18th Birthday Ideas for Girls
Looking back, my 18th birthday was clearly too memorable to forget because I can’t remember a peep of what I did…probably had something to do with a long term relationship and watching movies all night. Which is cool too, that definitely is an option, but if I were to do it again I would have loved looking into ideas similar to what’s listed below! At the time I was much more lowkey in my way of celebrating, in high school, and I knew the next year I’d probably get to celebrate in Canada (don’t know if that happened). But with that said, ask me now and I’ll say I LOVE ANY opportunity to celebrate. Whether that be my own birthday or for family or a friend. I think celebrating is the best and brings all your loved ones together, joy, laughter, memories, and much more!
Just a couple of weeks ago, my cousin turned 18 years old and I couldn’t believe it (I guess being the older cousin that’s a normal reaction). Because of COVID restrictions and the family not getting together for celebrations yet, I sent a birthday Snapchat with my brother because a guy still needs his family on a special day!! Of course, we normally would have done more, but any love there is to give and express on someone’s birthday or your own, is appreciated. He is also away at college so with not having family or friends around, it was necessary to have our Snapchat cousin chat send the birthday love.
