'novelty gifts'
i.e find one of those lil knick knacky store things that every town on the planet has, go in, look around and find sumthin she wont expect, but that she'll prolly like b/c of the novelty factor.
u can normally get pretty decent stuff on the cheap in places like that.
failing that, if shes getting driving lessons from ur folks, get her 'teh fluffeh dice' (those kind of things NEVER go outta fashion)

You can get two lap dances for that amount.
Since you're a ****ing Canadian you should have no problem finding a strip joint.

That's right, you're Canadians so you have to be different. Although it's still better than having to be 21 like in the US.

though it's easier to get into bars underage in the states isn't it?
or at least i got into a bar in Seattle when i was 19. and yes they DID check my drivers licence. *shrug*
maybe they let me in cause i was canadian :P (they also let my friend in who was 18 at the time)

The age to get into bars is a city ordinance. For example, in Macomb where I go to school you only have to be 20 to get into any bar in town, but they're not supposed to serve you until 21. A lot of college towns the age to get into bars is under 21. I have no idea what the deal with Seattle is, I'd imagine the age is 21 because it's a big city, but if they serve food they're allowed to let underaged people in as well.
Or maybe the bouncer just wanted to bend you over.

Women can bend other women over. Especially women who are bouncers for a bar. She probably assumed you were family because you're Canadian. You should have told her what a terrible TEASE you are.

Most off the nice bars, where there are  cocerts and stuff, are 20 or 24 in Norway, althought its 18 for beer. (They have 20 when they want to serve booze, and 24 when they dont want kids inside)
Althought, there are a few nice bars where you get in iff you know the right dudes.

bars and clubs and stuff here are all 18.
it would be very very strange being 20 and not being allowed to go into a bar.
strange country :/

A bottle of booze.
Or a pair of bottles.
That's what I'd like to have when I bump 'aighteen.
Or a half dozen bottles.
But it better be good booze. Wine (white, no dry stuff) or vodka (ViruValkea, 80%) recommended.
