when we were going through our national new member program, (we were founders.. we don't have bigs) we had "secret sisters" where we would make cute little things for our chosen ones.. Well my secret sister made me this little paddle.. nothing big, just our letters and my name, well, this sister and I had at the time not really gotten to know one another, but now, she's one of my very best friends, and that paddle, i swear to you, will go into my coffin with me when i (god forbid) pass.. it's a symbol of how 30 girls on our campus came from perfect strangers, to the powerhouse that we call sigma delta tau.
My lavalier, i got upon my initiation, but i handed it down to my little sis on the day that she got initiated, that's of great value even though it's not in my possession.
I guess i have to give some love to my jacket too, (everyone else in my chapter better love those things too) seeing as that i sat for two and a half hours in completely stopped traffic, mid-span on the Delaware Memorial Bridge to pick those things up....and i HATE bridges...(my poor girls got an earful that day, let me tell you) yeah... i love my jacket
