| So I went looking at colleges today. And now you're going to hear about it. Yes... So first we went to Oakland. It had all kinds of woods and meadows and such, which is cool. And it was pretty small and compact, which means no getting lost. We were poking around in the students union, and I guess we weren't supposed to be, cuz this maintenence guy was like, "Um, how did you get in?" It was funny. I'm not so sure about Rochester (the town Oakland's in). It's not really a college town. Kind of like Rockford on steriods. It had a lot of cool shops and stuff, though. And Detroit's pretty close so..... Then we went to U of M, which was big and confusing. The campus kind of oozes into Ann Arbor. Speaking of Ann Arbor, that is the most beatific town I've ever seen! The people actually looked happy to be there, which is more than can be said for Rockford most of the time. And people were playing guitars on the sidewalks, which is always cool. I saw a "make art, not war" sign at a bus stop and there were "beat Bush" fliers all over campus. I think I'd fit in there. Visiting U of M made my life more complicated, because I didn't think I wanted to go there, but now I'm not so sure..... So yeah. I'm done. I hope y'all had fun today. |

Shinigami | 08-15-04 12:15pm Yeah, that's what I've been trying to warn people of Oakland about. But other than that area it's really nice and 'mellow,' I guess you could call it. If you're accepted to UofM and like big classes for your priliminary stuff, then go for it, I wouldn't have been able to get in anyway. |
Angel_Bob | 08-15-04 2:58pm U of M is awesome. I love Ann Arbor. It's a really cool city. And a major college city. They have all the different ethnic restaurants, an arcade across the street from a sex shop... it's awesome. |
