I hope anyone who is graduating this week or last week have or had a good graduation.

I feel so old, I'll be 18 August 26..yet it felt like yesterday when I was in elementary school. I feel sorta sad that it is ending..the drama, the bullying, the studies, the exams, the ACT/SAT, study hall, lunch time, wierd teachers, but most of all my friends( I'll miss you guys ;_; ) but it was all worth it I tell you.<3

Congratulations!

Now you get some choice in where you get to spend all day with irritating people you have nothing in common with at all.

Congratulations Chesire Kat!!

My daughter is graduating too. I am to throw her a party on June 6th. I have no idea what I am doing. I've never been to a graduation party (always just send a check) Do you have any suggestions on what makes a good grad party? Or anyone else? It's going to be open house style from 4 to 8 pm. How do I entertain people for 4 hours? Should I just assume that they will mull about entertaining themselves? And food!?! Yikes! This is gonna keep me up for days.

Thanks everyone<3. As for the graduation party, people usually have BBQ and swim parties at their houses.

The two ones I went to last year, the family and guest brought food they cooked or bought and arranged it on these tables in the kitchen and we just spend time swimming and talking, just entertaining ourselves.

The other one was at a park and was a BBQ, we played volley ball and basket ball.

My daughters grad was great! I cried like the big baby that I am. One of the alum speakers said...

10 percent of your life is what happens to you,
and 90 percent is what you do about it.

I thought that was pretty cool. So what are you plans for after?
