Graduation Day in all Russian schools is one of the most important holidays
in Russia. Every city has its own tradition of what they will do today, but the
most often scenario is surely a lot of alcohol and fountain swimming. They
drink heavily and smoke especially for this day. These are the uniforms they
would wear in a soviet schools, nobody wears the uniform since 90-s, but the
tradition to wear it on the graduation day still remains. They look like naughty
French maids. Many things that would be accepted as extreme in other countries
(I don't especially mean eastern countries, but in European Union even), here is
very usual and people are so used to that they don't give any attention.
