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.

#neverforget


20. You always came back to campus with a different hairstyle and/or color after breaks.

22. You busted out your shorts as soon as it hit 40 degrees.


23. You know Morp > Prom.


24. You staged a #YOLO moment for when you accepted your diploma.


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.

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
