No current Talk conversations about this book.
I started reading this book because I heard there was about to be a movie made for it. I want to see the movie and I always read the book first if I am going to watch the movie. So, I picked up this book and it was not what I expected. It was intriguing as well as bewildering living inside a teenage boy's head for a little while.
I felt a real connection to Charlie though. The passage that talks about how he does things to make everone else happy even if it doesn't make him happy, that is totally me and I understood Charlie in better in that moment. I also felt a connection to him when I found out what happened at the end of the book. Not his actions but the actions that were taken against him. So many people have been through that sort of situation, too many, and even if it sounds twisted it is nice to not be the only victim of something so haneous.
There were a lot of pop culture references in this book, many of which I did not understand but I am going to definitely try to read a few of Charlie's books, listen to some of his music, and watch Rockie Horror Picture Show. I enjoyed this book for the way it shines a dark light on very real problems for the teenage generation.
In The Perks of the Being a Wallflower, the precocious protagonist Charlie takes us through the roiling cesspool that is freshman year of high school. No hideous hunk of it bypasses the plot - bullying, school fights, drugs, unrequited love, abortion, suicide, child abuse. But we're not left to drown here. There's also love, comradery, compassion, forgiveness, and redemption. Charlie survives the gauntlet of freshman year, less naïve, less fearful, and on track to better things.
Stephen Chbosky transmits his story through letters. The recipient of the letters is anonymous, though presumably a girl also in high school. The style is easy and therefore believable, and it matures with the protagonist. Through this vernacular, Charlie expresses profound visions of his world - a critique of those who insist on verbosity.
Out in the world, it isn't uncommon to feel the insinuation that the centers of attention have monopolies on value and respect - the football star, the celebrity, the pop musician, the talk show host. Even the language for the shadow-chasers betrays the bias toward the sponges of attention. A wallflower merely decorates the walls like wallpaper, useless to the events that take place in the room. A sideliner ought to be in the game, but for one reason or another, watches others do the action. But contrary to the language itself, Chbosky proposes an alternative system of worth. Through the eyes of a reserved freshman in high school, he shows the value in the observer.
Naturally then, the story is an affirmation to the reader who is a wallflower. It legitimizes the life outside of football, outside of popularity. Outside of these, Charlie refines his observations and reflections, he plies the craft of writing, he sees firsthand the spectrum of high school life, and he takes part in strong relationships with other misfits. There's more enduring value in these than in the stereotypical high school scene of mindless jocks and flaunting bimbos.
"You see things. You keep quiet about them. And you understand." This is the wallflower, according to Charlie's friend Patrick. Quiet observation, introspection, reflection - the praiseworthy traits that the jocks and bimbos stereotypically lack. While Chbosky values this rendition of the wallflower, he doesn't exult all qualities a wallflower might have. Explicitly, he admonishes the tendency to trap oneself eternally in a solitary state of thinking.
So, apart from telling a story, the book offers a challenge, a moral of sorts. When we read The Perks of Being a Wallflower, we become the wallflowers and the non-participants who watch Charlie the wallflower develop, the non-participant participating, the sideliner breaking from forever thinking alone. Though fictional, Charlie's story is plausible and leads our imaginations to realize that it's entirely possible for us the readers to emulate Charlie and brave the tangles of our own worlds.
This is the most optimistic, hopeful book I have ever read. It is beautiful, and gorgeous, and... infinite.
I found this book extremely emotional, diverse and truly wonderful. Mr Chbosky allows the reader [me] to feel the emotions that the characters feel, to see what they see and to hear what they hear. The experience of this book has in some ways been life changing, and I will always remember the first time I read it.
I see a lot of negative comments on this book…
Yes i did buy it because i saw there was a movie of it.
And in my opinion the book really wasn't that bad. I really liked it, and yes maybe it's a wierd plot twist with the whole abuse thing it still was a good read.
And as always for me the book was way better then the movie.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0671027344, Paperback)What is most notable about this funny, touching, memorable first novel from Stephen Chbosky is the resounding accuracy with which the author captures the voice of a boy teetering on the brink of adulthood. Charlie is a freshman. And while's he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. He's a wallflower--shy and introspective, and intelligent beyond his years, if not very savvy in the social arts. We learn about Charlie through the letters he writes to someone of undisclosed name, age, and gender, a stylistic technique that adds to the heart-wrenching earnestness saturating this teen's story. Charlie encounters the same struggles that many kids face in high school--how to make friends, the intensity of a crush, family tensions, a first relationship, exploring sexuality, experimenting with drugs--but he must also deal with his best friend's recent suicide. Charlie's letters take on the intimate feel of a journal as he shares his day-to-day thoughts and feelings:
I walk around the school hallways and look at the people. I look at the teachers and wonder why they're here. If they like their jobs. Or us. And I wonder how smart they were when they were fifteen. Not in a mean way. In a curious way. It's like looking at all the students and wondering who's had their heart broken that day, and how they are able to cope with having three quizzes and a book report due on top of that. Or wondering who did the heart breaking. And wondering why.With the help of a teacher who recognizes his wisdom and intuition, and his two friends, seniors Samantha and Patrick, Charlie mostly manages to avoid the depression he feels creeping up like kudzu. When it all becomes too much, after a shocking realization about his beloved late Aunt Helen, Charlie retreats from reality for awhile. But he makes it back in due time, ready to face his sophomore year and all that it may bring. Charlie, sincerely searching for that feeling of "being infinite," is a kindred spirit to the generation that's been slapped with the label X. --Brangien Davis

