Q: I'm turning 14 and lately I haven't been that social. It's been a real boring summer. (almost depressing) What should I do for my birthday. I usually spend it with family. All i can think of for presents is video games. Maybe some other advice.

A: Hey, just ask your parents for money so you can go buy some clothes or have them drive you and some friends to a theme park. Or have a party. Since it's summer, have your parents drive you and some friends to the beach...if you live close enough. Last week I went to the beach with a few friends. It was so cool. We went boogie bording and messed around in the water. I got swept away by a wave though lol. when it got dark we had a fire going and made smores and hot dogs. Awesome memories =D. Or just think of what you would like to do. include some of your friends.
