Okay after a reality check (necessary after more than 8 hours of sleep), omg.

That was by far my best-est best-est ever Valentine's, and quite possibly in my whole life.

Methinks a 24 hour recount is necessary, so in brief:

1200-0230 - Sewing and Failing
0230-0645 - Conked
0645-0700 - Rolling about in bed

From here it gets hazy 'cos I kinda entered a trance-like mood involving leaving cakes and shoebags everywhere, and lots of behavior not quite... appropriate. Like fist-pumping at the announcement of preferential treatment for lunch, etcetera

I don't know, its almost as though an entire chapter of my life's just closed on me. Honestly speaking when Max and Co. retired I didn't think we had a viable chance anymore. I'm damn glad everyone in the team blossomed over the year (: Over three plus years its just been growing and festering and in many ways devouring me. At points I didn't quite recognize myself. It came to characterize my very being, as many would testify.

It is a very sober victory, really. On hindsight, RI's two most formidable speakers were away on national team duty, leaving the next three in line to hold the fort.

Really really wasn't expecting a 7-0 victory. Like, in my characteristic anti-Rafflesian rhetoric to the team before the match (coughcough), I was just crapping to galvanise the team, omg I really didn't mean it. But almost nothing makes me happier that we won we won we won

After the match I knew we did pretty sublime, but it was the same feeling we'd felt every single other time we'd come to darn close to beating such a nemesis. It comes from losing too much by too little. We've lost every single competition since '06 to them by a split, and sometimes even by 1 point margins. We've spent hours and days bemoaning our sorry destinies and belabouring all the half-cooked possible accusations of biased judging, just to soothe our crazily deflated egos.

And its okay, we got Lady Laura her Valentines' Day gift.

Things impossible aren't always impossible. I'd address the Rafflesians on this blog if it weren't going to come across too snarky and condescending. Having been up there that long it must be difficult, rather, not to have a halo anymore ><

The tough part now's coming back to Earth, and the rest of the day deserves a second post (:
