I have no words to describe how I feel right now. How I've felt for the past 2 days..butterflies in my stomach..the endless waiting..
4 AM:
Me: How much longer?!
Emad: Still hours to go..we're on page 3 of 15 of the legislation booklet..
Me: (Need someone to talk to in case I'm planning to stay awake despite steady exhaustive breakdown) Are you planning to stay up till we're legislated?
Kurt: Dunno..I don't think I'm going to make it!
Set alarm for 6 AM..and go to sleep.
6 AM:
Wake up, check MC blog. Legislation is still in progress. Laugh at stories emanating from plenary via nomadlife.
9:30 AM:
Wake up without an alarm. Instinct. Blindly head towards PC. Check MC blog - extensions legislated. Refresh blog. See post. "We did it!" Message Emad, who yells the same. Message from Oksana, who'd said she'd let me know whenever it happened. SO excited for Jordan!! :)
The emails start pouring in. I remember the cold, tired afternoon in December at SDC '05 when we created the vision for 2006, promised that we would constantly strive to achieve full membership status by IPM 2007 in Egypt. Miss everyone. Wish MC 05/06 was here so I could hug them. The emails keep pouring in..:)

...2 years...
The continuous effort, the trials and tribulations, the successes and moments of despair..all worth it. About a thousand times over.
Thank you. :)
