Jujitsu Update [November 2008]

So I’m back doing Jujitsu again, and I got destroyed in class last night. I was physically ill for like 30 minutes after we finished, like to the point of vomiting. Not good.
Anyway, I still feel completely foreign down there. I have no thinking faculties when I’m on the ground. I’m doing ZERO Jujitsu. All I’m doing is using strength-based wrestling and forgetting to breathe. So when I get up I have to rest for like 3 minutes just to be able to catch my breath. It’s quite sad.
On a possitive note, however, I did almost land my first arm bar last night. I grabbed an arm, pivoted the hips, and threw up the legs. He wiggled out of it, but it felt good to actually FEEL like I should do something and have it almost work out.
So yeah…at this rate I expect my blue belt in like 2017.
