Gee...way to make someone feel guilty for bitching about their graduation pen.

Our school went a little nuts on the memorabilia.. the old girls assocation gave us all a school pen which was handy, then at our grad mass we had these really nice candles with our names on them (i think we paid fr those tho...) and then at the dinner we got a champagne glass with the crest on it and a teaspoon with the crest (again). Cause we were on the student council we all got an address book and pen.. of course with school crest on both!

We got cream coloured roses aw (cos its school colour).... my friends from Ruse got toy sheep lol how cute!

Except it was funny, cos the sheep came in bags that were labeled with students names, and the teachers couldn't be BOTHERED to even give the right bags to the right students so they all ended up getting each others sheep and swapping tee hee

nope, not me. i go to a regular old public school, but they still give us gifts.

we didn't get anything, apart from maybe free lunch?
our gift to the school was a water pump for an overseas community (can't remember where though!)

whats the good of that? like, unless you press it, you cant keep it as a momento..the girls got a red rose each at the formal, but, yeah, as i said before, our proper gifts were the champagne glasses.

yeh i know, still a nice gesture though, better then nothing i guess

same..a yellow rose each is what we got...unless you count stealing balloons off the table during the dinner as a gift as well...

 

[blah says she]

We got a rose and a small teddy bear from the school and a spoon with the school's crest on it. Some girls got fish in a fishbowl from their roll call groups (different, but nice. No doubt they fish will be dead soon).

We gave the school a BBQ or at least, money towards getting a new one!
