If ur a teen about 17 going 18 what fun thing would u like to do in mall of asia? no ice skating please.? its kind of a birthday thing and im sick and tired of parties. so i wanted to do somethig different. thing is, im not even sure what mall of asia has to offer. i have heard that market market has this amazing laser tag game but i dont think i wanna do that for my birthday. |
| Live a little! Laser tag is fun! If they arcades in this mall, I would go there and to the food court for a bite to eat. I don't know how your country is, but you could have some fun with a game like giving yourself and friends a list of items to hunt for and ask people if they have them or would lend them to you, (small things like a pencil) and see who gets the most items in a certain period of time. Pick a place to meet when the time is up and the winner should get a small token gift. If people are bothered by this, then don't do it. It wouldn't bother me. It's called a scavenger hunt. You can do it in your neighborhood. Return any items that people give you unless they don't want them back. Go out for hot chocolate and /or ice cream. Have fun and use your imagination! See what the mall has to offer and decide from there. I would check it out before the party. Happy Birthday! |
Why do Asian countries, such as Japan and Korea have low teen pregnancy rate while US has one of the highest? What values do they teach there in Asia that reduces teen pregnancy rate? |
Family and social values!
....Not self centered...Teen pregnancy is a kind of shame bringing to your parents and entire family. |
Teen service trip to africa or asia? i would love to go to india or china for sure but i wouldnt like to spend a ton of money. i would like to work with guyren and/or other community members. i can only go during the summer also. i am fifteen so that also limits my choices but if you guys have any suggestions that would be great! thanks! |
Not sure if you would want to do that. Maybe you should wait until around 18, that way, more opportunities will be open to you.
Merry Christmas! |
