Your College Admissions Theme Song

<p>At chikadee: You own so hard for using Andrew Bird for that. You’re right that “A Nervous Tic Motion of the Head to the Left” makes a great college song. That didn’t even occur to me.</p>

<p>"Unwritten’</p>

<p>Natasha Bedingfield!</p>

<p>I’m going with the wise folks who said “The Final Countdown”. I’m an Arrested Development freak, so I’ve always been a fan of the song, but it certainly has felt appropriate lately.</p>

<p>also; breakaway- kelly clarkson</p>

<p>If i get rejected
F*** You by The Smashing Pumpkins

<p>Lyrics:</p>

<p>Don’t you wanna go for a ride
Just keep your hands inside
And make the most out of life
Now don’t you take it for granted
Life is like a mean machine
It made a mess out of me
And let me come between
Like an anchor dream, I was stranded
I was stranded, yeah yeah yeah</p>

<p>And I’m steady though I’m starting to shake
And I don’t know how much more I can take</p>

<p>Chorus:
Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay while I wait
This is how a heart breaks</p>

<p>Don’t you wanna go for a ride
Now to the other side
Feels so good you could cry
Now won’t you do what I told you
I remember when you used to be shy
Once we were so fine, you and I
And why you gotta make it so hard on me
Yeah it’s hard on me</p>

<p>And I’m sorry but it’s not a mistake
And I’m running but you’re getting away</p>

<p>Chorus:
Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay while I wait
This is how a heart breaks
This is how a heart breaks</p>

<p>You’re not the best thing that I knew
Never was, never cared too much for all this hanging around
It’s just the same thing all the time
Never get what I want, never get too close to the end of the line
You’re just the same thing that I knew
Right before the time when I was running from you</p>

<p>Chorus:
Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay while I wait
This is how a heart breaks</p>

<p>Chorus:
Well this is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay while I wait
This is how a heart breaks</p>

<p>Oh yeah
This is how a heart breaks
Oh-oh-oh
This is how a heart breaks
I can’t take it
How a heart breaks
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
This is how a heart breaks
This is how a heart breaks
Oh-oh</p>

<p>This is how a heart breaks
This is how a heart breaks</p>

<p>Totally describes how I’m feeling 3 hours before my Early action decision.</p>

<p>For the whole college process–“Let It Be” by The Beatles.</p>

<p>And for the decisions, I definitely agree with “Please Mister Postman” also by the Beatles.<br>
“Please Mister Postman, look and see
Is there a letter in your bag for me
I’ve been waiting a long long time

Deliver the letter, the sooner the better”</p>

<p>And of course…IT’S THE FINAL COUNTDOWNNNN! do do do dooo</p>

<p>This is a song dedicated to my deferral for ED to my top school:</p>

<p>“Won’t Go Home Without You” by Maroon 5</p>

<p>…Every night you cry yourself to sleep
Thinking: “Why does this happen to me?
Why does every moment have to be so hard?”
Hard to believe that</p>

<p>It’s not over tonight
Just give me one more chance to make it right
I may not make it through the night
I won’t go home without you</p>

<p>A very dramatized version of what I feel like I am going through. xD (I am not crying myself to sleep, though.)</p>

<p>I third The Mountain Goats - This Year.</p>

<p>I’d also like to add Condition 11:11 by Defiance, Ohio and Starlight by Muse.</p>

<p>…And I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been listening to Boys Night Out - Fall for the Drinker on repeat since I got deferred.</p>

<p>I found the perfect one:
Come Sail Away by Styx</p>

<p>“Good Life” by Kanye West</p>
