Graduation

This is the day you leave high school with a diploma, and many gaping wounds and/or emotional pain/catharsis.
Wow, Tom! Congratulations on graduating from high school, isn't that a big relief?

Tom: Well, this wound from AP Chemistry will never go away, and I feel like crying like a little girl, knowing I don't have to put up with those fucking losers and that history teacher for the rest of my life *cries*

Graduation

Then comes college, when you become a freshman all over again, CONGRATS!

Graduation

The exact definition of Graduation is catch 22. Just a giant clusterfuck of emotions in which you don't know whether to be happy or sad. Nervous, or excited. Ugh. Graduation sucks.
Example: "I cried so much at my graduation, I was scared to be leaving behind everything I'd ever known for 12 years of my life. But at the same time, excited to be starting something new and adventurous."

graduation

1. A ceremony which celebrates your ability to sit in a small box for 12 years and not fall asleep too often.

2. A related ceremony which divides 4+ years of more advanced education and the crippling debt which follows.
"The only important thing about graduation is that you never have to see the people that pissed you off for the last 4 years ever again."

Portuguese Graduation

An article of affectation used primarily to denote the event in which a Portuguese youth with poor grades achieves a stable, labour-intensive, blue collar job with little to no income mobility or prospects for occupational advancement.

The term "Graduation" is bastardized here, as while the Atlantic Trout-fishing, lemon tart-eating Portuguese are generally a smart and industrious people, they have notoriously very little academic prowess or notable institutional credential.

Therefore, sporting a very low GPA and other under-average psychometric percentiles, a portuguese will be said to "Graduate" directly into the work force. This is the rough equivalent of a non-Portuguese achieving an academic certification as enumerated by a public institution, (i.e. high school or post-secondary), and being equipped to pursue lucrative, white-collar work.

Alt. A 'Portuguese diploma' or a Portuguese 'Bachelor of Honors.'
EXAMPLE 1:

Paula: "Oh vey! My Little Fabio is so grown up! He just dropped out of senior year at Meadowvale High to start brick-laying with local construction worker and drywalling 235!"

Luis: "That's my boy! I'm glad we invited everyone over for his Portuguese Graduation."

EXAMPLE 2:

Carlos: "Oh vey! I was looking at Lorena's student transcript the other day...
She has a GPA of 2.1 and wants to drop out of college to study cosmetics instead of Mechanical Engineering.

Neilla: "Yep, she's on track to becoming the loudest hair-stylist on the East Side after her Portuguese Graduation."

middle school graduation dance

a lame dance party. Mainly consists of a bunch of sluts grinding each other in the middle of the dance floor and a bunch of random, sweat-soaked dudes trying to grind sweet innocent dancing girls. Lots of people are making out in the corner and the people who can't dance decide that they should dance. The popular people stand in the same spot and take pictures of themselves and their friends, while the fat-asses position themselves at the food table. Not funn at all. You should have stayed home.
Alyssa: Hey guys! Do you want to go to the middle school graduation dance?!
Taylor: Nah it looks LAME.
Slutty Girl: C'mon bitches, I wana go!!!!
