So it’s coming up to my 18th birthday (yay for adult-hood!) and I want to do something a bit classier than iniviting all my friends over to get drunk!
So does anyone have any ideas, because I’m clueless! I’d like to do something a bit different, but I’m not very creative!
So please, please give me some suggestions!
Thanks!
In the United States, one is eligible to vote and is generally considered an adult upon reaching 18. Oddly enough, we don’t let you drink alcohol until you’re 21, but that’s another thread. If you can vote at 18 down under, perhaps you could print up a bunch of fake ballots for something? Have an election party? I have NO idea of what Australian politics are like. But hey, you SAID different.
Go to a strip club…often times I wish I had done that on my 18th birthday just to get it out of the way.
Sexually harrass a pizza delivery boy, as a group. He’ll feel better, and so will you and your gal pals!
Or, you could all dress real slutty and roam some shopping mall as a pack.
Or, make prank phone calls. Can’t beat prank phone calls. Hope Caller ID isn’t popular on Oz…
We went for a helicopter ride on my buddy’s 18th.
Then we got drunk.
Do you want to have a party at home or go out?
Some great suggestions Krokodil 
Hehe, a strip club sounds tempting but [immature school girl voice] eeewww! naked people! [/isgv]
Good point WILLASS, I hadn’t really thought about it! Well half of my friends will still 17, so it would probably be better to have a party at home.
Hmm… I still don’t know! I still need some more suggestions!
How about giving everyone a lottery ticket as a party favor?
Of course, then I’d only invite friends who’d be willing to split the winnings with you . . . 
Hire a male stripper to pose as a delivery boy.
Tell no one. It will get their attention.
I don’t know the laws in Australia, but if there are things that are now legal for you to do that weren’t at age 17, invite your friends to partake in all the stuff you can now do. Voting doesn’t have a lot of cache, but in the US, 18 means you can vote, buy cigarettes, buy pornography, get into a lot more clubs (but not all, thanks to the drinking age), hire strippers, get your own credit card… etc. Everything an adult can do, except drink or rent a car (or run for President).
So, depending on what becomes legal at 18 in Australia, pick your favorite vices from the list and go indulge them. In a rented car, if possible.
Why don’t you all get dressed up and go to a play? It’s something different for most young adults. It’s classy. It can be affordable. And it’s fun.
Back to your place for a little champagne and appetizers. Not puking drunk, mind you…just a bit tipsy.
