University of Michigan (2022-2023)

[turbid burrow]

That’s the plan

[harsh marlin]

that's why you dip after two years

[river vessel]

You can get any job after working a t10 ib

[harsh marlin]

if you stay you're a masochist

[river vessel]

Exactly

[harsh marlin]

not true lmfao

[ornate moat]

yep but quant is definitely so much more lucrative than ib

[river vessel]

Nahh if you stay you’ll get partner in 15 years if ur good

[ornate moat]

quants make more than ib's

usually

[river vessel]

But not worth the hours and if you hate the work

[high nebula]

surviving 80-100 hour work weeks for three years is much easier said than done

[harsh marlin]

yup

[river vessel]

Ur making bank straight outa college tho

[harsh marlin]

eh higher base lower roof

[river vessel]

$130k + $60k bonus usually

Making that at 23 is worth the hours

[high nebula]

i think ur being too optimistic

lol

130k + 60k is basically unheard of

its usually 150k total comp

at like

jp morgan'

[river vessel]

Well I’m a little off

[high nebula]

lmaol

[harsh marlin]

this is like first year at a mid bb

[high nebula]

yes

no

at a top bb

[river vessel]

Goldman starting is 150 base I thought

[harsh marlin]

goldman and ms pay a bit more i think

avg first year

[high nebula]

have you guys read the goldman survey thing though 💀

[river vessel]

Goldman ceo is a shit hole tho

Cut everyone’s pay by 30% and only his by 10%

[harsh marlin]

that's why we go to morgan stanley 💯

[river vessel]

Took home like 30mil

Plus dudes always in the Bahamas

He should be fired but the board is corrupt

[harsh marlin]

wait till I become ceo in 5 years 🥱

after I complete rizziversity

[river vessel]

Ross to IB pipeline

[ornate moat]

i had a talk with my counselor today (my counselor LOVES UMICH even more so Ross) and she said that ross will help me find internships in nyc during summers is this like actually true?

[river vessel]

Ross prolly one of the only B schools worth $80k a year

[harsh marlin]

lowkey might just hop over to mckinsey instead

[river vessel]

Of course

[high nebula]

for ib?

yes

ross is good

[ornate moat]

bschools as in grad?

[river vessel]

Nah undergrad

[harsh marlin]

yes

[river vessel]

Ross Sets you up for life

[ornate moat]

thats what im truly scared about bcos im like

[harsh marlin]

not as much as wharton or dyson but definitely up there

[ornate moat]

no connections

fgli

[harsh marlin]

the alumni network is also really good at ross

[river vessel]

BC?

BC has loads of connections

[high nebula]

you have to network yourself

like constantly

[ornate moat]

also if i DO get into columbia, my family says take columbia but my counselor says take ross and idk who to take 😭

[river vessel]

Join a bunch of clubs

[high nebula]

if you seriously want ib then start this summer

[high nebula]

lol

[harsh marlin]

columbia.

[ornate moat]

yep i heard

[high nebula]

ross clubs are so hard to get into

[river vessel]

Not hard if ur in Ross

[high nebula]

no

[ornate moat]

OH YES IDK HOW TO DO THAT TBH 😭 😭

[river vessel]

Besides Tamid

That shit hard af

[high nebula]

theyre all hard

[harsh marlin]

columbia is a target school everywhere lmao

[high nebula]

the good ones at least

[ornate moat]

im from nyc, so it should be easier??

[harsh marlin]

just go at that point

[river vessel]

Ross clubs require like 80% of kids to be from Ross tho

[harsh marlin]

tf how

ask fuck david solomon?

