Anyway, congrats! :D

Oh, you're telling me about the confusion with it being just another sorority! All the talk in the email/letter about it being the 'most prestigious honor society', etc., made me ask a few other people about whether it was really true or not, and they flipped out about me being invited to become a member. Even my dad knew about it, which I personally had no clue of until I told him I had become a member - I never knew! XD Goes to show how in the dark I can be, I suppose. XP

Thank you for the comment, and I appreciate your congratulations! ^^
