The other ideas are good.\n\nBut here's another idea.  Since it's all in the same week, how about a weekend getaway to somewhere you haven't been before.  That would be some awesome time alone and away from friends and family.  Trust me, it worked well for me and my guy, and his birthday isn't anywhere close to any other holiday.  I still look back on that time with wonderful memories.  It was great.

depends how much money you have! if you have $500,000 just lying around then throw a giant party with everyone that hates you at school is invited so you can show them how amazing you are!\n\nIf you are a normal human being like the rest of us, then I say grab a bunch of your closest friends, and go out and have a day of fun! I can't tell you what fun is, because eveyrone likes different things.\n\nA couple of things you could do is play minigolf, go to the beach, try something new, like wakeboarding (if thats new for you). Then go out to dinner with those friends, and maybe end the night at a concert, theatre production or movie. You can even stay up all night and have a sleepover, and play boardgames or video games or a lil bit of both. \n\nLike I said, I don't really know what things you are into, but as long as its fun and you are with your mates, it's all good.\n\noh, and Happy Birthday!

Turn it into a big family and friends event. Get both guys and girls involved. Have a cookout. That is what I did.

Just gather with your closest friends in your house, or in one of them...and have a good time...in order to have a good time not necessarily you need to go to a club

Make another date for them. If won't be your actual birthday but, atleast you will get to hang out with them.

You should invite people that you are comfortable with and your time will be smooth and not intense. You want to have a good time and don't want drama. You can invite the person you like for a movie, the pool, or bowling a different day! have fun is the key;)

My idea for you is to have a nightclub themed party. You can name your nightclub "birthday" or "17". Send out invitation as if they were to visit the exclusive V.I.P room of this new club, but make sure people know it's for your birthday party. Decorate by exchanging your normal lights for blacklights, colored light bulbs, and soft lighting. Have each room or section of your house as a different section of the club. The techno room, the video games room, the hip-hop room, the hang-out room. \n\nSince I'm assuming you aren't going to drink, make some mocktails. A good site for recipes is http://www.healthunit.on.ca/mocktails/recipes.html. Pick about 5-10 of your favorites and make a menu to sit at your "bar". Have someone mixing drinks (an older sibling, a friend). Serve the drinks in cocktail glasses, tumblers and martini glasses. \n\nThe best place to get invitations are these sites http://www.birthdayinvitation.org/ http://www.classiccommunication.com/\nhttp://www.cardsshoppe.com/\nOR you can do your own invitation online at evite.com and e-mail it to everyone. That's what I would recommend. \n\nI think you sould serve pizza or something easy and fast. You can even go out a buy a bunch of frozen foods at your local warehouse store and cook them all up before the party. Don't pay for delivery, go out and buy frozen pizzas, or for even more fun, get all cheese frozen pizzas and have people garnish their own slices. Have peperoni, diced chicken, sausage, peppers, tomatoes, bacon ,and other things that you like on pizza. Make sure you have a cake, and have it iced bright white so it stands out under the lights. \n\nThe last thing you need is yourself. Don't let the party planning stress you out too much and just have a good time. It's all about you so make it really personalized. And have fun! You deserve it.

I would suggest a night out somewhere all together, not something at work. It's hard to celebrate in a professional environment, so maybe invite everyone out for a dinner together (I took my work pals to Olive Garden and we all had fun) or some place where you can all get together and enjoy each other that one last time.

I'd turned 17 a couple of weeks ago and it'd been a good birthday bash for me. I had invited a group of close friends over to this cool Mediterreanean/Egyptian restaurant for lunch while my parents invited some close family members. But what was great was that the restaurant had a private room so that was where us teenagers hung out, watching DVDs while pigging out on the great food. \n\nFind a great, affordable place to have a lunch party at and remember that the important ingredient is to have great company with you ((((;
