[texas*princess]

yay! I'm so glad to hear things went well at the luncheon!

I hope things continue to progress great for you!

[Tom Earp]

Lizz, sounding good!!!!!!

I probably am missing something but you tell yet whichone/who it is???

I am always so happy for any newies as my Initiation was different from anyone elses that I know of in the Fraternity! Heck no one I tell beleives it, but is true!!! Would not change it a bit!


Go Girl, GO!!! I am hopin good thoughts for U!!!!!

[tinydancer]

No, Tom, you haven't missed it - I haven't spilled it yet. Shoot, if I have to be patient, everybody has to!!!

(Woo Hoo post #200 - yea me!!)

Hi Lizz,

Good luck!! Things do sound promising for you; I hope you receive good news before fall.

[SmartBlondeGPhB]

Our alumnae chapter doesn't have any events during the summer either............

[DolphinChicaDDD]

No, Tom, you haven't missed it - I haven't spilled it yet. Shoot, if I have to be patient, everybody has to!!!

We have to wait??!! I was in PA this weekend, and a rule in the house is there is no internet, so I was gonna miss the announcement!!!

OK, so I just jumped in this board here, but I've been reading for a few weeks now...I was part of a local sorority, and we affiliated with a national, but my big sister graduated before we affiliated, so i'm looking into helping her with AI...

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE AND KEEP US POSTED!!!!! I think I'm getting more and more impatient the more I read things!!

[AngelPhiSig]

ahhh! I hate suspense!

Tinydancer is gettin' close to membership in Gryffindor!!!
(I think I might know why you chose that code name....hmmmm?)
Lizz, you know how much it pains me to hear that you still have some waitin' to do but I would say from the sounds of things, Alum Initiation seems pretty certain. I agree that the alum chapter was probably burned by AIs in the past and having you to a few more events is just their way to reassure themselves you are going to be active and involved. Don't lose hope and keep us posted....by the way, at what point will you feel comfortable enough to tell us what GLO Gryffindor really is???

[tinydancer]

Well, I just got a sweet email from the Gryffindor membership chair saying how glad she was that I attended their closing luncheon. She said she wanted me to get to meet more of the members so I could get a real "feel" for the group; and she wanted more of them to meet me so they could be sure that I would be a good match with them. I have liked every member that I have met so far!

I am going to be receiving their newsletter and calendar of events for next year, as she said, "so I could plan to attend." I say that sounds VERY GOOD!!

[SmartBlondeGPhB]

Yeah! That sounds VERY promising. As someone who's chapter had an AI who ended up not being involved, I'm sure it's a pretty big concern for them.

I've had this exact discussion with members of a few of our alumnae chapters.

I would also say this. Compared to other stories PNAMs have told, it's a GREAT sign that she's contacting you!

[GeekyPenguin]

I think Gryffindor likes you!

I thought of something to compare the long wait for AIs to - it's kind of like your "New Member Period." You're going to activities and getting to know the chapter better, just like collegians do!

[tinydancer]

Thanks, Penguin! I LIKE that comparison!!

[texas*princess]

tinydancer - it seems like you are almost home!!!

I hope things continue to go well for you and I hope you find the home of your dreams with Gryffindor!

P.S.
I finally saw the Harry Potter movie and now understand the 'sorting hat' thing, so I'm really excited
