Birthday gift ideas for best friend?

Krystal T

My friends birthday is in April and I'm not sure of what to get her. I live in New York and she lives in Canada and I'm going to visit her on her birthday. I'm really good on the computer so I'm thinking about making her something on the computer or a scrapbook. I'm not sure, I'm not very creative. So please help with ideas! Thanks so much :D

Answer
What i did for my best friends birthday is go on iMovie (it's on apple macs) and make a movie with loads of pictures of us, and short clips with dimmed music in the background, and a VoiceOver saying happy birthday and you having some great memories etc... It looks really professional. Then you can burn it onto a disk and if you want to go that extra step further then you could design the front of the CD and the case it's in:) it sounds tricky but it's really easy and I'm only 14!! Hope I helped!!:))

Birthday gift ideas for my 19 year old boyfriend?!?

forever*

We have been together over two years now, and I have a budget of $100-150. I don't want mushy ideas, because I already have that planned. lol. I want to get him something to make him say "WOW!" Something that is masculine, but breath-taking. His birthday is in 11 days! Helpp!?!

Answer
Sports Gear

If sports rule your boyfriend's life, you might want to find out what his favorite sports and teams are and get him something that fits into that category. For example, your guy might be really into baseball, so getting him a baseball hat might seem like a great idea, but if he's a Boston Red Sox fan, you want to make sure you don't buy him a New York Yankees hat. Or, if he's a hockey fan, getting a basketball jersey might not be the best idea. Look at what he wears, or talk to his friends about his sports likes and dislikes.
Video Games

If your boyfriend is a gamer, there might be no better gift than a video game he doesn't have yet. If there is a big release coming up near his birthday, reserve the game early and let him know (this way, he doesn't buy it himself). Or, if you know there is a big release in the future, reserve it on his birthday, and then give him the gift when the game comes out. If money is an object, many game systems come with a "Best Of" series, which usually runs about $20 cheaper than normally priced video games. These games are a bit older, but they are a good way to get a recent game for a low price.
Music Lovers

If he is into music and always seems to be on his MP3 player, you may want to focus on this aspect of his personality. Think about purchasing some nice headphones for him to listen to his music on. There are some nice sound-dampening earphones that won't cost too much. If he has a favorite style of music, put together a mix CD with songs you think he might like. If you are doing this, try to put some songs he might not have heard or bands he doesn't normally listen to.

How to wrap a gift creatively for a sports fanatic?

birthday gift ideas new york image

~ Jamie ~

My husband is a huge football and hockey fan. I bought him a gift in preparation for the upcoming season and need some ideas on how to wrap in a creative way. It is in a rectangular box, so it should be easy to wrap but I wanted to make it extra special. Any ideas?

Answer
Wrap it in the sports pages of a newspaper, with colors if possible.
If he watches these sports on tv and has a favorite snack food, tie the package with string but add little paper cards (folded up notes) with writing on them saying things like they do in the Monopoly game.
Kiss your wife to get a bag of Nacho Chips Free
Advance one step to get a can of Soda
Get out of (put in a chore he does here) Free
If you belong to Netflix
look up some sports documentaries and
put them on your queue, then,
attach another note saying something like
Watch The New York Rangers next Friday night
or
See SuperBowl Highlights Free on Saturday afternoon.
If you do this last part you have to remember that
you have to move these sports documentaries to
the top of the queue so you'll have them ready on
the day he wants.
Have fun on the birthday.

Answer
Gay or not gay I think the best gift I ever received was a men’s personal manicure kit. I travel a lot and when you’re on the road it’s nice to be able to fix your nails at whim. The one I received was leather bound in a locking case with suede interior. It carried small gold scissors, nail cutters, a file, and tweezers. I’m sure you can get different ones that have more options but in all honesty, when it was given to me I kind of fluffed it off. But after using it a couple times I truly came to love it and it always reminds me of my roommate who gave it to me… Thanks Nancy!

What are some gift ideas from around the world?

Q. One of my best friends birthday is coming up within the next couple of weeks. I have always given her lame presents, but this year I want to go all out. My theme is "around the world". I would like to give her gifts that represent countries from around the world. For example, Swedish fish from "Sweden". If you have ANY ideas please let me know! The gift doesn't necessarily have to have a literal correlation with the country, cute & sassy ideas are welcome and encouraged:)

Is it appropriate to send my Jehova Witness friend a birthday card?

Q. I have their birthdays and anniversary dates. Im not wanting to send gifts. Just a card. Is that appropriate?

A. No....but anniversary dates is Ok...

Why??

Do Bible references to birthday celebrations put them in a favorable light? The Bible makes only two references to such celebrations:

Gen. 40:20-22: “Now on the third day it turned out to be Pharaoh’s birthday, and he proceeded to make a feast . . . Accordingly he returned the chief of the cupbearers to his post of cupbearer . . . But the chief of the bakers he hung up.”

Matt. 14:6-10: “When Herod’s birthday was being celebrated the daughter of Herodias danced at it and pleased Herod so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. Then she, under her mother’s coaching, said: ‘Give me here upon a platter the head of John the Baptist.’ . . . He sent and had John beheaded in the prison.”

Everything that is in the Bible is there for a reason. (2 Tim. 3:16, 17) Jehovah’s Witnesses take note that God’s Word reports unfavorably about birthday celebrations and so shun these.

How did early Christians and Jews of Bible times view birthday celebrations?

“The notion of a birthday festival was far from the ideas of the Christians of this period in general.”—The History of the Christian Religion and Church, During the Three First Centuries (New York, 1848), Augustus Neander (translated by Henry John Rose), p. 190.

“The later Hebrews looked on the celebration of birthdays as a part of idolatrous worship, a view which would be abundantly confirmed by what they saw of the common observances associated with these days.”—The Imperial Bible-Dictionary (London, 1874), edited by Patrick Fairbairn, Vol. I, p. 225

What is a good fundraising idea for a personal trip?

Q. I am trying to go on a leadership trip with my school's gifted program to Columbia University this summer. It cost around $1600 and is a 6 day trip in New York City. I just need some ideas that my friend and I can use to raise that money.

A. Grocery bagging, candy selling, gift wrap sell, and gift wrapping holiday gifts, birthday gifts,, car wash, detail car, house cleaning, cooking, babysitting, leaf raking, snow shovel, personal shopper,, chauffeur, dog walker, pet sitter, house sitter, tutor, senior companion, errand runner, fruit and nut picker, usher at local theatre.

You could call around and see who locally sponsors scholarships, and funds for academic support. Churches are good too.

And lastly .....set up a spot in a ladies room with a designer fragrance, mints, gum, kleenex, and stuff.... if a club will allow. Don't forget to take all the paper towels and make us pay for free stuff lol.

Seriously good luck on your job search, and continue to stay focused in school.

Q. My boyfriend and I have been together for about 4 months but we are very serious about "us". He's gotten me really good gifts for my birthday and Christmas and I don't wanna look bad giving him a sucky Valentine's gift. He loves Baseball & Batman if that helps for any good ideas.
