I've been training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for a few months now and have even been to Vegas to compete in a tournament.  I'm considering another fight in July but it's a really big deal because it's tied to UFC 100.  It would be pretty cool to fight in that atmosphere but honestly, I get so nervous even going to the dojo to train.  I don't know what it is but I get butterflies in my stomach and a shortness of breath.  I thought that's what happened when you fell in love.  Maybe I've found my love :)  Kidding.  But I have come to love my teammates and my gym family.  They've been an encouragement and huge support to me in the last few months.  Plus, I get to train with the best female grappler in the world.  How about that!?  I didn't just join a gym, I stumbled into training with the best.  Just watch the beginning of this video to hear how bad ass my coach is.  

P.S. I'm not gonna lie, there are perks to belonging to the #1 womens team 3 years in a row (even though I've been a member for a few months).  This guy at the fight shop asked me where I trained and when I told him he struck up a conversation about worlds and I got 5% off my purchase.  It also helps because he was cute :)
