Best of luck.
Agreed. Much in the same way a PNM gets hurt when she is promised a bid and doesn't get it, an active sister can get hurt when the PNM kisses ass too much and then goes somewhere else. There can be a lot of disappointment on bid day on both sides, and that is why you should be tactful.

Now, it is great to express that you really enjoy a house, just don't make any comments that make it sound like that house is the one and only.

Examples:

"I feel more at home here than any other house" == BAD
"I feel so comfortable here, I hope I get a chance to meet more sisters" == GOOD
"I can't wait to be an XYZ" == PSYCHO
