From a young age, our lives are often intertwined with education. We go from preschool, to elementary school, middle school, high school and college and when graduation day comes around it is a huge milestone in our lives. It is a time to congratulate each other on our achievements and celebrate the end of an academic journey.
This isn’t something that everybody gets to experience in their lifetimes so it’s really special. It’s also a time to realise that life is going to be different. Even though people may promise to keep in touch, they might move on to other things such as a new job or further education. Graduation is a moment to spend with the people who have been on this journey with you, reminiscing about the wonderful memories and wishing each other luck for the future.
Typically, university degrees can be completed in 3-4 years depending on the course and if it is done full time or part time. However, it is becoming increasingly popular for students to take a lot longer to complete their studies. This is why it’s important to attend graduation because it signifies all the hard work that has been put into achieving a degree and it’s something that we should always be proud of.
Whether you’re celebrating with a big party, a small gathering or with just one person, make the day memorable by giving them a unique graduation gift. For example, instead of giving a traditional bouquet of flowers, decorate their car with streamers and balloons that they can take home. Adding a personalized message will show how much you care about them and it’ll make their day!
