Welcome

Hey there! My name is Ryan Wonderlin and I am a student at Indiana University. I was born in Bloomington and moved to Carmel, Indiana at a very young age. I LOVE music and have found that music can be interpreted in many different ways. It also allows us to express ourselves and form strong bonds with those around us. This blog describes my experiences and understanding of music.

Tinie Tempah- Wonderman



I can relate so much with the things that Tinie Tempah sings about in this song. I had so many times early in my life when I just wanted to know what I should do for people to accept me. I once got in an argument with my mom because she couldn't afford to buy me the Hollister jackets everyone else was wearing to school. I look back at those times and I feel remorseful. I never conformed, I never changed who I was or what I wanted to be, even though it was tempting at times. Over the years, people no longer bullied me for being different, they respected my individuality. I have certainly not made it to the top like Tinie has, but I plan on working until I achieve my goals, just as he did, one way or another.

  1. I can really tell that you've come into contact with a lot of different situations that made you question who you really are, and it sounds like you consider yourself to be on the right track, if not already there. I like the variety in the style of the songs you chose-- it reflects how the self is much more that what people expect based on what they have seen and experienced.
