Our Beautiful, "Bluetiful" Sisterhood!!

BlueReign · #1 07-25-2001, 09:35 AM

Hey Sorors, I got a story to tell. I just love meeting new Sorors and I am always excited about Sigma. I will be like a neo forever! I just love the decision I made at this point in my life. I came in at 36 years of life so I am dead serious.

OK to the point -- I am always wearing nalia. A bag, a key chain, or something. Well since I am always wearing something and I stay on the go, a lot of inactive older Sorors spot me and we conversate! I have met Sorors in the mall, on the Metro, and even at the club (she had her hat under the bar LOL, and I spotted her!).

I have nalia on my van and when I spot another car with nalia, I always honk, wave, throw up the sign, heck I have even stopped traffic to conversate! Well, the last Soror I met was at the mall. This is the one rare time I went out without nalia! She had her umbrella and I said "hello Soror!" She was a neo from Fall 2000 and we hugged and talked like old friends! Her girlfriend from another sorority (the one with all the members

) looked at us like we were crazy. I just think that we don't see "us" that often! We are small and that is a beautiful thing. The point I am trying to make is to WEAR YOUR NALIA! you never know who you might meet! That is all for now, I just wanted to share that with you. Oh, and I called the Soror that I met at the mall and she told me that her Mom just became a Philo and her little sister will be inducted as a Rhoer in August. Isn't that wonderful!

Soror,

I'm feeling you on that concept and it really works and promotes Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority. I have also met sorors in the DC/MD/Va area and other greeks from those very large organizations just don't understand the true sisterhood. I've had friends from the other sororities say that you all act like a real family or you act like you've known that girl for ever. Why would anyone become a member of an organization to just ignore the other members? Sorors please represent Sigma to the fullest and take the time to get to know sorors from all walks of life because you never know when someone is watching!

Excellent topic soror!

Soror, I noticed this when I was an undergrad well before I knew about Sigma and it bothered me somewhat.

Hey Soror,

I am in the process of rebuilding my 'nalia collection, but I have pulled sorors over, run down sorors (at the gas station) and everything, and this was after I graduated.

Every time I run into sorors, if I am with someone I know, they are like, "Is this one of your friends from school or something?" because we just talk like we are real sisters or something.

Being small is part of it, but I think that the reason we are like this is because a lot of the people we attract are looking for a deeper sisterhood.

Hey Soror,
I feel the exact same way. I am always excited about meeting new sorors. I am the ONLY SGRHO in the area where I live. But I am representing Sigma I have a sign on my car, t-shirts, and several key rings!!! That's one of the reason why I love Sigma soooooo much is because we are small and we ALWAYS show love toward each other.

And again!

Yesterday, I was stuck in traffic and I spotted a Soror wearing a keychain! She was trying to walk across the traffic and it was my turn to move and I stopped to hold a conversation and offer her a ride. A police car was next to me and no one blew their horns! Yes, I know I am silly but I just can't help it. I just love seeing Sorors!

Just be glad you have sorors to see! Since moving to Vancouver, BC I've missed seeing Zetas so much it hurts.

*This is my first time posting. Yay for me!*

It is absolutely refreshing to see examples of the love that Sigma Women have for each other. I have seen it in other organizations, but no other sorority shows what sisterhood is really about like Sigma Gamma Rho does! I hope to become a part of your illustrious sisterhood in the future. You all know the history of the sorority, but these stories that you tell really hit home with a prospective like myself. I also like hearing about SGRhos that represent no matter the time of day, the location, or what type of function they are attending. I'm not a member, but I just see that Sigma Gamma Rho is absolutely beautiful! (I'm not kissing up, just finally expressing myself after lurking and being a silent observer.)

Take care, and be blessed!!!

Thanks for your reply jojapeach. Good luck in your quest for RHOyal blue and Gold.

I must say that being part of this wonderful and bluetiful sisterhood has once again afforded me with the opportunity to meet two sorors that are in the Northern Va area. One young lady is completing her internship for the summer and the other young lady moved into this area. I decided to spend some quality time with them and I really had a ball. One is an undergraduate from Little Rock, Arkansas and the other is a recent graduate from Oklahoma. We spend most of Saturday early evening at the movies. We saw the movie "Original Sin" and had quite a nice time talking and sharing stories about Sigma Gamma Rho and even though I became a member during my undergraduate days in Spr. 83.(Side note: I'm not that old I was just able to pledge during my freshman year in college!) (Second side note: I'm still in my 30s lol) I really enjoy and appreciate the fact that these women display true character and the spirit of Sigma Gamma Rho. I was also with Soror Loquacious9 another young graduate soror that is just a delight and joy to be around. After the movie,I took them around to another soror's home and we just carried on the conversation like old friends. Thank God! I found this true sisterhood!!!

Soror SeriousSigma,

Spring 83?

You are up there with me (in age, not Sigma years). But isn't life better now! I was one mixed up confused person in my 20's but I can say that I now know exactly what I want and I am going for it!

SeriousSigma22 · #14 08-08-2001, 05:52 PM

Soror,

I must agree with you on that and I just am glad that Sigma Gamma Rho is leading and paving the way for true sisterhood. Thanks for the continued welcomed response!

Sorors and friends let us keep representing in a positive manner!

TRSimon · #15 08-09-2001, 01:14 PM

It's a really beautiful thing to have sisters everywhere who are real and good to you. I LOVE MY SORORS!!!!
