    So most of you sat around for 12 years pushing a pencil or pen being taught to think sitting down....only to find there aren't to many people that will pay you for sitting down and thinking.
    So what do you get, or have you gotten already,.............. for a graduation present? :)


    peace and sunshine,
    Honor

    when I graduated three years ago
    leopard print luggage with a laptop hidden inside :D my parents had joked for -months- about getting me luggage
    (funny since I moved out 1 1/2 months later by choice)
    oh, and a nice dinner with my dad and grandma :D yay!

    I received around $100 from my parents, and there might be more coming, but I'm not certain.

    I was really lucky ... The cash got me the car that got me to all the amazing places I have been ...

    I went to Key West, Montreal, Wisconson ... and ALOT of other places. I seriously put over 80,000 miles on that car in two years ... I could not have asked for anything more amazing. The memories will last me my entire lifetime. :)

    I got a digital camera in 2003, which is now defunct.

    I'm getting a trip to Europe next year for getting my Bachelor's
