Should I have a graduation party? Or buy an iPhone 5s?

I mean having a party will cost the same thing as buying an iPhone. I need a phone but I also feel guilty that I don't really want a graduation party should I have a party? Or an iPhone?

If you ver an iPhone you'll be able to use it for many years and is something productive for you and if you needed then you should get the phone instead. A graduation party will only last a few hours then everything will be forgotten, is not productive for your future, it will take a lot of your time and money to plan it and parties are mostly enjoyed by guest and not the host.

If you don't want a party don't throw your own party.

You're not the one whose supposed to anyway. Your parents are supposed to throw your graduation party, not you.

It sounds like you'd rather get the iPhone… So do that! If you don't feel like you need a graduation party, then don't waste your money and throw one.
Your party should be a reward anyway. You shouldnt have to pay for it, especially if you don't even want it.

I would get the phone because you need it for college and the next several years etc. You can always attend other parties.

Actually the choice is yours, what do you value more? The party would be nice, but once it is over it is over even though you will have the memories. A cell phone will last a long time and there's a lot that can be done with it such as staying in touch with your friends through texting and if there's an emergency you will have it.

  • Why is it called third party? Who are the first and second party? So like in iPhone, you are not allowed to use a third part charger because it is not supported but I was wondering if there's a first party or a second party charger that exists?
  • Why didn't I get a graduation gift? So I promoted from 8th grade, and I know I may sound selfish, or spoiled, but honestly i just don't know why. I see all these pictures on instagram showing themselves with flowers, new iphone, presents, money. All I got was good job… I don't understand, not even a card. For sixth grade promotion I didn't get anything either, just getting a good job. Did I do something wrong?
  • What should i ask for for 8th grade graduation? I already have a tablet/ipad, computer, xbox, wii. I want an iphone but i don't know if my parents will get me one. I wanted a trampoline but my mom said absolutely not. So any ideas?
  • What should I ask as a graduation gift? I just graduated from university and my father wants go buy me a graduation gift up to 500 dollars. There's nothing I really need right, except from money but he says he really wants to buy me a gift. I need a phone so I thought I'd ask for an iphone because I never had one, but a phone is something that I won't have in 10 years. What would be a good gift to ask that would last for life?
