28 Signs You Went To Interlochen Arts Academy

1. Getting accepted was one of the happiest days of your life.


2. You tried to get away with not wearing your uniform... and you usually got away with it.


3. You constantly doubted your artistic abilities...


4. ...and were constantly amazed by all your disgustingly talented friends.


5. You had to get creative with your hookup spots.

"Meet me in the organ building after your oboe lesson."


6. You still crave the MoFro's cheesy garlic bread.


7. ...and the cookie sandwiches!


8. You've braved the frigid tundra known as "Winterlochen."

The Bear is all of us.


9. You had some of the most passionate and talented teachers in the world.


10. ...and you cried in front of at least three of them.


11. You wanted to live in DeRoy.

Curse you, MPA majors and fourth-years! #stillbitter.


12. You complained about the Stone food.


13. You peed on the Bear, or at least *debated* peeing on the Bear.

Josh Groban? Totally peed on the Bear.


14. You ordered Bud's on the reg.


15. You are all too familiar with the struggle that is trying to fly in and out of Cherry Capital Airport during winter.

Your flight's leaving on time? Jokes.


16. You know Rotundances are far superior to the dances held in the Fine Arts building.


17. College application season was the most stressful time ever...


18. ...but it turned out pretty OK, regardless if you ended up going to a college or pursuing an alternative route.


19. You did your grocery shopping at Tom's.

25. You're friends with some of the most gifted artists from around the world.


26. You sometimes fear that you've already lived the best years of your life at Inty.


27. When you see a fellow Interlochener outside of Interlochen, you treat them like family, because -- let's be real -- they basically are.


28. You wouldn't trade your time at Interlochen for the world.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
