funnest part was that we got this huge bedsheet draped on the back of my house and rented a projector and watched a movie when it got a little darker.. we had like sheets spread out on the floor and fires n blankets to keep us warm! it was awesome :)\n\ntheres so much you could do! take a couple of your best friends and go to the party stores around you and gudness knows what you guys will come up with to plan!!

Take her out for a nice dinner and maybe even a movie so she will not be alone on her birthday.  Since she is only a friend, I would try and give her something on a small scale.  Maybe a framed photo of the two of you, a nice journal or a DVD that has special meaning to the two of you (something that you went together to see).  I think the key is to get her out and have fun together!

*Ask everyone to wear hawian shirts if they have them. \n*Have two people hand out lays to the guests at the door.\n*Make your mom wear a hula skirt, or just have random people at the party wear them.\n*TIki Torches\n*Maybe you can find some hula dancers to perform while everyone eats dinner\n\nGood luck!

I think a fancy barbeque would be nice!  Everyone could get dressed up and you could make virgin cocktails!  \n\nMaybe a moroccan themed birthday?  Everyone wear really bright, pretty colors and eat yummy exotic foods!

Take her and whoever she's seeing right now out to a fancy restaurant, and maybe even out dancing. Your friend and her BF, you and yours.  If you can afford it, a limo would be a nice touch.\n\n^Lots of money.\n   \nDeck out the garage (or basement, whatever) like a formal.\nGet a disco ball and some tunes. Some of her favorite drinks.\nInvite friends to a formal. All the friends don't need to know what's going on, but your friend will, and i'll bet she appreciates it.\nSend a friend around in Dad's caddillac for her 'limo ride' to and from the party. Don't let it turn into a giant beer blast, keep it fairly small, 6 or 8 couples, and have a nice time. If you want more ideas on how to do something like this cheap, email me at yahoo.com.
