Cool ways to celebrate the bond between friends- friendship day

Since how long have you been friends with your BFF? Be it your kindergarten friendship or its someone you have just met; some people give the vibe that they are here to stay. And those are the ones we call “best friends forever.” A best friend is someone who will pick you up when you fall (only after a good laugh). They will push you to take all the wrong decisions but will also have your back when it all goes wrong. Remember who was there when you were when you got scolded in front of the whole class, who pushed you to tell your crush what you feel for them? ( though it might not have gone as planned) but it was always your best friend.  

 We don’t get a choice to choose our blood relations, and I thank god for that else I would have messed up, but there are relations that we build on our own, and that is friendship. Since this relation is so important for humans, thus we dedicate a full day in the name of this bond. Yes, I’m talking about friendship day. Though it's a western trend, this trend spread like fire, and now, everyone is aware that friendship day is celebrated on the first Sunday of August. 

Since you literally don’t choose your friends (taking destiny into consideration), but you totally have a choice to decide how you want to appreciate this relationship on this friendship day. It’s your time to show your partners in crime how they have made your entire life worth living.  Have you already planned how you want to celebrate this significant day? If not, here are some ideas that I have been doing over the years, and I hope you find some inspiration to rock this year. 

Pictures for memories

I know it is a digital era, and with all the selfie camera phone so handy, nobody actually has the patience to maintain albums, but that is the fun part. In the world full of selfies, prepare a collage of all the pictures you people have that showcase your friendship. Even if you have photographs in your cell phone, get them developed, because trust me it is much better. If you can risk your life, then try making a collage of funny and ugly pictures of your best friend. 

Sleepover at a friends place

When we are kids, we are not allowed to sleepover at a friend's house; when we grow up, we don’t get the time for it. So, this friendship day, plan a sleepover at their place. These types of plans strengthen the bond. If you feel emotionally charged, then you can even get an online cake delivery in Noida and flower delivery just to mark the start of this significant day. 

Movie night out

Even if you have existing plans, a movie never hurts anyone. Ask your friends whenever they are free and take them to movies. I know, no one is actually watching the movie when friends are around. Even if you want to watch it carefully, it is simply not possible. But still, it’s a nice way to chill, and regardless of whatever genre you choose, it is going to be fun with those monsters around.

Camping out

From coming out to play to coming online, we all grew up. And as we grow up, the time barrier kicks the quality time away that you used to spend with your friends. Can you recall the last time you went on camping with your friends? Even if your answer is ‘recently,’ then also you leave no chance to go again because there are not enough reasons to go out on trips with friends. Just already start shortlisting all your favourite outdoor sports and also keep in mind what games your company will enjoy. 

Recollect old memories

Can you think of a better way to celebrate friendship day other than remembering how you people became friends in the first place? I’m sure it must be a story worth remembering. Recall what all you people have been through together since all these years. Appreciate how they always had your back. Indulge in heart to heart talk with your buddies and catch with each other’s life whatever you have been missing while struggling around in your personal life. This is the best way to rewind and relive the most cherished moments on a day like this. 

Here are some practical yet cool ideas to make your friends feel special on this significant day. I would just like to add that if you want to keep it simple,remember that even the simplest idea like send flowers to Chandigarh and it will work the same because its the emotions that count.