[high nebula]

idk if yall understand how fast paced ib is

like

[ornate moat]

i know i need a lot of experience

but like

[high nebula]

the internship for ur junior summer

[ornate moat]

idk how to get that 😭

[high nebula]

you have to apply sophomroe winter

[river vessel]

Nah dude you don’t need to start this summer

😭

[high nebula]

meaning you're applying for an internship 1.5 years later

[harsh marlin]

yeah but no firm is gonna accept you as a prefrosh like cmon

[high nebula]

im not saying get an internship prefrosh

[river vessel]

They only take juniors

[high nebula]

im saying start networking

lol

[harsh marlin]

then tf does this mean

[river vessel]

Don’t listen to him

[high nebula]

i meant in reference to netowrking

[river vessel]

You don’t need to do shit this summer

Just have fun

[ornate moat]

LMAOO

[high nebula]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i extensively looked into it and was considering ib for a while

[ornate moat]

i should try to at least network tho, i met some cool alumni at the ross accepted students reception

[high nebula]

i made a whole schedule

lol

[ornate moat]

most of them were either in consulting or ib, there was one pe kid

[high nebula]

it already happened?

[harsh marlin]

any internship at a real bank as a highschooler is gonna take being jeff bezos' son or sucking off jamie dimon to get in cmon now

[high nebula]

yes

no one is saying you need that

[harsh marlin]

if you really want to network, just use your acceptances tbh

[cerulean wagon]

Kids with good stats and meh ecs get into places all the time

[ornate moat]

its cos im in nyc 😭 so its really easy to gather a bunch of people they accepted and invite them to a place in manhattan

[cerulean wagon]

Obv not with 0 ecs at all

[harsh marlin]

say you got into harvard wharton whatever and then talk to the high riders in your community

[cerulean wagon]

But good gpa is the most important part of the app period

[high nebula]

oh yeah i mean i got an email for the general reception but thats in april

im also near nyc

[ornate moat]

oh i understand that, but the guy sounded very pretentious, which isnt a good first sign as a college applicant

[cerulean wagon]

It's just the kids with 3.95/1520/good but not unique ecs don't make nearly as much noise when they get in

[ornate moat]

cos i have decent stats and meh ecs and got into ross

[ornate moat]

oh it was the ross reception, not general

[carmine lagoon]

i sure hope so

[harsh marlin]

what about good ecs good stats~~ terrible~~ mediocre essays?

[ornate moat]

thats an auto reject

[carmine lagoon]

im already in umich but still hopeful for my last few

[cerulean wagon]

My ecs are fucking dead bro

[ornate moat]

i swear by my life that the reason why i got into ross was because of my essays

[cerulean wagon]

But everything else is good

I think at least

[carmine lagoon]

same

[cerulean wagon]

I hope

[harsh marlin]

did you apply ea

[cerulean wagon]

I go to rural title 1 HS that sends no one out of state

[ornate moat]

yes

[cerulean wagon]

So hopefully I get a break on ecs

[ornate moat]

so did literally everyone in my school

[harsh marlin]

i didn't so im kinda fucked

[ornate moat]

and i have a class of 700+ seniors

[carmine lagoon]

yeah I go to a teeny tiny HS that opened a decade ago

[ornate moat]

itsok you got this i believe

[harsh marlin]

im lowkey just banking on an ivy acceptance atp

[ornate moat]

LOL good luck !!

[harsh marlin]

but my ross essays were very muah

[ornate moat]

oooooh thats a good sign

[dim pumice]

I only like one of my essays 💀

[harsh marlin]

very rough around the edges but very passionate about what I do

[ornate moat]

thats good :O

[carmine lagoon]

I wish I was passionate about my major before deadlines passed lol

[ornate moat]

my why ross essay talked about one of my ecs and i namedropped some courses that looked interesting

[high nebula]

do u go to an nyc magnet?

