Summary
Thanking Ivory for his gift of a George Harrison record, and saying she loves it even though she has only been able to listen to it twice because she has been studying for her Higher Secondary exams, "which start in another 12 hours"; insisting that "I just have [underlined] to get above 65% to get into Architecture in Delhi. Papa says he'll refuse to get me into the School with less than 65%"; also thanking him for "the New York directory cover"; telling him that after her exams she plans to re-arrange her room to showcase "the George Harrison blow-up as well as the N.Y.T.D.cover"; noting that "Bombay Talkie" will open in Delhi at the end of April and hoping she can get in to see the movie [being underage].
