hmmm... good point.

Hyakku, great to see you here. Sorry I broke your heart with all those pictures, but it looks like it paid off, eh?

The closest Chik Fil A is about 40 miles away. But if you order it, I'm there. lol

What is MAP?

No Chick-Fil-A for 40 miles?! Wha...? It's legit the only fast food I eat anymore. Evil McDonald's conspiracy.


Michigan Access Program. It's for students with diverse background and "social identities" coming together...learning about and accepting differences through workshops, mentors, etc... helping to building a strong and accepting LS community by becoming advocates and advisers. (loose summary of the email).

Depending on where you live and whether or not you have a car, you may be eating basically no fast food. All of that stuff is on the other end of Ann Arbor by the mall (aka where I lived last year ). If you're living in the middle of town and near the law school, there are tons of options that are significantly better than regular fast food.

Sounds interesting. Wonder why I didn't get it? Possibly only open to fall starters?

Oooh maybe. It happens a week before the Fall Orientation and it read as if though it was supposed to be a pre-orientation Orientation, so if you summer starters have already been in classes maybe they think it won't benefit you as much?

(no idea, just a guess)

It was indeed. It was indeed.



Car with 4x4 ready to brave Michigan winters to retrieve our chik Fil a. Check.
Relationship with Chik fil a management to pre-establish new relationship in Michigan? Check.




Ample amount of classmates down for sweet tea? Check.

This year will be successful comrades.

^ this guy's alright.

I'm in the final push of write on, so I don't have time to write a full response. But the tl;dr version is that MAP is a Great way to meet social justice minded students before classes even start. It's nice to have a supportive network from the beginning of school. I did map last year, and the folks I did it with are still some of my best friends. Okay, back to blue booking; will post more on this later.

Please add me to the "ample amount of classmates down for sweet tea."

Yeah, I did some searching for it and thta does look like the case. I guess it makes complete sense though we would've just finished finals around that time. We'll be in dire need of a break.

Chick fil A is good, and don't get me wrong, I like it, but I'm more concerned about living in a place with a dearth of Mexican food.

And no one say Chipotle. I like a little barbacoa taco as much as the next guy, but sometimes I need mole and fresh tortillas.

Savor Latino.

There is plenty of Mexican food here that is not Chipotle. For example, QDoba. JK there really are a good amount of Mexican restaurants with pretty legit food.

Also, in case you hadn't heard in Detroit there's a whole area called MEXICANTOWN. Apparently, they have the best Mexican restaurants there but I haven't ventured yet so I couldn't tell you.

horchata? i MUST have horchata.

I've even seen an "horchatini" on some menus so you're in luck. I actually think the liquor store (which here = Wal-Mart) sells some version of the horchatini.

I'M IN.

Total shot in the dark, but is anyone else living in the Phid House??

Does anyone know if it's possible to add the umich email account to a smartphone? Obviously it uses google, but doing it @umich.edu does not work. Heeeeelp

I'm dumb. It works. I'm not cut out for Michigan.