[ornate moat]

yep

public

nyc

[high nebula]

lol

i think i know which one

[dim pumice]

wait how big are your schools

[harsh marlin]

i just wrote a loveletter about ross and its curriculum method 💀

[dim pumice]

cause mine has almost 4000 kids in total

[harsh marlin]

2100

[high nebula]

mine has 1000

[ornate moat]

which one 🤨

[ornate moat]

around 3000

[high nebula]

bxsci?

or stuy

[ornate moat]

oh the specialized hs

thas crazy

its funny cos no one in stuy got into ross

[cerulean wagon]

Mine is like 600

[high nebula]

wdym

[ornate moat]

the "specialized high schools"

[high nebula]

i thought u said u go to specialized

nvm then

[dim pumice]

nuts

your schools are so tiny

[ornate moat]

well one of our specialized high schools has 6000 kids so

thats something to think about

[dim pumice]

oh whoa that is a lot

[ornate moat]

LOL i only said i went to a magnet school, but that doesnt mean specialized

[ornate moat]

jk its 5880

but still a good amount

[dim pumice]

still a lot of kids lmfao

[ornate moat]

true

[high nebula]

ooo

[ornate moat]

i did see two people at the ross reception from that school though so

[high nebula]

thats a whole ass university

[ornate moat]

LMAOO

thats very true

tbh its probably bigger than like

cooper union tho

[high nebula]

its bigger than fucking dartmouth

💀

[ornate moat]

LOOL

tbh i keep forgetting dartmouth was a thing

why dont we just replace dartmouth with duke

[high nebula]

duke is already better though

[ornate moat]

yea thats why

[high nebula]

so wdym replace

[ornate moat]

get the better D

oh i meant like

for ivies LMAOO

duke is already mistaken for one

[dim pumice]

fair enough duke is a good school

[high nebula]

duke would decline an invite to join the ivy league if actually offered though

[ornate moat]

thats true

it has better sports

[dim pumice]

oh? why?

[high nebula]

the ivy league sucks for sports and duke is known for its mbb

its a p5 team

its not gonna give that up

[dim pumice]

oh I thought the ivy league was a sports league

[ornate moat]

the fact that the ivy league was a sports league to begin with as well 😭

[high nebula]

it is

[dim pumice]

so their sports would be good

[high nebula]

but its ass

nah

[dim pumice]

oh damn

[high nebula]

theyre not even fbs

[ornate moat]

it is but that doesnt mean their sports are good

like umich

[dim pumice]

damn

[ornate moat]

umich sports >>>>> ivy league sports

ann arbor >>>>> most of the places ivy leagues are located in

[dim pumice]

Ithaca 😵‍💫

[high nebula]

wdym i love ithaca new york

/s

[dim pumice]

oh oop

[ornate moat]

sorry but i dont like places where you cant go to fancy restaurants /hj

[high nebula]

tbh my favorite is new haven 😍

[ornate moat]

please be joking

[high nebula]

i love sketchy neighborhoods

[ornate moat]

good.

[dim pumice]

should have applied to uchicago

[ornate moat]

which ivy has the best location

[high nebula]

i did... and was rejected

😭

[dim pumice]

NOOOOO

[ornate moat]

i wanna say columbia cos bias (and please accept me) but definitely columbia

[high nebula]

nah harvard

or princeton

[ornate moat]

well tbh harvard is a close second for me cos boston (even though its technically in cambridge) but i just have something against towns/cities having the same name as the college

also new jersey sucks wtf

sincerely, a new yorker

[high nebula]

princeton's location is like fr beautiful though

im a new yorker too but like

😻

its near both nyc and philly

[ornate moat]

OKAY but like whats beauty when all you can do is stare at it

you cant eat at fancy restaurants

[dim pumice]

who on earth doesn't like beautiful things?

[ornate moat]

philly is like negative points

[high nebula]

yeah

fuck philadelphia

bum ass city

[ornate moat]

OKAY BUT LIKE WHERES THE FOOD IM NOT GONNA EAT THE TREES

sorry im just starving rn

[high nebula]

eating clubs

(:

[dim pumice]

[ornate moat]

LMAO im gonna have a freshmen 25

[dim pumice]

@high nebula wait did you already get into umich?

