Two "small world" stories.
The only other message board i've ever posted on (before this one) is for a band. It's actually how I met my boyfriend (geeky, I know -he runs the website
) ANYWAY, turns out someone started a thread, i think asking about sororities, and I said something about being in one. I got a private message from someone, asking which one. Turns out she was a Sigma K too! It was nice to connect, and though we have yet to meet in person, it's fun to chat.
When I pledged, i went home and was showing my pledge book to my mom. Her good friend was over, and I knew the friend had been a Sigma K (same chapter, i didn't know this until about 2 days after I accepted the bid, so that was fun). She was looking at my family tree page, and lo and behold - her biological sister was my great-great-great-great grandbig (or somethign to that effect). I knew here sister, but didn't know her maiden name - so now it's fun that i'm in the same family with my mom's friend!
