Who are We??? A Question I've Always Wondered.
Its summer, there isn't a whopping amount going on, thought it would be a good time to ask this question that I've wondered about since I joined the MGoBlog community. Very simply, I've always wondered in a more general sense (not about anyone specifically) who all of you are (categorically speaking of course). Would appreciate any of you who choose to participate in this unscientific study, feel free to answer with one of the following categories that best describes you:
1) high school student
2) University of Michigan student
3) student at another University or college
4) Michigan alum
5) Non-alum Michigan fan
I know many of you relish your anonymity but again, just trying to figure out a little more about who comprises the MGoCommunity.
And for the sake of fair play - I'm a 4, Michigan alum of over a decade.
29 y/o going to Washtenaw but will be transferring to EMU.
my 40 time down from "a holiday weekend" to the 4.5 range, you may see me on Saturdays.
I'm a 4...twice, actually. Left and worked in the real world after graduating from U of M and came back to Ann Arbor for the second degree from that fine institution.
(5), son of a (4).
Alum, c/o '06.
Cool. LSA/Sociology. I knew a few Jens, I bet I knew you.
So creepy.
I took a few Soc classes, I bet I knew you too! For being such a "large university", Michigan always felt kinda small. I felt like everywhere I went I'd run into someone I knew.
You were in Markley 4th floor right? I know you for sure. SMOKE ME OUT.
5th, actually. VAN TYNE! But I'll take you up on that.
I lived in 6th Van Tyne Freshman year!
Apparently it's a Markley class of '06 party on here!
I'm a 4, sibling of another 4, daughter of two 5's. Wish I was a 2 again if only so I could be on the field for every home game again. Ah, the perks.
4th Reeves here - it was like Lord of the Flies second semester.
I was also class of 2006, Markley 4th Reeves freshman year. The worse part about it was that on the weekends, at least 2 or 3 of the 4 stalls would be unusable due to vomit.
I'm still pals with a 4th Reeves. Having no cell service really makes you bond. At least your floor wasn't the one that stole all our lounge furniture.
Also a '06 Poli Sci alum
'06 Econ alum here.
Got out just in time to be the one responsible.
Fortunately, I have no responsibility on that front--I went to law school (but sadly not at Michigan) afterwards.
Class of '06 as well, was in the RC.... finished with a BGS. Long story.
and here I thought Dhani Jones and I were the only two RC alums to be into sports. Excellent.
I'm a mix of 3 and 5. I'm a University of South Florida alum. I was born and raised here in Michigan where I now reside. I lived in Florida for the last two and a half years of high school though so I went to college in state rather than paying non-resident tuition at Michigan. Biggest mistake of my life. I'd have much rather gone to Michigan.
6) Alum of another university. That might qualify me as 5), so slot me accordingly.
(2), great-granddaughter of a (4), granddaughter of two (4)s, and daughter of a (5)
4, but i wish i was still a 2.
Amen to that.
2 and 4. YEE YEE!
Ann Arbor born and raised/alumnus.
#5 married to a #4...
I'm a (4) as of last year, a (3) because of grad school, the son of 2 (4)s, the grandson of a (4) and the nephew of a couple more (4)s. There's a hell of a lot of maize and blue in the family.
4 (grad school)
Graduated from Michigan in 2005 and am currently in grad school at Texas.
Right up to the second to last word you had me pegged as well (I'm in Texas, not at Texas). Aero in '05 at Michigan, just finishing up my PhD (knock on wood) at A&M.
that's an awesome achievement.
For the record, a 4 here.
Congratulations on finishing up your doctorate! That's awesome. I just finished up year 4, and it still seems like I'll never graduate. Cheers to you.
Texas, you my friend must love dominate football teams
2, boyfriend of a 2, son of a 4 and a 4, and brother of a 4. The force runs strong in this one.
You actually just said a whole lot about yourself right there.
let funkmob_starchild find out!
After reading your post this won't leave my brain.
"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."
