I was okay with the finale. It was one of the only episodes all season that wasn't entirely predictable

Awwwww yeaaaaahhhh. I had a feeling this was gonna happen.

Checking in for next year. Still desperately searching for housing/roommates. I am open to different options, I would just like to be as close to the law school as possible. If you have any leads, or are looking for a roommate and have questions, please contact me at joshlav@umich.edu. Thanks and Im sure Ill be seeing you all sometime soon!

For the record, the 9th and 10th editions of the Torts book are too dissimilar to use the 9th for class. I just finished looking at them side by side and it's a no-go.

I'm sorry about that.

Yes. I saw some for rent on Oakland, Packard, and the surrounding area. (The little back roads behind Dominick's, across the street from the law school.)

I'm not sure if those houses are pet-friendly but I do see a lot of people walking around with dogs so there's gotta be a decent number of places that are in the area.

Woke up this morning and bam



I haven't even made a budget yet.

^
Des, are you saying financial aid loans just got distributed?

I got a direct deposit from the school that I think is just my COL loans for the summer. I haven't gone through to check if my tuition loans have been posted yet.

Thanks, I was curious

Anyone know any current students looking to unload their contracts book + supps? My PM box is ready and willing.

I see you with that skrilllaaaaa gurlllll.



But in other news I've actually met a couple of wolverines in the past few days. One before I left SC, two more yesterday, and one on a forum I've been on for years before he revealed he was an alum recently. All of them have been great, intelligent and social as hell. Im actually excited to get to school as I keep meeting more people from Mich. I know a lot of people complain about their fellow Law students but so far I'm thinking Michigan is definitely the right place for people that aren't trying to gouge each others eyes out.

^ I've also stumbled across a few Wolverine alums recently. One of the professors who wrote my LOR went to grad school at Michigan. And one of my new co-workers graduated from Michigan Law recently. Both had good things to say about the school.

Also - anyone know of any decent A2 apartments that offer 9-10 month leases?
I'm going to Europe for a couple of weeks after 1L and would rather save money for that trip instead of spending it on 3 months of rent for a place I won't even be in during the summer.

Woodbury offers some sort of abbreviated lease.

Is it fall yet? I'm ready to meet everyone!!

For you other summer starters out there: Are we supposed to bring anything with us to orientation tomorrow?

I am bringing my laptop for the laptop configuration session. I want to make sure wireless and everything works before school starts.

Summer starters began orientation today?

How was the first day of school, kiddies? Did you pack a healthy lunch and catch the bus on time? Were the other kids nice to you?

Classes officially begin tomorrow. Good luck, UMLS Summer Starters of 2012.

I've got a fun idea. Let's all talk about quitting our jobs!! I'll go first.

I just gave 1-month notice to my boss (I know, I'm too nice) after having kept law school a secret for my entire 2 year employment at my ad agency. No one knew. Then I updated my education info on my Facebook and let the news trickle the rest of the office that way. Made for a very fun and eventful day.

Looking forward to a nice summer vacation.

So, getting football tickets supposedly starts Wednesday at 9 am - has anyone gotten an email about it or anything?

Ha! I love this!

Just completed the ticket application!

the season ticket package includes home games but what about the away games - ie The Ohio State game? That's honestly the only one I care about and would go to. Times like this makes me wish I'd become a Buckeye alumni...

Better start hitting up the Ohio State Class of 2015 thread!

In other news, the games switch location each year, so you'll get it as a 2L. Why the OSU love?
