Part 2: Party to the People…
Sometimes it’s easy to come up with an event to go to – you heard that your fave band is coming to town on the radio … or you follow your sports teams like a BOSS. Other times you just have a free weekend and want to plan an outing to celebrate. Who better to take along than a few great friends – it’s a party!
If your plan involves more than one or two people, it can take a surprising amount of time just to connect to see if they want ‘in’. You need to keep up to date on your social circle to figure out who likes what, who’s free, who best to invite (nothing like the wrong mix of friends to turn a great day into a series of awkward moments). Once that’s decided you could wait to catch them in person; call and hope it doesn’t turn into a game of “tag, you’re it!”; or send out a group email, text message, Evite or post an event on Facebook tagging each one (and hoping so-and-so doesn’t find out and get offended that THEY didn’t get invited – oops!).
The best experiences are shared experiences …so get out there… grab a few friends and make some awesome memories!
