<p>it’s kind of a big deal where I live but more of a we have graduation parties…most of them are open house types but since most seniors at my school show up each day in Acuras w/ the occasional Mercedes thrown in, I’m not sure how much not getting another car matters…
My parents are inviting a few friends to attend the ceremony but I doubt I’m throwing a party. Honestly my parents were more thrilled that I got into my first choice college (and promised to take the family out for dinner… eventually) there was never any consideration that I wouldn’t graduate HS, so they’re mostly worried that I’d feel left out if “everyone” else threw a huge party when they offered.</p>