OvaScience stock up despite wider loss for 2012
Send this to a friend
- Don Seiffert
- BioFlash Editor- Boston Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
Less than two months from the company's plans to be listed on the Nasdaq, fertility treatment company OvaScience Inc. (OTC: OVSC) saw its stock rise after reporting a net loss of $13.5 million, or $2.33 per share, in 2012.
In a federal filing Monday, the Cambridge company - which is planning its first revenue-producing product to hit the market next year - said last year's loss was up from the $2.6 million for the nine months it was in operation in 2011 since being incorporated in April of that year. The increased loss was due, it said, to the initiation of trials of AUGMENT, its lead product, which aims to make in-vitro fertilization more likely to be successful by isolating fresh mitochondria from a woman's own egg precursor cells and then adding the mitochondria into the woman's egg during the procedure.
About $6.3 million of the company's expenses in 2012 went to research and development, while the remaining $7.2 million went to general and administrative costs, according to the filing.
The company plans to have data from the AUGMENT trial by the second half of 2014, and if the data is positive, it plans to commercialize it around the same time.
The company's second product, OvaTure, began pre-clinical development in October 2012. It involves the creation of mature fertilizable eggs from a woman's own egg precursor cells.
OvaScience listed its shares publicly through a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in August. It has raised $43 million from Bessemer Venture Partners, General Catalyst Partners and Longwood Fund. In a statement on Monday, the company's co-founder and CEO, Michelle Dipp, said the company plans to move to the Nasdaq this April.

Torchlight II
Can't find cacklespit's realm...
I've been looking around the sundered battlefield map at least 4 or 5 times, checking every corner. I've googled it and the only useful info I found is that I need a bell to activate the quest, which I did find earlier. I have no idea what I should be looking out for though, if I need a certain quest active in order to find him or if he randomly appears around the map. Help please!
Now Playing: Anything I will acquire during the course of the Steam Summer Sale
If you have the quest, you are suppost to find a ghost/spirit person who will take you there. I found him in the top right corner. Do his quest and he will open a portal.
If you don't have the quest you can talk to one of the racoon guys at the bottom of the imperial camp.
You can always re-roll the world by going to LAN mode and checking "re-roll world".
Did you do Cacklespit's first quest in the area where you found the bell? The one where the reward is s***ty boots or a suicide potion?
Cincinnati Reds: 92-60 NLC clinched. Oakland Raiders: 1-2
Oda break tracker 2012- 5
You use the bell in the Blightbogs, and that more or less starts the quest line.
Bear with me... things are about to get grizzly!
Fox is HOT!

Organic farming can out produce
all types of commercial farming and on the cheap, No chemicals to buy, no fertilizer, and no nitrogen.
If your referring to Dr.Elaine Ingham as some person on youtube that doesn't know any thing. She know much more than the closed minded idiots in Monsanto that are poisoning the population. By your comments you didn't check who she is. She has only stuck her whole life into this. She was a professor at a University in Oregon, and is now conducting studies for the government all over the USA. She has proven it is possible for organics to out produce conventional farmers. But here is exactly the problem so many people are brain washed by big business and big government that can not see the truth.
Monsanto will loose Billions if this ever get out, so do you think they will ever give a straight answer
Here is another place for you to get info on organics, here you will see DR. Ingham is not just a splash in the pan.

