grad gift ideas

monogrammed sun hat, canvas boat tote, monogrammed tervis tumbler, initial bracelet, geometric thank you notes, gold foil thank you notes

it's officially been 1 year since i graudated from college. it's flown by! it's been so much fun to watch another round of graduates this year - i remember being in their shoes, and i remember that feeling of excitement (and kinda dread?) as may rolled around. it's such a rush, and it's over before you know it - but then what?! never fear, i'm trying to help y'all out with my post grad tales series. but as far as what to buy for your fellow graduates? that's another story.

whether you're looking for gifts for your peers, or you have a family member/friend graduating, swoozie's has the hookup on personalized, price-appropriate & adorable gifts. picking out fun, personalized summer items will always be a winner in my book - this floppy hat, canvas tote for beach trips or monogrammed tumbler make anyone feel special. grads are often provided thank you notes if they purchased a graduation package with the school, and those are great and all, but why not spruce up the process with some colorful stationary instead?

congratulations to all the 2014 graduates!

i'm a university of alabama graduate!

just stopping in to say that i've finished a wonderful chapter of my life. my four years at the university of alabama have changed me forever; i truly couldn't have asked for a better college experience. i am so grateful for my family and friends for supporting me along the way. i learned so much about myself, what i want out of life and what it takes to be happy. oh, and a lot about advertising, too! the communications department at here is fantastic!

there are lots of changes soon. i'm not sure at this exact moment where i'll be once my apartment lease is up in july, but i'm planning big things and i absolutely can't wait for the future. i think i want to stick around in alabama for another few years, and then make my way somewhere new across the country. it's strange to think that this is really the moment where my life begins, where i can make the decision to go anywhere and do anything. this college town has a special place in my heart - thank you tuscaloosa. i'll always love you. psssh, i'm already planning to come back for a football game in september - can't keep me away for long!
