letters from your boyfriend

when i was in school, getting lavaliered was like going steady-like wearing your high school sweethearts senior class ring. getting pinned was like being "promised", or pre-engaged. we used to do candlelights-the girl would leave an anonymous note on a sisters desk asking her to make a sign saying"candlelight tonite after supper" and then after supper the president would start the candle pass by saying" lavaliered", we would sing a song as the candle was passed and if the girl was lavaliered when the candle came to her she would blow it out, if it was not blown out by the time it got back to the prez she would say "pinned" and around it would go again, if not blown our on that pass, the prez would say"engaged" and around it would go . it was exciting.
if they were pinned or engaged, sometimes the fraternity would come over and serenade her later that same evening.