[high nebula]

yep

[dim pumice]

whooaoaaa

that's nuts 😵‍💫

[high nebula]

15 people from my school got in ea hah

[ornate moat]

really? that seems so high

do you go to a private school?

[high nebula]

my school feeds

public

[ornate moat]

if you dont mind me asking

public??

[dim pumice]

a ton of people got rejected at my school

[ornate moat]

thats crazy

sm people got deferred from my school, even though my school also usually feeds

like a 33% last year, and that was on the lower end

[high nebula]

i think 70/270 applied and 15 already got in

[dim pumice]

that's nuts

[ornate moat]

oh wow

[dim pumice]

when is it my turn 😩

[ornate moat]

i think the majority of my school got deferred, i wanna say around 20 got in? but also accounting for the fact that we have a huge senior class

[ornate moat]

come to nyc and spend all ur money on apartments ez

[high nebula]

LOL

[ornate moat]

wtf how did you find that

[dim pumice]

I live in Cali LMAO

[high nebula]

naviance

[ornate moat]

oh youll be fine

[dim pumice]

money already spent

[ornate moat]

WTF NAVIANCE SHOWS THAT???

[high nebula]

yeah

[ornate moat]

wait was this last year?

[high nebula]

[ornate moat]

[ornate moat]

time to delete

[high nebula]

💀

[ornate moat]

bam

uhh i dont think so

[thick panther]

🧌

[ornate moat]

40% is way too high

HELP

[dim pumice]

[ornate moat]

[thick panther]

bro goes to a feeder

[high nebula]

😵

dude

[thorn leaf]

this is super late but i actually looked up jobs needing math degrees a while back and a bunch of slots machine companies need mathematicians to design their games lol

[dim pumice]

yall what in the world

[thorn leaf]

i just never thought about it before

[high nebula]

how are you not in a specialized at that point

[ornate moat]

i lied i was specialized 😭

[high nebula]

bruh

[dim pumice]

[ornate moat]

[high nebula]

[dim pumice]

New York 🫡

[ornate moat]

REALLY?

i might know them

woahhh

[high nebula]

perhaps

but ur class size is also really big

[ornate moat]

new york, the greatest gap when it comes to education

[dim pumice]

bro and I thought bay area was nuts

[thick panther]

upstate ny ☺️

[ornate moat]

yea 😭 but it also kinda gives me imposter syndrome because literally everyone who got deferred has higher stats and better ecs than me

[high nebula]

specialized ny high schools are the absolute nuttiest

and the other publics nearby

[ornate moat]

bay area IS nuts though

so are some schools in like Massachusetts

[high nebula]

yeah

my friend goes to fucking

andover

💀

[dim pumice]

are these specialized schools private

[high nebula]

no

[ornate moat]

nope

[high nebula]

public but application test based

[dim pumice]

ohhh

[ornate moat]

well

its more test based

[high nebula]

yeah

[ornate moat]

its literally you take a test

[high nebula]

i meant that

oops

[ornate moat]

and they take the highest scores

thats basically it

[thorn leaf]

[dim pumice]

[high nebula]

the best school in the country

[ornate moat]

massachussettts

[thorn leaf]

prestigious boarding school

[pine lantern]

Wait a minute

[dim pumice]

oh shoot

[ornate moat]

tbh i hope my school prepares me well if i do go into a hardcore college

[high nebula]

the tuition is the same as a college

💀

[pine lantern]

The next month will most likely determine, or at least have a significant impact, on the rest of my life

Fuck!

