I just got back from my judo competition. 4 fights, 3 wins(two armbars,one pin), one loss(via penalty), 3rd place in the end. I didn't really give my best, unfortunately. I wasn't nervous, I was downright scared! Not of beatings or injuries, but of embarrassing myself. The opponents were lesser belts, but with more competition experience. If I had been more aggressive and composed I could have won the gold. On the other hand, I competed with no more training than 3 times a week, with no decent sparring partners, no supplementation and two hours of sleep the night before.
But, I guess I should be satisfied. I learned that competition is a whole other animal. It's chaotic, wild and not something i enjoyed. Maybe I'll do it again, but not soon.

That's a comical assessment although you may or may not have meant it.
I find competing in sports really exhilarating, but draining being out in that sort of platform. I've always imagined myself in the Octagon like most prolly do. I would prolly gas out after the 1st round from adrenaline dump or maybe even on my way into the Octagon. There's nothing worse than embarassing yourself...haah.
Contemplating what to eat for breakfast and what new documentary or film to watch!
Somehow I had a partial dream of Liz Carmouche...what the heck. It was me watching her train and do interviews like in the primetime show. Why couldn't have been Gina or heck even Ronda. It must have been all the weird banter going on between two fellow board members on here...roflz!

Any comedy apart of that "I wasn't nervous but scared" is unintentional.
I'm barely awake right now, so what I type isn't entirely in my control.
Seriously, I really thought I would enjoy competing more than I did.

So i was just in the car putting some money in the bank in built up traffic with cars behind me and a four wheel drive in front of me, the fur wheel drive indicates to go left while driving forward, he then decides to reverse out of nowhere to try and squeeze into a very small spot to his left the only problem is that i'm behind him in built up traffic so he shouldn't be reversing right? well luckily for him he thought he could be a monster truck and reverse of the front of my car to get in the car park and then has a shocked look on his face when he hits me easily and puts marks all over the front of the car, bare in mind i had no room for reversing because of the aforementioned built up traffic.
So then he gets out of the car with his stupid wife who has a scowl on her face like it could possibly be my fault and the guy who resembles bjorn rebney in every way tells me that I should have went around even though I ad no room to reverse or get on the other side of the road where cars are driving in the opposite direction anyway, so I said don't think it's a little silly to keep reversing when there's a car right behind you clearly like your a monster truck, he had a guilty sorry look on his face and said i'm sorry your right, I have a look at the damage and it's only a lot of tire marks so I said because you haven't been a dick and this can easily come off I won't get insurance matters involved so he said thank you and I finally had room to get ahead of him and that was that.
Some people I swear are missing more chromosomes then they should to be able to drive.

You should consider some punctuation. Dots are your friends.
