I watch YouTube when I'm bored, and I've been watching a lot of U of Michigan grad videos. If you don't know the videos, then you should look them up because they are freaking awesome! Also when I'm bored, I have been thinking (again) about the impending date I move into my dorm at Loyola. I wish I would have done my homework on colleges. I kind of feel like I settled on Loyola. I kind of wish that I would have realized earlier that I want to do musical theater for the rest of my life and would have actually looked at colleges that have Musical Theater majors, specifically U of Mich. Don't get me wrong. Loyola is a great school, I like it, I get to continue in music there, and they also gave me a large scholarship. But maybe if I would've done something I was supposed to do instead of just denying the fact that I was growing up, I could be one of the many amazing graduates that come from U of Mich. I just have to say that I have not done any research on U Mich itself. I've just seen the videos and heard the stories about it's long list of graduates.
There is a song from "The Battery's Down" (which just happens U Mich grads created and are featured in, specifically Jake Wilson) called This is Your Life that really kind of hits home (It's about 3:45 into the video).
"Hello. What the F are you doing? Like, woah. What is going on man? It's so your life that you're screwing. Oh, no. Get back on the track, Jack.
[Chorus]This is your life. Yea, it's cliche, but it's all you talk about all damn day. So don't you go now and throw it all away. This is your life. You're gonna be okay."
(The verses and the rest of the song still applies to me, it just isn't as relevant to the the topic at hand. Oh, and shout out to the beastly Courney Wolfson and Nina Sturtz seen in the video. Simply amazing.)
Who knows if what I'm doing is best for me? I guess I won't know until I experience it. Maybe if Loyola is not right for me, I can/will possibly transfer to U of Mich.
