We all know those signs of what sorority someone is in and they are usually pretty distinct. Here are some signs of how we know you are in Alpha Omicron Pi.

1. You are obsessed with Roses.

Jacqueminot roses to be specific.

2. You have a new found love for Rubies.

3. A Sheaf of wheat is special to you.

It's just a bundle of wheat, but it means so much more than that.

4. The panda has become your favorite animal, if it wasn't already.

5. You've spent about 50 hours trying to find a download to Dj $crilla's "AOII Rap Anthem" from 2008...

Like why? I just want it on my itunes, why is it so hard to find!?

6. You throw what you know everywhere you go.

Alpha Love all around the world.

7. You've said, "Our color is Cardinal, not red." at least once.

There's a difference.

8. Panda Memes give you life.

9. Arthritis facts seem to roll off the tongue.

10. Pandas and roses are forever in your frequently used tab of the emoji board.

Who knew pandas and roses would be part of everyday communication?

11. You strive to live out your ritual each and everyday.

12. You have seriously said A-O-bye, or A-O-(anything that remotely rhymes with Pi).

A-O-Why not?

13. You have a panda and/or rose next to EVERY sister's name in your phone.

14. Anytime you find something with the Lilly Pulitzer AOII print you buy it...

even iphone 4 cases, and dry erase boards that you don't need, and stationary you won't use because it's not replaceable.

15. You close all messages, emails, and letters with ALAM or Roses.

16. Stell, Hel, Jess, and Bess are Bae.

Our Founders are everything to us.

17. You own some article of clothing with pandas or roses on it.

Shut up an take my money!!

18. You lost your mind when you first heard Desiigner's "Panda" or The Chainsmokers' "Roses" on the radio.

Thank you modern music for allowing the world to download your music.

19. Even if you don't have a Greek Row at least one sister refers to her house as "The Homicron"

20. You work each and everyday to "Exceed the Expectation."