Serge Gnabry leads Arsenal contingent who make our London Team of the Week
Published: 01 October 2013
Updated: 09:52, 01 October 2013
After a weekend filled with shocks which saw both Manchester clubs lose, it's hardly surprising to see Premier League leaders Arsenal heavily represented in Standard Sport's London team of the week, compiled in association with Whoscored.com.
Aaron Ramsey continued his fine run of form in front of goal during Arsenal's 2-1 win over Swansea, taking his tally to four goals in six games in the Premier League, and is accompanied by his three team-mates Wojciech Szczesny, Olivier Giroud and Serge Gnabry.
Tottenham and Chelsea played out an enthralling 1-1 draw in the London derby on Saturday which saw striker Fernando Torres controversially dismissed, and the Spaniard may have been a contender for a place had he not have seen red after a superb display.
Spurs' midfield duo Mousa Dembele and goalscorer Gylfi Sigurdsson are among the names in this week's line-up after impressing against the Blues, while Chelsea captain John Terry makes the cut after his commanding performance at the back.

Worst smog in a month hits Beijing as Olympic athletes leave it to the last minute to acclimatise to poor air
Related Articles
Published: 27 July 2008
With only 11 days to go until the start of the Beijing Olympics, this was the smoggy scene in the Chinese capital yesterday.
Visibility was down to half a mile in some parts, including the National Stadium, while the Athletes' Village complex could not be seen from the nearby Olympic Green.
This was the smoggy scene in Beijing yesterday
The city's notoriously polluted air has cast a cloud over the Games, with organisers threatening to postpone events if it is bad.
City officials confidently - and possibly unwisely - predict that air quality will be good for the Games. Their efforts to curb pollution include taking half of Beijing's 3.3million vehicles off the roads and closing factories.
Today state media reported drastic measures - pulling more cars from the roads and shutting down additional factories - could be taken if the air quality does not improve.
Haze: Pollution today in Beijing was at its worst for a month, but officials say air quality will be good by the time the Olympics start on August 8
The grayish haze was one of the worst seen in Beijing in the past month despite tough traffic restrictions imposed a week ago to help reduce pollution.
The city's notoriously polluted air remains one of the biggest question marks hanging over the games, which begin on August 8.
'The air quality in August will be good,' Du Shaozhong, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, told reporters on Sunday. He did not explain the reasons for his optimism.
Du blamed the thick haze on a combination of fog and light wind unable to blow away the pollution, but he said pollution levels now are 20 per cent lower than one year ago in similar weather conditions. He did not provide any details.
'Our job is to decrease the pollution as much as possible, but sometimes it is very common to have fog in Beijing at this time,' Du said.
Pollution: Tough traffic restrictions have been in force since July 1 to improve the air quality in the Chinese capital, but athletes will be at the mercy of the winds
Olympic athletes have been trickling into Beijing, but are expected to begin arriving in larger numbers this week.
Some, though, were headed to training sites in South Korea, Japan and other places to avoid the Beijing air until the last possible minute.
'No, it doesn't really look so good. Yesterday was better but the day I arrived, Tuesday, was awful,' said Gunilla Lindberg, an International Olympic Committee vice president from Sweden who is staying in the Athletes' Village.
Jacques Rogge, president of the IOC, has warned that outdoor endurance events will be postponed if the air quality is poor.
Drastic efforts to curb pollution include pulling half of Beijing's 3.3 million vehicles off the roads, closing factories in the city and in a half dozen surrounding provinces, and halting most construction in the capital.
Some 300,000 heavily polluting vehicles, such as aging industrial trucks, have been banned since July 1.
Experts have said that while the measures are sure to reduce pollution, they are not a guarantee for blue skies during the games.
Wind can blow pollution to Beijing from thousands of miles away, while a lack of wind can cause chemicals and particulate matter to build up in the city.
'There's only so much you can do with local emission reduction,' said Veerabhadran Ramanathan, an atmospheric scientist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego.
He is leading a team that is studying the impact of Beijing's pollution reduction measures.
'You're basically at the mercy of the winds,' he said.

