Grad Presents!
 

Hey guys,
I was posed with the question of what I would like for a graduation present from my parents today. Honestly I have no idea, I dont want a watch or anything...I can't think of anything I need...but they told me to think on it or talk to my friends see what they are getting.

Here is the question: What did you get for a grad present?

Re: Grad Presents!
 

I got cash, so much cash. :D

Re: Grad Presents!
 

nice I was thinking about that i need some new clothes and such...

Re: Grad Presents!
 

Yeah, getting cash made things interesting... kinda because you're given a free pass to do whatever you want with it. I bought a PS2 and a bunch of games with mine and also plenty of other stuff.

Ask for a family picture or hand-sewn blanket with your name on it. Something special that will survive the test of time and hold sentimental value.

Re: Grad Presents!
 

my mom definitely doesn't sew...she doesn't cook either...and family portrait is next to none existent...my family is very...not close like that, i guess you could say we are based on experiences not the materials or souvenirs

Re: Grad Presents!
 

Maybe they could buy you some new equipment for your internet café

You're the youngest store owner I've ever met!

Re: Grad Presents!
 

actually its not my cafe, my boss opened it and knows next to nothing about computers he just likes video games so i run the store and he takes in profit. I wouldn't spend money on it they don't pay me enough as is.

Oooh, I know! Pick out your ultimate dream fantasy computer from a magazine or website or something and then have your parents pay for it!

Re: Grad Presents!
 

I got a silver bracelet and a really nice leather jacket. :D

Re: Grad Presents!
 

For my grad I got a handshake.

You're all babied.

For high school, I got a computer and some cash. And a nice fancy ring. Not a school ring mind you.

A bit too fancy, I've been asked if I'm married more times than I would like.

For college, I got gobs of cash which I used to buy games and to travel a bit during the summer.

I was contemplating asking for a trip, like all expenses paid cruise tickets for my girlfriend and I, but thats a little on the pricey side, i dont think my parents really want to spend that much on me...

Re: Grad Presents!
 

This was what I got 2 friends who got married last friday.

Filling the bottle was really fun and it turned out to be pretty as well.

Edit: not in this picture is a money bill. And handshakes/kisses. And my presence at the party.

Edit2: so maybe I should read threads before I post in them. I got... some practical stuff because I was going to live on my own.

My parents are paying for my class ring this time around.
