So I was taking my usual Sunday afternoon naps. Today was a little different because I had a dream that reminded me why I love history. It reminded how important history is.
In this dream I was giving a history lecture and I pretty much forgot the rest of the dream, the message of that dream resonated with me. In this dream I was trying to explain that history is important because our understanding of it affects our present and our present affects our future because the present is history to the future. We can use History to better our Future.
One of my new motto in life: Learn from history to make history.
I LOVE INCEPTION type DREAMS!
I dont really reblog a lot of stuff, but i love cats and money is a close second ;) lol

I’m not really a risk taker I think I’m just hard headed. So I think despite doctors and trainers advice, I will compete at a judo tournament ONE LAST time. It was really something that I was thinking about doing but ofcourse even though I was thinking about it I already made that decision. It’s better to end it on my terms doing what I love to do. It may be a little risky but I know the risks and I’m not gonna go in there blind. I know my weaknesses better than anyone i think.
Alright just something to get off my chest :)
Want to write and blog what kind of day I had and what epiphany and self discovery and self reflecting and personal growth I experienced today Monday July 18. But I have work tomorrow and I have to wake up early and I have to work early tomorrow. :D haha. So I’ll write it next time.
-if you talk shit about how I typed ^that paragraph, I will slap your lips right off your face. Lol jk I won’t :D but pls don’t. Lol
As im laying down
I forgot my crown
Tired, don’t know wat to do
Might go to sleep, hope my dreams come true
Sleeping and loving my dream
But I know reality is better than it seem
Don’t force me, coz I’ll say no
Leave me alone, I go with the flow
:)
So let’s see, we had a 32% increase in 2009, an 8% increase in 2010, and a potential 10.5% increase this Thursday. That means in just three years, UC tuition rose 50.5%. Please let me know that I’m not the only one deeply disturbed and disgusted by this.
SMFH
It’s the only time where I have an excuse to sleep butt-ASS (lol) naked. Ew.
Sorry if you read this :D
My last name is not Crest, like the toothpaste.
And it’s not Cress, either.
It’s spelled with a K, people.
Ohh. And my first name only has two E’s.
For the last time, my name is ‘Cristina.’ See how I spelled? No, it is not spelled wrong. Don’t you dare put that goddamn ‘h’ there.
Also, my last name may be long, but it is spelled exactly as it’s pronounced if you just took the time and tried it syllable by syllable. And I get that my last name is ridiculously long, but how in the hell does someone come up with ‘Prodigalileo?!?!’
It’s funny because my last name is so simple that you wouldn’t think this happens to me but it actually kind of does a lot. It’s a phonetic thing; a lot of times even though I say “Tran”, people assume I’m saying “Chan” (like when I check into events where they have to flip through a list). Then as I realize they’re flipping towards the front and not the back, and about to say “I can’t find it”, I have to enunciate and be like “TRan, TRAN, T-R!”. And THEN, “OOOHHH okay go ahead!” Haha happened to me last Thursday.
Ehhh It’s Christopher or Kristopher or Christoffer, or whatever variation. It’s Kristoffer Ace Tan, at least they get my last name right :)

Right now lets stay in the present
Can’t worry bout tomorrow cause today is a blessin
The world in a state of aggression
I find calm in you
I see my mom in you
It’s like a feelin’ in ya stomach
when you want it so bad
If we keep keeping it fresh
it ain’t gonna go bad
I’ve been through the valley of love
Rode through the shores of Cali
just to find peace of mind
Looking to the sky
asking for at least a sign
Beautiful you came at such a decent time
When we combine it’s like good food and wine
Flavorful yet refined
You remind me of the divine
So easy
Love can be lost and then found,
I just love having you around
you wearing the gown
I’m wearing the crown
pound for pound
we the freshest couple in town
IF YOU ARE A FAN OR SOMEWHAT INTERESTED IN MUSICALS OR THEATER ETC. THIS IS A SONG YOU MUST LISTEN TO.
THE SONG is EPIC of BIBLICAL PROPORTION!
So people who know me at least a little know my fondness and my passion for combat sports and martial arts. Martial arts has taught me things that I will never learn anywhere else. So for a few years now, I have been a pretty decent judoka, competing in several judo competitions in Southern California. I’d like to think that I was decent in those competitions. Competing in judo and practicing MMA has been my passion for a while. After my admittance to UCLA I knew that these would have to take a backseat so I can focus on school. That is why I was super excited for the summer when I knew I could compete at a judo tournament at least once. I was excited to finally get back in the game. I got back into training for the competition. At first I was a little rusty but I got the hang of it pretty quick. However last Thursday, I suffered a minor concussion. A few weeks ago I had already suffered a shoulder injury. After talking to the judo sensei, he knew that I have suffered a concussion before, he suggested that I withdraw from the competition. I was reluctant at first but after thinking it through, after my second ever concussion from training, from the shoulder and finger injuries, and after aggravating a knee injury suffered from high school football, I have decided to, in my own way, retire from martial arts. THE ONLY REASON IM BLOGGING ABOUT THIS IS BECAUSE THIS IS THE SADDEST I HAVE BEEN IN A LONG TIME.
I am really really feeling sad but I know that life goes on and that its not the end of the world. Writing this has already made me somewhat feel better. I know that I will stay positive. This is the end of another chapter in my life. In closing, this feels worse than being dumped by a girl, just saying :D
