OT - I'm Finally Going to be a Michigan Man
Today I received notice of something that I've been waiting a long time for. I found out today that I have been accepted to the greatest university on the face of the earth. I received acceptance into the graduate school in the Masters of Social Work school with a concentration in Interpersonal Practice. I couldn't be more excited about becoming a member of the Maize and Blue family.

I'm proud announce today that I "officially" bought a University of Michigan T-shirt at WalMart officially making me a "WalMart Wolverine!"
Plus I just pooped.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:14 PM ^
I was weary if this thread would be equivalent to the "I retired today" thread.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:33 PM ^
I worry if a thread makes you weary; makes me wary of your comments.
February 25th, 2014 at 11:30 PM ^
I'm pretty weary not gonna lie at this moment, had some celebratory Fat Tires throughout the night.
February 26th, 2014 at 12:19 PM ^
weary (adj): to be physically or mentally exhausted; fatigued; tired
wary (adj): watchful; to be one's guard against danger.
If you're going to call yourself a Michigan Man, you better know the difference.
Congratulations and best of luck in your academic pursuit.

Congrats! What a great day. I cried when I got my acceptance letter.
Just wait until you graduate.
PS - Not sure why some assholes downvoted you.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:15 PM ^
Michigan men do not cry. Only girly men do.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:47 PM ^
Strong men also cry. Strong men also cry.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:54 PM ^
Pimps don't cry.

They never shed a tear
February 25th, 2014 at 10:22 PM ^
I negged him because he implied that he wasn't a Michigan Man before he was accepted to the University.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:44 PM ^
I like this answer and I like that the old school Darker Blue seems to be coming back again lately.
February 26th, 2014 at 8:23 AM ^
It feels good to be back. I know I seem rather juvenile at times ( and I am, make no mistake about it) I'm just a dude who loves the University of Michigan, and attempting to make people laugh, Life is serious enough, so I make dick jokes to get me though the day.
February 26th, 2014 at 11:36 AM ^
I appreciate the brutal honesty and confidence at the end of this comment. Good for you, sir.
Also, congrats Qmatic.
February 25th, 2014 at 11:31 PM ^
Let's really dig into semantics here
February 26th, 2014 at 8:09 AM ^
I'd rather dig into a big bowl of pudding.

Lord Grantham is a bitch

^ girly mahn
February 25th, 2014 at 10:39 PM ^
... the man who had to marry a wealthy daughter of a millionaire dry goods merchant in order to save his estate.
February 25th, 2014 at 11:04 PM ^
You can have a sugar momma and still not be a girly mahn.
February 26th, 2014 at 12:40 AM ^
... but not much of a man. Not much of a man, at all. Best to go amuse yourself in your old Army uniform and stay out of the real decisions, lest you end up with a dead daughter and a bunch of useless shares in a Canadian railroad.
February 26th, 2014 at 1:30 AM ^
How the hell have you collected almost 4500 points in less than 2 months?? That has to be a record
February 26th, 2014 at 7:46 AM ^
I live a sad and lonely life.
February 26th, 2014 at 9:46 AM ^
I cried when I was accepted as well. At the time I thought it was my greatest accomplishment...
I did have to downvote you for complaining about downvotes though... sorry, its just something I do.
love,
jdon

Because some people just won't let other people have nice things. Not a big deal.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:14 PM ^
You're not a real Michigan student until you buy your first beverage at Rick's American Cafe
February 25th, 2014 at 10:17 PM ^
I never bought a drink at Ricks until after I'd graduated.
SKEEPS FOR LIFE
February 25th, 2014 at 10:23 PM ^
Surely what you mean is that you don't have any memories of buying a drink at Ricks until after you graduated?
February 26th, 2014 at 10:58 AM ^
February 25th, 2014 at 10:37 PM ^
Skeeps was just too fratty for me lol
February 26th, 2014 at 6:45 AM ^
February 26th, 2014 at 9:50 AM ^
a few nights at ol Ricks - I'm assuming the lines haven't dwindled down to get into that craphole in recent years, have they?
February 26th, 2014 at 11:41 AM ^
The Blue Lep has been out of commision the whole semester (and will probably be for the rest) turning the rest of the South U bars into 'Nam.
February 25th, 2014 at 10:18 PM ^

February 25th, 2014 at 10:23 PM ^
Congrats and welcome to the U.
February 26th, 2014 at 8:40 AM ^
Isn't that Miami? (YES THAT MIAMI FOO)
February 25th, 2014 at 10:26 PM ^
Congratulations! I remember when I logged into the Michigan Law accepted student page for the first time (it's the way law students find out their decision before they receive the package)....I screamed and did a lap around my house.
There are few better feelings.
February 26th, 2014 at 10:42 AM ^
i did the same thing and then three years later wondered how i could be such a tool. no offense. you might not be a tool for being so excited over getting into a law school but i was. am.
February 26th, 2014 at 1:49 PM ^
But come on, crippling student debt is awesome!
February 25th, 2014 at 10:27 PM ^
February 26th, 2014 at 10:47 AM ^
I think it'd be the coolest thing ever to have Gardner/one of the football players as a tutor. Would be sooo hard to focus., but wouIdn't miss a session.
Doubt they'd have time but don't they sometimes have student work program jobs? Or is it usually just jobs where attendance is optional(or is that only in SEC\ACC land)?
Also OP CONGRATS! (yes caps seem warranted)
February 25th, 2014 at 10:28 PM ^
May your years in Ann Arbor be full of higher learning - mixed in with occasional fun! It won't be easy, but well worth the sacrifice.
