Alright...I've held this in until I turned blue! I also hate being a tease

A couple of days ago, I came home to find a a package on my porch. My heart started pounding as soon as I saw it! And by the time I saw that it was from "Jane Eyre," I was nearly hyperventilating. I left my hubby to carry all the stuff in from the car plus our baby, and I ripped into the box.

The first word I saw was...CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I started jumping around like a loon and squealing. My husband gave me a big hug, and he took me out to celebrate.

And here's the best part. My acceptance letter came on my birthday! I will always remember the exact date of my own personal "bid day."

I didn't let you all know immediately because I wanted to tell my "Little Women" helper first, out of respect for her and her organization. I waited for her reply e-mail because I wanted to be certain that she didn't read the news on my GC thread first. I have made a decision to not reveal the name of "Little Women." I have received private messages saying that the organization wasn't being fair by letting me hang there, etc. But I can say with complete sincerity that Little Women did nothing wrong, and I have nothing but admiration and respect for them. The delays were all the kinds of things that life brings. My contact person got married and moved. I changed states myself and took time off to have a baby. Officers changed. Policies changed. The entire structure of the organization even went through a few changes. If I had been willing to wait, something might have happened for me and Little Women...maybe, maybe not. But once I was introduced to Jane Eyre and got to know a few sisters, I knew that I had found my Home. Not THE ONE AN ONLY home, but the place that I choose to call my own.

I have so much more to say, but I'm gonna leave you with that to digest.

Thank you, everyone, for your undying support.

HINT #1:

Some NPC organizations do not specify a gem or precious stone.
"Jane Eyre" is not among them.

Drolefille · #**207** 06-23-2006, 05:04 PM

Our options are:
Alpha Phi, DG, Thetas, Phi Mu?, ZTA?

Not sure about the last two, I'm going based on the Greek Info Pages

tunatartare · #**208** 06-23-2006, 05:09 PM

time for another clue, I'm gonna rule out ZTA because AI is rare in Zeta

Shouldn't it be more than that?

She said this group is NOT among ones who don't specify a gem.

We do specify a gem, so we should be on the list (but I'm 99.9% sure it's not us).
