I got my badge yesterday!!!!
Whoo Hoo!!! My *beautiful* ASA badge arrived yesterday. I was kicking myself for not ordering a fancier badge until I opened that package today. I was really surprised how very pretty the plain version is in person. I saw my sponsor's badge, but I didn't get a close look.

Hooray!!!! I'm so happy for you! I think the badge is like an engagement ring. You can shop around and fall in love with the fancy ones, not afford them and end up getting something not as ornate, but it's the meaning behind the piece of jewelry that's the important thing... unless you're Elizabeth Talyor.

Yay for actually HAVING your badge to get initiated with!!! We had to use our big sis's because ours were never actually in on time. Congrats, my one-step-closer almost sister.

That is VERY exciting!! Yeah you! Especiall since you've waited as long as you have, I am sure it is very beautiful!
I am not sure about ASA, but some groups will let you 'upgrade' your badge. That may be something you'd consider doing to celebrate your 10th, 20th, or50th ASA-aversary.

One of our advisors upgraded when she visited HQ. She paid the difference between the plain & the jeweled, and I believe she got to keep her plain one, or she could donate it.

Thanks, everyone!
I would like to upgrade in the future. For now, I'm pleased as punch Now I just need to get initiated. No, the date hasn't been set yet.

Yippee!! I remember how excited I was when I got my badge. It was some time after I was initiated, though. I wore my sponsor's badge in the meantime.

It IS exciting when you get your badge. I was so happy when I got mine.
It's kind of interesting that ASA lets you order a badge prior to initiation. I wore the badge of one of my Tri Delta sponsors (the woman who guided me through the initiation ceremony) until I received mine.
Congratulations!

It also probably depends on the organization. ri-Delta puts the chapter and member number on the back of your badge, which before fall recruitment you wouldn't know what your member number would be.