[thick panther]

real

[ornate moat]

like im hearing horror stories from people in hardcore colleges, but like im gonna hope that my school does welli n preparing me

[dim pumice]

ikr the pressure is insane

[high nebula]

inflated

[dim pumice]

I thought brown would be too

[high nebula]

yes

[ornate moat]

well my school helped me learn how to procrastinate and still get the job done

[dim pumice]

preparing you for the real world

[high nebula]

they mentioned brown in their list so i excluded it

[ornate moat]

yea brown has like no gpa and open curriculum

thats crazy

[thick panther]

[harsh marlin]

[ornate moat]

[stray adder]

Bruh those some students mad about axess crashing

[turbid burrow]

highyl unlikely i get enough from mich even if i got in

[ornate moat]

im like still undecided

[high nebula]

ross

[ornate moat]

yea but tbh at least its not the ucs

[high nebula]

is way better than brown

for business

[turbid burrow]

its daddy stanny idc what happened lmao

[harsh marlin]

brown vs what

[high nebula]

umich is better than brown for like everything

[thorn leaf]

what?

[high nebula]

engineering cs business

[stray adder]

Exactly fr

[ornate moat]

ross !!

[dim pumice]

why do UC's feel so unpredictable

[harsh marlin]

what do you want to do

[turbid burrow]

thats tru i jus love michigan cuz my mom went (and prestige yk)

[thorn leaf]

probably because they are

[pine lantern]

I’ll reread this on April 1 after my rejection

[ornate moat]

business

bcos ross

[turbid burrow]

not rly

[ornate moat]

TRUE

[pine lantern]

But Tbf

That stuff exists for every school

[thorn leaf]

coping mechanism 🙏

[turbid burrow]

referencing post

[thorn leaf]

oh i guess i glossed over that part

[pine lantern]

Just look up “[insert college] computer science mental health Reddit”

[thorn leaf]

yeah well it's cs so that makes sense

[ornate moat]

maybe ill make a school x vs y post when i actually do get into the college instead of being optimistic rn

[dim pumice]

I just want to unexist for this month and come back on April 1

[harsh marlin]

only thing brown has over ross is the ivy prestige

so you have to decide for yourself

is the ivy name worth more than ross

[turbid burrow]

i mean i got vt vs uf but like

[ornate moat]

well:

• open curriculum
• ivy
• no gpa
• better school colors (sorry umich)

[turbid burrow]

vt ez

[pine lantern]

Real

[carmine lagoon]

brown also has a different culture

[ornate moat]

^^

[carmine lagoon]

different area

[high nebula]

real

[carmine lagoon]

their culture is specific, most unique of the ivies

imo

[ornate moat]

yepp

the "chill" one

[turbid burrow]

yk someone else said this and i understand cuz if u hvnt researched brown youd think its just another ivy

ivies r all diff

[carmine lagoon]

i go to a school w a very similar culture so I hope it helps me give that vibe

[harsh marlin]

im talking in terms of ib recruiting

[turbid burrow]

brown is for a specific type of student and thats fine

[turbid burrow]

ib?

[harsh marlin]

investment banking

[turbid burrow]

o

[ornate moat]

yea thats true

[turbid burrow]

well thats not my field so

[ornate moat]

ross does have much more connections

[turbid burrow]

ye thats tru

[harsh marlin]

ross outranks brown as a target school, but you could still get in BECAUSE brown is an ivy

[ornate moat]

yepp!! thats why im just thinking of like the vibe of each school

[harsh marlin]

so if you like brown more, it isn't much of a difference for recruiting

[ornate moat]

and which school i might have more fun at

[harsh marlin]

except that ross has more alumni and connections

[ornate moat]

all ivies are target schools in the end

and so is ross

[carmine lagoon]

if I get rejected by brown this yr can I reapply EDI for transfer💀

[dim pumice]

what

[pine lantern]

Birds

[harsh marlin]

yeah, but there are different tiers of targets

[ornate moat]

yea cos you have

[harsh marlin]

and brown is the lowest of the ivies jsyk

[carmine lagoon]

no that’s Cornell

[ornate moat]

hypw, penn columbia, cornell, brown

no cornell dyson is insane

[harsh marlin]

dyson stomps what are talking about

[carmine lagoon]

ohhh for business

i see

nvm

[harsh marlin]

and even non dyson still outranks brown

[carmine lagoon]

i meant in general

[turbid burrow]

lmfao my plan as well

[carmine lagoon]

idk for my personal needs and wants brown is at the top of my list

[harsh marlin]

dartmouth is tied with columbia probs

[dim pumice]

