A girl, generally a young adolescent, who will go to a public place. The girl, having limited social activity without parental supervision, will treat the excursion like an adventure, acting in ways that may seem funny to her group, yet annoying to other patrons of the establishment. The girl will generally also take pictures, both to remember the experience and prove to her friends that she actually, in fact, did go out without parents. And to put them on the myspace. You can't forget the Myspace.
Look at those Red Robin girls. This must be their first time allowed out without parents. I wonder what time the minivan will be there to pick them up. Let's drive over to the movie theatre and see that R-rated movie.

Get the rockin cool mug.an amazingly wonderful woman. capable of handling anything that comes her way with grace. knowledgeable in a number of areas, and intelligent enough to acquiesce when the subject matter is out of her realm. unfortunately, she is also not sure of herself, and whenever a compliment is received or a talent acknowledged, she assumes the person conferring is merely being generous.
