I was excited to see your article, ms_gywn! I saw your name, and I smiled. :D It's amazing how things work out in the long run.

late reply, but thanks...I see no reason in hiding my journey and believe me, it was the best decision I made to come back home! no regret what so ever!

I just moved to the Biloxi, MS area and was able to meet the sisters of the New Orleans Alumni Chapter! It was wonderful & am so excited to be a member of their chapter! It has helped me SO MUCH in the move to have Sigmas so close to not feel so alone and bored! We are already starting to talk about what we are going to do for Convention and I love the activities planned!

I just moved to Louisiana! Maybe we'll meet each other soon! :D

Wonderful! Where are you in LA? Will you be joining the New Orleans chapter?

Hope to meet you soon! :D

I'm in Baton Rouge - we have an alumnae chapter in Baton Rouge, but it is a little bit of a mess and they haven't met in over a year, so I may be headed down to NO for the time being. It's only 45 mins. away.

Oh you should! I drive the 2 hours from Biloxi! They do a lot and have things planned every month. There seems to be a good mix of older/younger members. PM me if you'd like more information. The next get together is a brunch on Sept 26! :D

because of my timing and when i got initiated and badge, Saturday was the first time I got to wear my badge....man the feeling I got. It is such an honor to wear the indented triangle to me, I got a little teary eyed. Also it looks like I might be a delegate for Convention...not counting my chickens but that would be exciting as well :D

CAB
 

So I am going back to do some advising. I was just appointed as a CAB member for a chapter.

It will be definitely different working with a well established chapater versus a first NPC colony on campus.

Alpha Xi University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. Do to the distance I live from them I will just be doing Honor Council

can't tell everyone yet
 

I can't tell everyone yet since I have not been able to get a hold of my dad......I got engaged last Tuesday!

Congratulations!!!!! What an exciting thing to happen! Once you've told your family & friends, please indulge us and let us know how he proposed! (I love hearing engagement stories!)

*hums 'Pass it on'*

Best wishes, Sister!

Congratulations!! Have fun planning your wedding...it all passes by so fast!

YAY KSUViolet, M.Ed.!!! That's wonderful!

In other news, I got engaged too! Very exciting. Our first date was at the movie theaters, and so last night, since my family is in town, we all went to the movies.

Phil, my fiance, handed the ring to an usher and had him walk into the theater and ask if anyone lost a "little black box." Phil stood up and claimed it, then got down on one knee and popped the question! It was perfect. :)

First, Congrats Jocelyn!

Second, Sigmaceli, that is just too cute and romantic! I love how much effort he put into it to make it special and meaningful! Plus to have your family there - just very sweet. He's definitely a keeper - but I think you already knew that ;)

KSUViolet, M. Ed. - congratulations!
sigmaceli - best wishes!

too cute
 

Love it. Congrats sigmaceli!

Yay!! Congrats to everyone!! KSUViolet M.Ed. - job well done, and enjoy your new letters after your name. ;)

To both Cruise4fun and sigmaceli - congratulations on your engagements!! Have loads of fun planning, and wishing you and your respective fiances many years of happiness.

Cheers,
Laura

a lot of celebrations for sensational Sigmas!

Congrats to KSUViolet06 on your M. Ed (I'm used to writing MAED)

Yay for Sigma anniversaries! I'll be 5 years this Nov.

saw this on the facebook page!
soooo cute! seems like it would take some time/patience to get all the stones to lay correctly & then add water w/o messing them up!

GUESS WHAT!?!?!
I am officially a sister of Sigma Sigma Sigma :)

Beta Upsilon just initiated 6 new members tonight!

My mother-in-law got me wonderful purple and white pajama pants. I pointed out they were sigma colors, she said she knew...i guess she was paying attention the countless times I pointed it out in the past.

^^^^
"Like button?"

I got a purple & white & black coach wristlet from boyfriend's sister, and she also said that's what my boyfriend said when I told her they were my sorority colors.
Proud of the boy for remembering. She just knew I like purple :)

A Sigma blog?! Sign me up. I love our sorority. I really want to work as a consultant someday. And a volunteer. And anything else they'll let me do, haha.

psusue! i think you'd be great for something like that :) I'm behind you 100%

And I'm also excited about the blog! I think our chapter should have a blog. I've seen some done very nicely. I think there was a thread about blog vs webpage this summer. I'd like to see an integration of both.
