You know you're a Pi Phi when. . .
 
I saw this thread in the AXO forum and thought it would be fun. I'll start. :)

You know you're a Pi Phi when...

-you start to love carnations more than roses
-you start collecting angels
-you get excited when you see an arrow on a building and wonder if the architect or his wife was a Pi Phi
-you want to collect as many badges as possible
-when in the shower you sing Pi Phi recruitment songs

Just a start! I had thought of a ton more last night. :)

When you see celebrity Pi Phi's (like Jennifer Garner) on TV and shout "She's my sister!!!"

Txsurfinwaves 07-07-2004 11:09 AM

When you see a street called Monmouth Drive and freak out...and to make it even worse,your boyfriend is looking at you like what the hell??:D

When you're in a senior floriculture class and the professor says, "A darker flower contains more fragrance oils, thus a dark red carnation would be more fragrant than the others," and you unthinkingly go, "YEAH! YEA PI PHI!"

(Luckily, the only other women in the class are both Pi Phis and applaud but you want to die anyway and thirty years later, you will still be putting up with cracks about carnations from your fellow alums.)

Instead of lullabies, your kids only heard "Take a little golden arrow" and "one two three words" when they were babies trying to sleep.

erniegurl00 07-07-2004 02:27 PM

You get excited when you walk into a flower shop and actually see a "wine" colored carnation! (At least in Indy, most carnations are plain red.)

- you draw arrows and letters all over your notebooks and anything you can get your hands on

- you obsess over anything wine and silver blue

- you search ebay for pi phi things every day to see if anything new pops up

- you make iron-on letters and paint pi phi picture frames for your friends just because!

- you make a photo site mainly so you have a place to post all of your pi phi pix so the world can see what amazing sisters you have

- you stumble upon greekchat.com haha

You sing the anthem or "Speed Thee" while staring at your computer at work.

hokieangel 07-19-2004 10:27 PM

i actually did this today in class...
 
when your physics teacher ask for some greek symbols and you SCREAM PI PHI.....

and then giggle everytime he says it

collme83 07-20-2004 03:15 AM

You Know You're a Pi Phi When......

"All Night Long" by ACDC comes on and you've never sang a song so loud in your life!

I'd have to agree with these!

re: doodling arrows and letters
 
I thought that once I was out of college, I'd stop drawing arrows, angels, and letters all over my notes. However, my notebooks and textbooks from grad school all have arrows, angels and letters in the margins. Plus, everytime I'm in a meeting or seminar, guess what's drawn all over my notes ...

carnation 07-20-2004 01:34 PM

I've learned to draw a neat carnation!

piphimaggie 07-21-2004 12:06 AM

you know you're a Beta-Delta PiPhi when "Paradise" by Meatloaf has a special place in your heart....Circle up, Ladies!!!!!!!! ;)

Lady Pi Phi 07-21-2004 09:55 AM

You know you're a Pi Phi when you're reading a book when you see that a character is a Pi Beta Phi and you get all excited and you can't wait to get to Greek Chat to tell someone!

(I've started reading "The Rule of Four" and the main character says his mother is a Pi Beta Phi).

nucutiepie 07-28-2004 07:11 AM

lady pi phi i got all excited about that too!
and they knew about our philanthropy!

angelove 07-28-2004 09:57 AM

... when you've bought "The Rule of Four" and haven't had a chance to read it, but flipped through it quickly to find the Pi Phi references

Lady Pi Phi 07-28-2004 10:17 AM

I have another one...

You know you're a Pi Phi when...

you get all excited when the Arrow Furniture commercial comes on!!

angelove 07-28-2004 02:28 PM

Forget squeezing the Charmin ... you only buy "Angel Soft" toilet paper.

Wine&SilverBlue 07-28-2004 02:31 PM

...
 
you see an older woman on the street with a bunch of wine & blue beaded bracelets and you wonder... hmmm... maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe ;)

PiPhiGirl2005 08-04-2004 10:57 AM

....When you're watching a "Full House" re-run in which DJ is at a school dance and you notice that the streamers and balloons decorating the dance are wine and silver blue!

Made me think of my room on bid day. :) Also made me wonder if someone who worked on "Full House" was a Pi Phi. Hmmm....

(And made me think that I'm a loser for watching "Full House" re-runs on my lunch hour!)

angelove 11-16-2004 07:10 PM

bump
 
...when you're thrilled that one of the cover features in the December issue of Martha Stewart Living is a story on carnations, and the prettiest ones in the article are wine!

(And you know you're addicted to Greek Chat when you see an article about carnations, and think "Hey, I know her - she's a Pi Phi and has lots of kids," then realize the article is about flowers)

LOL!!!:D

And you know you're a Pi Phi when you ALWAYS note that the faculty bathroom is wine and blue when you walk in.

emilyclarke831 12-11-2004 12:10 AM

you know...
 
You know you are a Pi Phi when

Everytime someone offers you Wriggley gum you tell them how the woman who created it was a Pi Phi and that is why there is an arrow on the package.

Speechpath 12-14-2004 09:12 PM

your christmas tree is covered with angel ornaments, most given to you by your sisters :)

piphimaggie 12-23-2004 05:22 AM

when you see someone wearing a greek letter sweatshirt or shirt, and you feel compelled to ask them where they went to school, and tell them that you are a PiPhi (whether they are or not!) :D

arrwgrl 05-29-2005 01:12 PM

fanny!
 
When trying to motivate your sisters to do something...the phrase "do it for fanny!" is always mentioned!

jackierae 08-04-2005 10:24 PM

You know you are a Pi Phi at heart when you love your parker brothers pen just because it has a gold arrow on it! :-)
