A new AI Story unfolds
 
I've been lurking for weeks to read about other AI stories. Before I found this site I had already contacted IH and an alumnae chapter of a GLO that I was interested in. Well, after meeting with some of the women they have offered me the opportunity to join their sisterhood!!! I'm so excited! I've already filled out the AI application and just need to wait to hear back from IH but their Alumnae VP is local and has already heard all about me from the former President of the Alumnae Chapter. It's all happened so fast! If the paperwork is completed on time I might even be initiated this spring! Thanks to all of the other PNAMs who have shared their stories here I have hope that there will be a happy ending for me as well.

And, no, my user name is not an indication of the GLO for which I am a PNAM.

Oh, wow! This is great - I can't wait to find out where "home" is for you! :D

litlbear1072 03-08-2004 11:14 PM

Thanks MelodyCat! I'm dying to tell but I'm also superstitious! Hopefully it won't be long before I can blab it to the world!

LittleBear!
From a recent AI, I am wishing you lots of luck

SATX*APhi 03-09-2004 02:45 AM

Wow! Sounds quite positive! Best of luck!

Good thinking. Being a bit MORE discreet than not, is always best, IMO.

bsp-mich24 03-09-2004 09:13 PM

Sounds like your well on your way to AI. *sending good vibes*.:D

ms_gwyn 03-09-2004 10:40 PM

good luck to you on finding your home.

I can't wait to hear which GLO, it is always wise to err on the side of caution

tinydancer 03-09-2004 10:48 PM

How exciting!! I know how you feel about not "revealing" until it is for sure. I didn't tell all until I got the official word from Gamma Phi - and I'll be initiated in a little over a week!

I almost feel guilty knowing what an uphill battle it has been for some other PNAMs. I made the initial point of contact with IH and the alumnae chapter. I met a few different women on 2 occasions and within a month of my first email they extended the offer of membership! I knew then that I had found my "home." I had rushed in college but never felt at home with any of the chapters. I'm so excited to get to know more women and become more involved. There are 2 other alum initiates in their chapter so that told me they were very receptive of the idea. It's so nice to have so many great people to share my story with!:)

LouisaMay 03-10-2004 08:19 PM

Hello and welcome.

Don't feel guilty, feel grateful!! It's so wonderful that you found the perfect fit. I hope you'll stick around as inspiration to all the PNAMs on here.

congrats! i can't wait to hear how it goes!

Well, I can't help but hazard a guess -- I know that Gamma Phi Beta's headquarters is called IH -- any other GLO call their headquartrers that????????????????????;) :p :D

Unregistered- 03-15-2004 04:53 AM

I'm assuming IH and IHQs are one in the same. We call AGD's main office, IHQ.

As in keeping with custom, I think we should refrain from guessing GLOs and maintain secrecy until the PNAM is ready to reveal her affiliation. :)

I would have to agree with my Triad sister as well. Most people have a reason for not telling.

HOWEVER, I noticed on another part of the GC boards, she mentioned how much she felt bonded to an ADPi person...
and meeting the alum chapter etc,

So I am guessing ADPi.

Y'all know full well -- as do I -- that there is nothing wrong with hazarding a guess about a PNAM's home-to-be. The AI threads here on GC are full of guesses by GC members.

And I also know, as my Triad sister (OTW) and GPhiB sister (SMRTBLND) have pointed out, that is is perfectly OK for the PNAM to maintain secrecy until her home is confirmed beyond any reasonable shadow of a doubt. I know that Little Bear will tell us where she's being initiated when she feels the time is right.

I may be OLD but I ain't dumb...:rolleyes:

litlbear1072 03-15-2004 06:21 PM

You can all guess all you want!

Sageofages, I will only say that I think my post in the ADPi forum was mis-read.

It will be very amusing for me to see what y'all pick up on as a possible clue, whether it really is or not! ;)

Buttonz 03-23-2004 09:41 PM

Hmmm.....I wonder where 'home' is...Good luck!

litlbear1072 04-23-2004 10:33 PM

Home is........
 
Well, I think it's now safe to say where my "home" will be. All of the paperwork has been approved and signed by IH. Next fall I will be a............