China takes to the streets after falling out with the neighbours
Saturday 18 September 2010
A collision between a fishing boat and the coast guard does not, on the face of it, sound like an internationally significant incident. Nor does the death of a panda. But when the parties involved are China and Japan, the stakes are considerably higher.
Relations between the two countries are never easy. But as police prepare for Chinese demonstrators taking to the streets today to mark the 79th anniversary of the Japanese invasion, tensions are particularly high. Protests are not a regular feature of the anniversary, but recent diplomatic incidents have brought one of the most crucial relationships in the region into as sharp a focus as ever.
The spat was sparked last week when Japanese coast guards chased a Chinese trawler which had entered waters near a group of islands controlled by Japan but claimed by China, called Diaoyu in Chinese and Senkaku in Japanese. They are located some 190 kilometres east of Taiwan.
The Japanese arrested the captain after the Chinese vessel collided with two Japanese patrol boats. The captain could face prosecution, although the trawler and its 14-member crew have since returned to China.
And as if that incident were not enough, a difficulty over an endangered species has emphasised still further how tricky relations remain. That episode began when a Chinese male giant panda called Kou Kou, or Xing Xing in Chinese, died in a Japanese zoo after it was sedated so that it could donate semen in an artificial insemination programme. The giant panda is China's national symbol, and the death of one is considered a big issue.
The 14-year-old Kou Kou died of a heart attack after failing to recover from an anaesthetic at the Oji zoo in Kobe. Zoo officials said they are investigating its death, and a team of Chinese officials has joined them. The zoo faces a penalty of up to £300,000.
Neither of these incidents would count for much in isolation. But even though economic relations between the two neighbours are good, the Chinese still bitterly resent the brutal occupation of China by the Imperial Army, which began with the Japanese invasion of Manchuria in 1931.
Many Chinese insist Tokyo has never shown adequate contrition for atrocities carried out during the occupation, including the "Rape of Nanking", which began when Japanese troops invaded China's wartime capital on 13 December 1937. Chinese historians claim that over a six-week period more than 300,000 people were killed, although some Japanese historians insist the number was much lower.
Huang Dahui, of Renmin University's International Relations department, said the current row is all about "face", but has a major historical background. Mr Huang points to the period five years ago when relations hit rock-bottom over then-Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's visits to the Yasukuni Shrine, where Japanese war criminals are among the war dead commemorated – a gesture that was likely to inflame tensions.
Today's anniversary, he said, is likewise bound to be difficult. "September 18 is a very important day for both governments to think about their relations and reflect on the lessons of war. What I cannot understand is how on this most sensitive of days, the Japanese government still chose to deal with the issue in this way, which is guaranteed to pull the nationalism trigger in China," Mr Huang said. He believes the power structure is changing because of China's growing economic influence, prompting Japan to behave in "a less proper way".
If protests do break out today – though the organisers insist they have no such intention – it will echo a particularly difficult period in 2004, when violent anti-Japanese riots over the publication of a history textbook in Japan, which the Chinese said minimised atrocities carried out during the occupation of China, further inflamed tensions. Japanese businesses and the country's embassy were attacked, and Japanese made products were destroyed in the incidents, which marked a low-point since relations normalised in 1972.
The latest crisis has not reached such worrying heights. But as long as a panda and a fishing boat can bring people to the streets, it is hard to see the two countries behaving in as neighbourly a way as their mutual economic interests might suggest they should.

