Meeting sisters from other chapters

I recently had the opportunity to visit Cairo for a week. While sitting on a bench in the lobby of the Egyptian Museum -- I spotted a Chi Omega alumna friend of mine from California! We were both shocked! What fun.

Sorry for the crash! But one of my Chi O daughters wore a Chi O shirt to work the other day and discovered that her boss, a doctor, is a Chi O from the LSU chapter!

I was at a nice restaurant a couple of weeks ago with a guy friend who is well-aware of my affinity for my sorority. At the table next to us were two lovely ladies in their 70s, if I had to guess. My friend looked at me and said, "I bet they are Chi Omegas." I laughed and went on with my meal. As we were leaving he went up to their table and ASKED them if either was a Chi Omega!?!! One raised her hand and said, "Well I am! How did you know?"

We had a delightful conversation and my friend was quite proud of himself!

Random Chi O board crash...

Wonderful news from my favorite Chi Omega! Of my best friends from college (a beautiful Chi O!) got engaged this weekend!

She's a great example of an involved alumna and I can't wait for all of the fun planning ahead between our little group and her sorority sisters, who have always been so welcoming of Nikki's "other sorority" (us!)

Good times!

Hey adpiucf, want me to help you learn the tune to "Shades" so you can hum along at the reception?

THAT is a neat story!

A few weeks before I was initiated (back in '03), I was wearing a hooded sweatshirt with silk screened "Chi Omega" in the Atlanta airport, waiting for a flight. A woman introduced herself to me as a Chi Omega - turned out to be Barbara Rideout from Chi O Creations - where I had bought the sweatshirt, lol. Its a small world!
