Not everyone can or has to subscribe to the senior's idea of fun. For them it is ragging and is mentally tortorous.<br /><br />And in today's world entertainment is not so rare that senior students have to use freshers to entertain themselves!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273139713770751485.post-30944791485923717952011-07-21T02:07:24.472+05:302011-07-21T02:07:24.472+05:30Really liked all the suggestions in the article.
