Gifts For Your High School Grad - a list by chad

About this list:

My graduation presents consisted of one thing, boat loads of cash. A month later, I managed to blow straight through it, entirely on booze and fast food. So, take this advice, just because they're high school graduates, it doesn't mean they're fiscally responsible. Do your graduate favor and and actually by them real, tangible things. Here's what I suggest.

The Graduate

First to recommend

11 people recommended this item

Description

Well, you can't beat the soundtrack - and the rest...it's just sheer movie making genius. This is a film I have to watch at least once a year - it's like therapy (and great fashion inspiration!) The Graduate is another timeless classic - it's American satire, 20's angst, and a twisted love story wrapped into a perfectly executed film, with themes as true today as they were back then.

Apple iPod Shuffle with VoiceOver

4 people recommended this item

Description

The newest iPod shuffle needs no introduction. It's smaller, sleeker and even more awesome. The biggest upgrade is a voice over telling you what song is playing.

It's pretty simple, actually. I really need a new backpack. Mainly because I'm using the one from high school and, secondly, because this one is really awesome.

Novelty Beer Helmet

Description

The one helmet that needs no explanation. The double beer novelty helmet may not be a necessity, but it's absolutely an accent that any college student could appreciate.

Oh, the Places You'll Go! by Dr. Seuss

Description

Wanting to give the most cliche graduation gift around? This is it. I don't mean that in a bad way. I mean, it's Dr. freakin-Seauss. So, it's naturally awesome -- just also happens to be cliche.

Klean Kanteen: 18oz water bottle

First to recommend

Description

You can get these in about any size you'd please. However, I opted for the 18oz because it's small enough to easily carry around, but also holds plenty of water.

Xbox 360

55 people recommended this item

Description

No college freshman should enter into a university without being fully prepared. These days, "fully prepared" means being armed with a suitable gaming device. And don't kid yourself, the Xbox 360 is the ultimate college gaming device. Do yourself a favor and buy this for your new graduate, before they end up selling plasma for a gaming fix -- college is stressful.