The recent news about American Idol diving deeper into using Twitter to determine its winner has got me thinking that they could actually serve a very practical purpose. My modest suggestion is that we should use their system to replace the venerable electoral college the next time we have to vote for our President in 2016. Think this is crazy? Here is why it could work.
Idol allows people to vote up to 50 times for their favorite singer. You can vote in a variety of ways: online, telephone, using Twitter or their own smartphone app. What if we took this model and used it for our political elections? You can split your 50 votes any way you choose: you can put all of them on one candidate, if you feel that strongly. Or if both candidates offer some appeal, you can devise your own weighting system and split your votes.
It takes the "chicago style" voting model (vote early, vote often) and celebrates it. No more worries about checking voter IDs to ensure that someone didn't vote twice: come on down and stay all day at the polls if you want to cast your 50 ballots one at a time, or run the whole lot through at once! (Let's see those hanging chads deal with that situation.) My plan eliminates the whole notion of having certain states become pivotal battlegrounds (I am talking to you, Florida and Ohio) because of electoral oddities. Now there are plenty of votes to spread around.
Having Idol-style voting could make the whole notion of PACs irrelevant, because you have to assume that most people aren't that passionate about their candidates and want to give multiple people props. And think about those debates leading up to the big vote: we could have instantaneous feedback as the candidates prattle on. No more waiting for the Sunday morning talk shows to find out who "won" which debate: the People Have Spoken! It could save us a lot of time, and we could get that instant feedback that we all crave.
Or it could be a disaster, and we could have people who bundle votes just like they bundle contributions to the PACs, and more power could be concentrated into a few. It is hard to tell which way this would go. I admit that I don't have all of this figured out. Not to mention getting our Constitution changed too.
At least in our last election, we had the popular vote match the electoral vote (which it usually does, except the 2000 Bush/Gore election and a few others). And while there are certainly good reasons for keeping the electoral college, maybe it is time we brought voting into the 21st century with a more interesting mechanism. It might get more young people to vote knowing that have now 50 times to do it. Or maybe we need to run the actual elections during the Idol live TV contests, and have various singers represent the candidates to make the entire voting process more entertaining. The candidates already court Hollywood and Nashville stars for their endorsements, this just takes it a step further. It is the obvious next step of politics and entertainment, ever since Clinton played his sax on late night TV.
In fact, while we are eliminating institutions, we could replace the entire Congress roll call with Idol-style voting in real time on particular bills. Everyone could watch TV and vote on legislation: this could really punch up CSPAN's viewership. As Senator Windbag would get to the podium, the online naysayers could have a field day, and his time would be cut off after reaching a certain threshold.
This vision of our future where we control the outcome on the small screen from the audience voting isn't all that new. I think it was in the movie Lawnmower Man which posited something similar many years ago, although somewhat more grisly circumstances.
Of course, we could go in the completely opposite direction, as the great science fiction writer Isaac Asimov wrote in one of his stories called "Franchise," where the predictive powers of computers have gotten so good that only a single person needs to actually vote on election day. Maybe we should put both ideas to a vote.

QuoteSea, the life in a few words
Snobbery exists in all areas of life, not least literary criticism. By snobbery I mean, any method of judging someone or something whereby you latch on to one or two features about them/it, and use these to come to a definitive, immovable judgement. In intellectual matters, the snob will often take the external features of a work as a guide to its value.
~ Alain de Botton (December 20, 1969 - )

By setting out to provide visitors with one of the most beloved Christmas traditions, Anthony Gallo Nurseries has practically become a tradition in itself—the Christmas tree farm has spent more than a century decking homes with the holiday's decorative centerpiece. At the nursery, tree-seekers peruse a lineup of firs hand-picked from Gallo's tree farm, including Fraser firs, a modern-day favorite seen in many American homes including the White House, and Balsam firs, a classic choice known for filling spaces with their festive aroma. In addition to trees, the nursery offers mixed garlands and florist-designed wreaths sprinkled with colorful berries, handmade bows, and tiny cameras that stream footage to Santa's behavior-analysis department.
For more than 30 years, AA Christmas Trees has brought NYC a taste of the holiday spirit with a large selection of Balsam Firs. Customers to the Brooklyn location can enjoy the scent of newly cut trees, which arrive every other day to ensure freshness, and on weekends during the holiday season, the business offers free hot chocolate and candy canes to help make visits feel extra festive. Those who can't make it to the location can also send their ideal tree specifications, including height and skirt size, and the company can pick out an ideal specimen and have it delivered right to their door.
Beyond helping homes get ready for the holidays, AA Christmas Trees also donates trees to deck the halls of local police departments and fire houses.

