Finally Got The Gear - Yikes!

Well I finally got the gear the other night at kung fu, I just need to buy a mouth guard and hope I don't gag on it.

I can honestly say I am feeling a little bit nervous about the whole sparring thing. I have seen it done a few times in class and wonder if I will be able to prepare myself for the task. I have spoken to a few classmates and some sifus and sihings and they say they all felt the same way. They also tell me it gets better as you do it in class and by practicing. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger right? I know in my mind I have to at least try it. Everyone has to start somewhere right?

Anyways not much more to say just thought I would put my feelings out there. Thank you to everyone who has given me advice about the sparring.
