One of my B school mates is getting engaged this Sunday and she has to apply for leave 'cos we have classes even on a Sunday! And we were having a few laughs on what to do. 'Cos our college people are as excited as her parents I guess. Our director kept howering around my friend and her would be inlaws when they came to the campus,officially for some function. He seemed to think that he had to do the Khatthirdaari, after all he is on the girl's side! And then so are our profs!!
And that is when this letter came out! I thought it was pretty juvenille but by then I had already decided to post it here!!

Respected Chairperson,
PGDBA.

To Be Engaged Fixed Girl.
