I'm assuming it's a Phi Mu pin?


Roughly a quarter of my chapter had opals or diamonds on their pins - either surrounding or the points. Yet, most of my chapter also had their birthstone in their pin somehow. The only opal pin owner whose birthday I can remember was born in December.

What's weird is that I'm not usually superstitious; well, not very. But I am superstitious about opals. My mother was born in October and inherited a HUGE opal ring (we're talking up to the knuckle here!), but it was from an aunt also born in October. I know that I won't inherit it, but I have a good idea that I know who will. It's one of the blue-pink ones, really amazing. *sigh*