Duncan Hines Amazing Glazes_'Hip Hop Cupcakes'
Producer/Director/Editor/Music_Josh Binder
Re-shoot: vimeo.com/18032541
An online commercial for Duncan Hines Amazing Glazes. This video was posted by Duncan Hines on their various sites. However, they had to pull it after a week due to viewer's comments that it was a racist ad. We had to re-shoot the commercial essentially to look the same, only this time both white and chocolate glazes were used on the cupcakes. Additionally, they requested that the mouths on the cakes have a different color and size. This gained so much attention even Jimmy Kimmel weighed in on the controversy on his show by taking the video and creating a parody version that was "racist."
People really overreacted to this. Our intentions of making a racist ad was clearly not the intent. Any similarities are purely coincidental. There is no deeper or underlying message in this ad. The message is quite simple: Amazing Glazes makes your desserts sing. Nothing more.

Surprise: Blue Jackets sign Vinny Prospal to one-year extension
Feb 8, 2012, 10:29 AM EST
When Vinny Prospal signed in Columbus over the summer it was viewed almost as an afterthought signing compared to getting Jeff Carter and James Wisniewski. Turns out it was a solid pickup for a young team and he's getting rewarded for it.
Columbus GM Scott Howson announced via Twitter that the Jackets have signed Prospal to a one-year contract extension. ESPN's Pierre LeBrun reports that the deal is worth the same $2.5 million he signed on for this season making it a solid deal for both sides. Aaron Portzline of Columbus Dispatch reports that the deal also has a no-trade clause. Prospal wants to stay in Columbus for the long haul.
Prospal has nine goals and 24 assists this season for the Jackets putting him second on the team in points behind Rick Nash. Prospal's savvy veteran ways have been one of the few bright spots for Columbus this season and the way he's blended in seamlessly gave the Jackets one less bump in the road to deal with.
Signing Prospal to this extension also more than likely takes him off the trade block for this year's deadline. Prospal was viewed to be a potential trade piece with a contract expiring at the end of the year. Columbus likely could've sent him to a contending team and gotten a reasonable return for him, but that won't be happening and besides, they might have their hands full already trying to deal Jeff Carter.
- tikkanen10 - Feb 8, 2012 at 5:23 PM
Hard-worker, good teammate. Kudos to Prospal, one of the game's good guys.

Mod Mod Mod My brother just had a graduation party and I always have so much fun hanging out with his friends. I was thinking that if I have a birthday party I would really want to invite them. A lot I have known since I was young and grew up with them so I am pretty close to them. A few I just am getting to know but they are all soo much fun. I am pretty sure that my family would make fun of me for inviting almost all boys. They are all older than me. Would it be weird inviting them to my party? Thanks so much for your time!
Hey chica, it's not weird at all! Just make sure you let your brother know ahead of time that you want to invite them. Hope your party is fab!

Mod Mod Mod I want to get tickets to a Jason Aldean concert at Blossom Music Center. I know someone who has the megaticket which gets you into all the concerts there. His birthday is on the same day as the concert. I wanted to surprise him by being at the concert for his birthday. My dad said he would take me to one of the concerts. But what if we pay the money to go and I don't see him? I will still enjoy the concert but I really want it to be a birthday surprise. My mom has a megaticket too and I am pretty sure she has seen him at every concert. If I am going to be there for his birthday I would want to hang out with him. But I will be with my dad and don't know if we would be hanging with him. Also he was on the football team and I have tons of pictures from the games. I started making collages with the pictures for the players. I would want to make him one too. But I wouldn't want to make him be stuck with it all night at the concert. What should I do? Thanks!
Hey chica, just remember to relax! What is meant to be will be. It's great that you want to do something nice for his bday, but you don't want to overwhelm him. Enjoy the concert and try to meet up with him. If you aren't able to, just give him his bday present the next time you see him and explain to him what the situation was. I'm sure he'll understand. Have fun!

yum! i make this today and my family and i loved it! i made the portions about twice as large, and it was a fairly heavy desert, but other than that it was delicious! it certainly didn't look as appealing as the one in the image, but i think that it tasted just as good- especially the chocolate sauce! use gardaneli 60% cacao chocolate chips in the chocolate sauce if you can get them, it makes the sauce absolutely delicious! thank you so much for this recipe, GL!

What are some ideas for having friends over... That DON'T involve eating or spending money (like shopping, movies, having lunch)??
Hey girlie,
You can definitely
watch movies and have lunch at your houses for free! And there's nothing wrong
with window shopping You could also ride bikes together, take a walk at your
local park or play a sport at your community center. If you want to stay at
home, you could try a dance or workout video or play some new board games. If
you're with your friends, you'll have fun no matter what the activity is
