Anu wanted to surprise Priya with a graduation party to congragulate her on her recent success. The party was planned in discussion with only me and no one else knew anything about the party. It was fun sneaking right under Priya's eyes to Anu's house to decorate for the party. The alibi I used was that I had to go to Ranga's to get my car fixed. Well I dont think that alibi is going to work anymore. On the whole the party was fun with full of surprises for Priya. We thank Anu for all her hard work in planning the party and it was so sweet of her to have thought of having a surprise party for Priya's Graduation. The party was @ Anu's place. We had invited Harsha, chitra and Ashok also to the party.

Congratulations Priya on your wonderful achievement.
