I just got home from work and I am thrilled. Ya got me Farklempt ovah heah! http://smilies.networkessence.net/s/cwm/cwm/eek2.gifhttp://smilies.crowd9.com/otn/love/deg.gif
Sistermadly told it well...except she didn't tell y'all I was more nervous than a hooker in church!http://www.smilies.okipages.com/s/co...ackeye/lol.gif
I talked a mile a minute...the last time I talked that fast was saying the vows at our wedding...ya gotta see the video...I was like damn slow down!

I was also saying a silent mantra "Please don't let me F up!"

So we stopped by my place and then headed to Vancouver. She said she had something to email me and then asked if I had a printer...our printer is a POS. Then she said she will give it to me at her house.

So we stopped by the corner store in her 'hood and then headed to her place. I had no idea she was http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/mischief.gif
Apparently her DH (aka Mistermadly) knew all about it.
She gives me these papers and is like "fill it out". Ok I start and was like "huh"?
Sistermadly says, "You don't seem excited". I am shaking like a leaf and wondering WTF? :confused:
It was like "Why should I be happy? It is not a bid--yet"

I am surprised she did not up and bitchslap me! http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/fish1.gif

It was like HELLO!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

Yes I have been told that I can be ditzy and it sure as hell came out!

It ain't over till the fat lady sings...
 

IMO, I know the phone call with the invite is just a formality but as I always said...it ain't over till the fat lady sings...

And I am fixing to BELLOW http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/Juul_Bauer.gif http://superbabies.homestead.com/fil...cingbanana.gif

Honey, it's OVER. You're going to be initiated - the fat lady is singing her ta-tas off!

I got a call from the President of the Alum Chapter! She says "You know why I am calling don't you?"
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh...back to the catatonic state!

I am officially giving you a bid and welcoming you to Alpha Phi!
We talked for a while and girlfriend did NOT waste any time. She is ready to hit the ground running and has already called the head office

I have no patience but it was SO worth the wait. I can NOT thank you all enough for cheering for me on, letting me bitch and holding my hand through the process. You have no idea how much it means to me. http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/grouphug.gif

I gotta thank GC because if it had not been for this site, I would have not known about AI.

The biggest hug http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/hugs.gif bows http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/bow.gif and props http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/yourock.gif go to Sistermadly. Her friendship has been invaluable and she was willing to go to bat for me and believe in me when I had times I didn't believe in myself.

Hugs to you all!

Congratulations Jill! What a great story! And two thumbs up to Sistermadly for being such a devoted & determined friend! :)



Now someone PUH-LEEZ tell this old woman what the hell is the Axl Rose dance????????????:confused: I mean I know who Axl Rose is (Guns & Roses, right?) but what the heck is this dance named after him???

:confused:

Me too -- I'm so proud of my BSP sis!!!:D :) :D

I would like to know too!

You don't know the Axl Rose dance?

Okay. GPhiB - do you remember the little side-to-side shuffle that Davy Jones (of the Monkees) used to do? Well, the Axl Rose dance is very similar to that. :)

http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...y/luxhello.gifMany, many congrats to Jill and AF !!!!http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...y/luxhello.gif You rock!!!http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...ty/ylsuper.gif

Well, at last, finally a reference (Davy Jones of the ancient monkees!) that I can identify in my advancing years!!!

Okay, I think I get it now.....but heck, they should credit where credit is due and call it the Davy Jones dance - LOL!


Sooo...... what about a Gene Kelly dance in the rain -- now there is a truly happy dance to celebrate!

Y'all know who Gene Kelly is, don'tcha?
:confused: :(

Of course! It's only one of my favorite movies EVER!

NO WAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!


NOOOOO WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!


Get out!!!!!!


