Luckily I had really nice French friends who understood that it was an important birthday for Americans, and they threw me a big party (with lots of drinks) in my apartment! It was a lot of fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584918 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:41:27 +0000 Mrs. Bee 584918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Flew to Vegas with a close friend, stayed at a suite in the Venetian (one of the new hotels at the time), gambled, drank, and had a blast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584913 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:40:44 +0000 meredithNYC 584913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My family planned a trip to Florida and so I spent the week getting embarrassingly drunk with my friend while staying in a condo with my parents. Awesome, right? I can't even believe how out of control we were, in retrospect. And now I finally understand why my mom was concerned - lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584895 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:37:54 +0000 MrsRcCar 584895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH, my mom, my aunt, my BFF, and I all went up to Mackinac Island and the Upper Penisula of Michigan. We spent my birthday on Mackinac Island it was awesome. I didn't drink at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584886 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:36:14 +0000 mrs. wagon 584886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had my first drink ever! Then went to a bar and tried all kinds of drinks. I probably had 6 drinks over the course of the night and didn't get drunk! </p> <p>Oh I also picked up a guy. Lol! I smiled at him from across the bar for hours before he got up the nerve to come over! And no, it wasn't Wagon Sr.. Hehe </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584885 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:36:04 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 584885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a Stoner when I was 21 so I got high... Not proud but that's what I did. This last weekend we went out for my 28th birthday, we threw it down like I was 21 again. I had never been drunk before, just tipsy. well I ended up drunk. If I would have had anymore &amp; I would have been stupid drunk. NEVER EVER AGAIN! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584858 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:33:21 +0000 KissMeCait 584858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH (then BF) took me out for dinner where I ordered my first legal cocktail. I had to ask the waiter to card me since he wasn't going to. The next day a few friends and I went bar hopping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584848 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:32:32 +0000 Beebug 584848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm Canadian, so 19 was one thing, but I was living and working in the US for my 21st (and was 21 on the 21st, too!) so had a very fun night out at a bar!</p> <p>I remember my family sent my flowers and I cried, and the people I worked for treated me to dinner that night too, it was a great bday!</p> <p>6 years ago today, lol :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584827 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:30:41 +0000 heffalump 584827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Went to Vegas. With my parents, their friends, and sister. I'm not a big drinker or partier, I just had a couple of drinks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584812 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:29:08 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 584812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Clubbing with my girlfriends and my friend bought me the best tasting strawberry chiffon layer cake. Either the day after or day before I went out to dinner with my college boyfriend who was a real jerk, my girlfriends went to the same restaurant that night just in case I wanted to leave without him...such sweeties. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584784 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:25:02 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 584784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went on a bar crawl with one of my closest friends - we share a birthday. Plus my boyfriend at the time (now my DH :) ) came in town to surprise me and join us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584782 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:24:52 +0000 Bao 584782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went bar hopping just around home...nothing special really. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-do-for-your-21st-birthday#post-584773 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 20:22:54 +0000 lovehoneybee 584773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some of my friends took me out for Indian, then to a bar where they knew I'd be carded. In the bathroom someone offered me a line of coke off the back of a toilet (I declined, I'm really weird about putting things up my nose! Plus, eww!). A few days later a friend (who would introduce me to DH 6 months later) took me to see a They Might Be Giants show. </p>
