What to do!?

A friend of mine and I want to hang out tomorrow, but we don't just want to hang around the house.

We've already done bowling and movies a million times and we're a little sick of both. Ice skating (which was our original idea) has been crap canned because they're not open on thursdays.

What would be some neat fun things to do when you're bored/really want to do something?

Edit: I should clarify that she's a German exchange student, and I don't want to bore her to tears. I kind of wanted to go out and do something.

    Well, if you are tying to get close to her you can cook something together. Go to a grocery store and pick out a dish you want to cook and cook it together.

    What's worse than a cold toilet seat? A warm toilet seat. There's only one way short of magic it could have gotten warm. At first, you're almost thankful it's warm, then you get to thinking... this is the result of another person's ass-warmth.

    Oh, I also forgot to mention that there will be several other of my friends hanging out also. SO yeah, we kind of all wanted to go out and do something fun and different.

    Pool Hall?

    Does anyone play guitar/bass? Head to a guitarcenter and play around.

    Depends what's around. Are you in a city? She might enjoy seeing a basketball or hockey game if she's never done such a thing before. Maybe a museum?

    If there aren't any of the above convenient, how about:

    Karaoke? Live music? A hike? Field party?

    All of the other suggestions in this thread also sound good.

    Do something easy and cheap. Also, go for something physical. I'm not a doctor, but I know I feel like I'm having more fun when it is a physical activity.

    Ultimate Frisbee is a great idea. Frisbee Golf is good, though you would have to buy a Frisbee for each player.

    Here are some more ideas:
    Hide and Sneak in a park/forest
    Capture the Flag
    Dodge ball
    Kick ball

    Basically, do something that is original. People (usually) like trying new things.

    Any paintball fields around your area?

    It can get a little expensive, but I haven't heard anyone decline an invitation to shoot up all their friends and have them eat paint.

    It's more fun than I made it sound. :wink:
