    :yahoo: So...after 5 long years I will finally be graduating college next month!:yahoo: I've been thinking about what I'd like as a graduation present, and my mom has made it pretty clear that I have three options: cold hard cash, a new handbag (:graucho: ), or diamonds (as in...a diamond bracelet or new studs!) I am so, so so so torn! What do you ladies think??

    I'd vote either money that you can put away and save for something else OR go for diamonds that you'll have for a lifetime. A pair of studs would be a great classic.

    I would go for the diamonds because then ever time you wear them you will remember how you got them. It'll have great sentimental value in the future. IMO;)

    Fight for those diamonds, girl! Demand at least 1 karat per ear! LOL

    Cold hard cash! I remember how expensive it was to move out and go flatting for the first time.

    But my mum got me a Tag watch when I graduated. I still love it and wear it everyday (feel naked without it!), and it's something I would never have bought myself.

    Andrea-- LOL we are both graduating soon! I am actually graduating Friday!!! I can't wait!!!! I asked for $$$. I think that it is more fun to get money and then make a day of shopping and spending it all. Here is what I am planning to do with some of it:

    Louis Vuitton Speedy 35
    Chanel bag...haven't decided which one yet...I need to go to NM and take a look.
    Gucci bag...haven't decided which one yet, either.
    Down payment on either an '07 Escalade or CTS...LOL I need something to haul my bags around in! :P What about yourself? I can't wait!!!! Oh and congrats on graduating...what it your degree in?

    Get the cash. You can save it and do whatever you want with it.

    I vote for cash too. You can always buy the bags with it if you change your mind.

    i voted for cash but diamond studs would be nice too...and have great sentimental value. i actually would probably ask for the studs myself as long as they would be good sized (1.5 ctw or higher). you'll get enough cash from other people. :smile:

    cash or also the diamonds...they'll remind you of when you got the degree!
