Jess,
Enjoy tomorrow! Initiation was and still is the highlight of my Pi Phi experiece. It goes by so fast for something that you wait so long for!
I'm heading up to our chapter's initiation on the 23rd and even though I go each year its still as special as the first time. (plus I'm on AAC and I advise our VP Social so I'm always excited to meet our new actives!!)
Becca, I hope that your initiation was everything you hoped it would be!
Pi Phi love and mine,
Jen

I'm so fired up about y'all becoming sisters! The night before my initiation, a sister told me that I would feel so special during my initiation. She was right and I can remember it like it was yesterday.
May that feeling stay with you the rest of your lives too.

As I write this I am still wearing my whites and my golden arrow over my heart. Initiation was so beautiful, although my chapter president talks really fast when she gets nervous... so I think I missed half of what was said

Welcome fully into our bonds, nucutiepie! Don't worry about missing half of what was said. When you take part in initiation as an active, you'll get to hear it plenty of times. The first time you help initiate new members is a powerful experience, too. I think that's when you finally realize what an amazing unbroken chain we've formed since 1867. We all share that connection.
And now you can finally WEAR OUR LETTERS! (And now you know exactly why you couldn't before!) Bet I know what you'll be wearing to class on Monday.

I went through initiation earlier today, and it was beautiful! I loved it so much and feel so honored to be a part of something so wonderful. I am wearing my letters for the first time and am really proud to be wearing them! I can't wait for our sisterhood activity tonight, we're painting pottery at this place called Kiln Creations!

Congratulations and welcome, Jess! It feels great putting on that letter sweatshirt for the first time, doesn't it? The beauty of our initiation ceremony can't be put into words, and now you know. When you go to class Monday, you'll just have to be dripping in Pi Beta Phi stuff. You've earned the right to wear our letters.

Initiation is truly beautiful, and I swear each time I go through it I love it even more. I remember being initiatied and not fully understanding what everything meant, but today I think it really hit me. The ideals upon which we were founded are truly special and unique, and as Pi Phi's we are truly blessed to be a part of such a wonderful sisterhood. So to all of the new initiates: wear your arrow and letters proudly and enjoy your first chapter!
Pi Phi Love and Mine,
Erin
PS I have to say that I'm really bumming right now. No more weekly pledge meetings.

Letters
Like most chapters, we don't let our new members wear our letters until initiation...I think it makes it that much more special when you understand the meaning behind them.
This Christmas I made my sister her first set of letters (she never got them from her big) and it was so great to see her wear them...now if I could only get the iron-on transfer stuff off my carpet I'd be set!

Other houses on our campus gave their pledges their letters on bid day! I couldn't imagine that, I love knowing that I earned my letters and that I fully understand the meanings of Pi Beta Phi. I'm glad our house does it this way, and I miss the weekly pledge meetings too! Congratulations on being a Rho Chi Erin!
