Party Time: Party Themes

Movies about college life and its parties have created a stereotype most high schoolers can’t wait to experience.

When you finally get here and get invited to your first college party you find—it’s all a lie. You know nobody, the music is barely audible, and all that’s left to drink is the last of the Hunch Punch, which looks like it was ACTUALLY made in a used trash can.

But then you go to a few more parties and you realize some are indeed like the movies; you quickly learn which ones to go to and which ones to avoid. Now it’s your turn to host a party and you KNOW it’s going to be the stuff legends are made of—but you haven’t come up with a theme. No worries! Here’s a list of themes for a party, whether you want wild and crazy or laid-back and relaxed.
