My AI search!! - Page 8

Ok guys, I have news!!!

Last night, I went to an informal get-together with some of the girls in the alum group-and it was so much fun! We went to this little wine bar, there were about 8 of us, and there were a couple of girls there that I've never met before, so I got to meet some new people-and see some I already have met. When the girls asked where I went to school, I just put it right out there-my situation, the whole AI process, why I'm there, etc etc-and I was so glad I did! If they didn't know I wasn't alum, they do now! The girls I had already met did know though. And ya'll, I had so much fun getting to know the girls and laughing and having a blast! So, I'm getting ready to leave, and the AC president told me that we're at the point where the alum chapter is ready to sponser me for AI!!!!

And she's going to send in my paperwork to their nationals next week!! And she said don't worry about having a sponser, that all the girls liked me and thought I was a perfect fit!!! OMG, I am so so so excited!! It's like, everything I was worried about totally got taken care of last night. I am just on cloud 9 right now!! Oh, and the president also said that I'll be initiated in the fall ( assuming everything is ok)!! Happy happy!!
I feel so good knowing that I'm almost home!!

Well, I had another event with my group yesterday!! It was really fun-we went to a place where you pick out a piece of pottery thats already made, and paint it however you want, and then the place glazes and fires it for you. I am so not artistic, but it was really fun! There were about 8 of us there, and we had champagne ( which really helped our painting, haha

), cheese and crackers, fruit tart. The president had contacted whomever she needed to to get my paperwork started, but hadn't heard back from her yet, so I still haven't filled it out yet! But some of the other girls were asking me if I've gotten to start it yet. I had alot of fun, and we have another event this Thursday! Happy hour at a bar in downtown Raleigh, so I am looking forward to that as well. Except that I'm running a fever and not feeling so good right now!

But things are going well, and I will post later this week after Thursday's event!

Hope you were able to go and had a good time tonight!

Well, I wound up not being able to go to happy hour last night...I was at the hospital all day long with seminars and stopped by the unit to clock in ( big mistake!!

) and they were super busy and short staffed, and begged me to work for a couple of hours...and because I'm a sucker, I did it. So by the time I left, I just wanted to go home, since I had to be back at work today. So, I didn't get to go.

But I'm going to try and get together with some of the girls in the meantime, between now and next months event.

I was wondering if there were any developments lately for you regarding AI? It sounds like you are on a great track to find a home!
