I would like to answer this one also.....I hugged my family members and close friends of the family who were all Sorors. I wasn't crying yet, but I couldn't hold back while we were singing the hymn and the tears began to flow. Then, I was overwhealmed with excitement and that excitement still has not left me.

Such a beautiful thread!

I'm still new (to GC and AKA) lol, so it's pretty easy for me to remember...

my first action was crying and hugging every soror I could! I tried on every single piece of para I had been gifted and took tons of pictures...lol, then I threw up the pinky in the mirror (haha, I can't believe I'm admitting that last one). The following week we were in action with a servicep rojec.t

Smile I LOVE going down Memory Lane on AKA Avenue .....

Let's see .... I cried like a baby, celebrated with my new sorors (felt a little cautious with my former Big Sisters!), lost my voice skee-weeing with my shippies (yep - Chicago!), put on a ridiculous amount of pink and green para from literally head-to-toe ...and I don't remember the rest.

I Do remember that Fall Quarter sophmore year, I painted my single dorm room an obnoxious electric green --there were pink and green AKA accessories Everywhere, the ultimate pink and green AKA room ..."...an ivy's dream, a Soror's treasure..." Sorors loved it and prospects/ivies feared it (oh, I mean 'fear' in the nice awe-struck way heehee ) Well, y'all know I'm old - school ...no apologies!

Have a great night

The first thing I did as an AKA was cry. The next thing I did was pinch myself because I felt like I was dreaming lol. But the first MAJOR thing I did as an AKA was attend NARC. It was amazing to see so many Sorors in the same place. AKA truly painted Atlantic City pink and green!

The first thing I did is cry and Thank God!!! The second was buy an AKA watch from the vendors that were selling at our celebratory luncheon (I am a lunch fanatic and have worn it everyday since April). Now I am on the Ways and Means Committee and being very active in the planning of our 5K Walk in September.

Of course I have been rocking the para (in some form or another) almost every day.

Crying seems to be the common thread Sorors! I still haven't made it through the hymn....
I cried, hugged, and strolled my heart out!

P. S.: Hey Boss Lady!!!