<Kelly does the happy happy joy joy dance>


:) :D :cool:


See? I went to bed last night and all was quiet. Then, I woke up this morning to find several pages of congratulations on your bid to Alpha Phi! Doh! :)


The funny thing was that I was actually in the Rush thread when I found out. I was reading someone's thread when I saw one of your posts. I had read on down a few more posts when the little hampster wheel in my brain started turning. I was like "Waitaminit....did Jill's signature line say 'Alpha Phi AI 2003'?" I scrolled back up and looked at it. I then sat there and thought, "Wait, she's not an Alpha Phi is she? I know Sistermadly is....that's right, Jill had a meeting to go to........oh crumbs, I think I missed something. I know I should have gone to the Alumni forum first!!"


hehehehehe :D


Well, most of us who posted in the Guessing Thread got it right! ;)


Anyway, YAY FOR YOOUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!


Congratulations! :) :) :)


PNAM,


.....Kelly :)

jill- i am sooooo excited for you!!!!!! congratulations and welcome to greek life!!!

WAY TO GO JILL!!!

Sorry I'm a little late w/ the congrats, but it's a huge PITA to keep up w/ all the threads!

I thought I noticed some new letters in your sig! ;)

Congrats to you and to Alpha Phi!

From a fellow PNAM
Adrienne
:D

Well I got a message that my paperwork has been received by EO! :cool:

It was funny how many people actually pegged me in the guessing thread!

I did look at 2 other GLOs but this is the one that was home!

Good. Now you can give me back my copy of The Ivy Leaf. :p :D

(Just jokes between two friends, folks!)

Ivy Leaf...but you know I can kill a plastic plant! :D

Jilly, My ex had a brown thumb and did kill artificial Ferns!:(

If I cant run over it with a Riding Lawn mower, I DONT WANT IT!:D

Funny looking at the start of my thread. I started the official quest on a special day. June 10th. My grandmother's 85th birthday. The strongest woman I know. (ya gotta be tough being widowed with 5 kids under the age of 10 AND pregnant with twins!
Yup she is alive and kicking and the woman is my heart! http://superbabies.homestead.com/files/post07hearts.gif

VERY INSPIRING!!

YAY YAY!!:D :D :D :D :D

Hey Jill when is the initiation date?? :D http://www.superbabies.homestead.com/files/wistling.gif

I'm not sure she should say publicly yet. Recruitment hasn't happened at the local university, and there may be PNMs lurking. We don't want to give anything away.

I'm sure she can tell you via PM.

Congratulations, Jill! You better get that bling-bling badge . . . :D

She knows me well. I can PM you but I will not put it out publicly!

YET

Congratulations, Jill. I just saw your new signature when I was browsing the Beta forum. Way to go, Sister!!!

Jill!!!! I just saw your sig and immediately ran here! I am so excited that you will be my sister!!!

(Sorry for all the exclamation points. It's Rush week here and I'm ready to burst!)

Thanks everyone!
I am guessing that it will busy with both GLOs and especially next month with recruitment but I am pumped! :D

YAAAU aaare Puuumpded?

OKAY Arnoldette!:)

Jilly, Ya to Much Sweety!:cool:

They have to love you for if nothing else your enthusiasim!:D

Day late and a dollar short
 

Thanks darling!

I did get an email from the other org that I was interested in. She apologized for not getting back with me. Things had been crazy with her...she is 8 months pregnant and trying to get things ready before going on maternity leave. From what I heard, she is a wonderful lady who is on the ball...so I can understand how crazy things have been for her.

I do hope to see her(and her new baby) around Vancouver Alumnae Panhellenic! Cause I would love to meet with her and say hello to her!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! :D
I hope that Alpha Phi is a wonderful addition to your life.

LM

Congratulations! :)

:D Congratulations!!!! Wonderful news! I am so utterly happy for you!:D

Woo-hoo! :D I'm thrilled to bits for you! :D

Congrats Sis!!:D

That's okay! I was born late (no kidding)! Thanks for the congrats.

Waiting for my new member packet to come. Since it is going to be shipped to Canada it is SLOW

I shoulda had it go to my US PO Box :)

Congratulations and Triad Love to you Jill! :D

No, it's because you became a member during the same time that collegiates are becoming a member that it's taking a long time. :)
