Another jiu jitsu competition in 1.5 days. I limit water and food intake so I can lose the weight. Am I even excited about this? Yes… I am. I’m just a white belt trying to feel about himself. Because maybe if I win this, I can prove to people I’m tough, capable, lovable, a really good white belt.

Man who cares about any of this. Who cares about winning a local competition that has absolutely 0 value to society. I’ll just go and have fun. It’s the best cliche answer.
