Icon7 Holy cow: I just got 4 stripes tonight

I am ecstatic. We had no idea it was a testing night. We were just rolling the entire night switching partners every 15 minutes or so. At the end of the session, he told us to get back on the mat and started giving out stripes. I expected to get 1 maybe 2, but I never thought I would get 4. I was mostly amazed because I've only been doing it since January, and I felt like I had one of my worst nights.


p.s. I am not gloating. I am just trying to share my joy.
