I developed a wonderful relationship with Soror Ideal that is very similar to MeezDiscreet and CT4'srelationship.

Because I was so young when I first registered on GC (it was the summer before my Senior year in HS), I never really felt like it was my place to engage in some of these grown discussions (Greek life, relationships, etc.), so I only posted once in a blue moon.

When Soror Ideal and I began exchanging PM's, I was still in high school (a senior). We talked about many things including her career, my goals, and other life issues. Some time before this school year began (my freshman yr. in college), I expressed my interest in AKA. She gave me advice on contacting different people and remaining discreet and humble. I remained VERY discreet while she helped me get ready for Rush and wished me the best of luck.

I can say with no doubt in my mind that there were times when I WORKED Soror Ideal's nerves. I would IM her with questions and ask the same question in millions of different ways. Sometimes, I even questioned the advice she was giving me. But, I made sure to never step on any toes and get too big for myself. She laughed with me (and probably at me), and always made sure I understood how much confidence and pride it takes to be an Alpha Kappa Alpha woman!

When I finally became a SOROR, I had to tell her! Soror Ideal knew before alot of people in my life, because she means THAT much to me. I am now a Soror of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, bursting with the pink and green SPIRIT and I am SOOOOO glad I had her to help me see the light!
