Graduation

I would like to write about fishing and the outdoors, but I haven't been able to do much lately. I have been extremely busy with graduation parties and other things that it has been almost impossible to do any fishing. Grad parties are very important to go to because they wrap up your high school career. My parents and I have been getting ready for mine now for about three weeks. There is a great deal of planning that had to be done. Luckily it isn't until next weekend so we don't have to stress about it much quite yet. The parties I have been to have been very nicely set up. A typical set up goes like this. It is usually hosted in a garage. There are a lot of tables and chairs set up with maybe a tent outside for extra seating. There is a lot of food at every one. Usually a main course and a number of sides are presented. Guest books, pictures, and achievements are a must. It will be the same at my grad party, but a few changes. We are having it in the back garage. There will be a tent outside for extra seating. We have about 10 tables for people to sit at. The food is going to be from Zio Johno's and other places. There will also be ladder ball, volleyball, basketball, and a big bonfire. Grad parties are a lot of work to get ready for. We worked for about 3 or 4 hours today cleaning out the garage and setting things up. It can get very tyring especailly when you are trying to get to other peoples' parties in between. Next weekend is when the majority of parties are it. It will be very stressful, but fun at the same time. I'm very excited for not only the parties but the actual graduation itself is right around the corner. Hopefully everything will go smoothly, and everyone has a good time.
