You've spent many years in college and worked hard all along the way. With graduation nearing, this is a perfect time to treat yourself and get your own college class ring. Class rings normally have your college and your degree. Even if you attend school through online means or you are home schooled, a jeweler has made a ring for you (or they can make one special just for you).

Along with specifying the metal and the stone and year, now you can also select a special effect for your stone. Stone options add a little more to the cost of the ring. Depending on the jeweler, here's some of the stone effects you can pick from:

-- Astralight stone effect - Astralight is a special option underneath the stone and it gives the stone the illusion of a rainbow beneath it. Astralight can be done on either smooth or faceted stones.

-- Sundance stone effect - The Sundance effect also can be done on either smooth or faceted stones. It is a special effect under the stone that gives the illusion of rays beneath the stone.

-- Encrusting effect - This is where an embedded yellow gold symbol or yellow gold letter is placed into the top of your stone. Encrustings look better on darker stones and are available on smooth stones. This effect should not be combined with either the Sundance or Astralight stone options.

-- Protected emblem effect - This is a symbol or letter design located underneath the stone. This effect works better with the lighter colored stones and is available on smooth stones.

Class rings are also very popular as simple fashion accessories, even for people who have not attended a particular school or college.

Well, he's not really my boyfriend I just tell my friend that because he is the most popular boy in school. He has the most amazing Zac Efron poster collection and super soft hands. Anyway, he says he lost his class ring in me and I'm not sure how to know if I have it or not.

PS, is it weird that he calls me Bobby and tells me to tackle him when the lights are out?
