Robert Trujillo is a perfect example that dreams do come true when you put hard work and effort into it. The legendary guitarist recently made rounds online as he seemingly predicted the trajectory of his career as written in his yearbook; what did he aspire to become decades ago?
According to Loudwire, the Metallica musician went viral online after a fan took to a Reddit page to share their dad's yearbook photos, and among their father's schoolmates was Trujillo.
In the image, a young musician could be seen and he completely looked different from his long-braided hair image in the present.

He also shared some of his favorite hobbies, which included basketball, football, JV soccer, surfing, music, and stage band.
The guitarist concluded his message by giving a shoutout to one of his literature teachers, writing, "Happy trails to you, until we meet again."
Robert Trujillo Almost Predicted His Future

The outlet noted that although the musician didn't study at the Musicians Institute of Tech, he was able to enroll at Dick Grove's School of Music in Los Angeles. He ended up studying for one year.
In an interview with For Bass Players Only, he recalled, "Dick Grove's was good for me in a lot of ways... I used to jam a lot at Dick Grove's because there were so many different types of musicians, so we spent a lot of time jamming."