I really don't want to transfer after I get into college I want to get it one and done

[high nebula]

cornell > brown in general

[turbid burrow]

idk y but i always thought of dartmouth as the worst ivy

[ornate moat]

FUCK I FORGOT ABT DARTMOUTH

[pine lantern]

Cookie mining in apes

[ornate moat]

I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT DARTMOTH

[harsh marlin]

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

[turbid burrow]

sumn bout that school rubs me the wrong way

maybe i just dont like green

[ornate moat]

okay but i think columbia > dartmouth simply cos i like columbia more location

[high nebula]

top 16 are targets

[harsh marlin]

notice how washu doesn't even make the list 💀

[turbid burrow]

what ibd stand for

[high nebula]

obv not adjusted for student body size but shows general trends

[high nebula]

invesment banking division

[ornate moat]

this chart is a good starting point but tbh you cannot tell me that brown and stanford are semi targets

[turbid burrow]

real

[high nebula]

yes they are

i mean stanford maybe no

but brown yeah

[turbid burrow]

uva

w

[harsh marlin]

brown is a semi, stanford is an actual target

[carmine lagoon]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i like brown more

so it is the best

[harsh marlin]

just standford grads go into tech not as much ib

[carmine lagoon]

[high nebula]

^

[turbid burrow]

ok well tbh we're kinda arguing across majors lmao

[harsh marlin]

and dartmouth is lower than it should be just because of populatoin

[turbid burrow]

for cs id say brown> for me personally

[ornate moat]

yea i think when it comes to differentiating targets, its much more about prestige of name than like other things

[high nebula]

over stanford?

[ornate moat]

like williams and amherst dont even make the list but they are at least semi-targets

[turbid burrow]

no i meant michigan

lmao

[high nebula]

but michigan has a stronger program (?)

[turbid burrow]

and like a lot of the ivies

[harsh marlin]

williams is def a target

[turbid burrow]

well wen i said me personally im not sure what u understood by it

[harsh marlin]

just its suuuper small

[carmine lagoon]

brown is appealing to me bc of the open curriculum

[harsh marlin]

you'll have to look at percentage by class size to have a more accurate liste

[ornate moat]

yea so like the chart isnt THAT reliable, cos it doesnt account for the fact that not everyone who goes to stanford wants to do ib, but everyone who goes to stern probably does

[high nebula]

oh well if u just like it more then yeah

[carmine lagoon]

im not into rigid majors

[high nebula]

but industry wise its pretty straightforward mich is betetr

[ornate moat]

yep, except for the fact that when you do see that umich is like the bottom of the list simply cos umich has like 30k+ undergrads

[high nebula]

i mean yeah but theres def more recruiting at nyu than stanford

so it evens out

[harsh marlin]

youll have to look at the ross specific stats if they have one

[ornate moat]

true true

[turbid burrow]

well for cs if we're talking money after grad this is brown vs michigan

[ornate moat]

i dont think they have that accounted for in charts you see online, but ik that umich does have around 40% of their class in finance

i think

[turbid burrow]

obv smaller size but median> mean for stats comparison

[ornate moat]

for ross

[high nebula]

but thats mostly because the average brown student is smarter than the avergae mich student

doesnt reflect the program

[turbid burrow]

and the open curriculum opens a lot more doors for me since i hv a few more majors id like to explore without wanting to fully delve into the course

[high nebula]

true

[turbid burrow]

for cs the program means next to 0 at some point

[high nebula]

open curriculum is OP

[turbid burrow]

its about internships and connections

[ornate moat]

yes ^^

[turbid burrow]

youll learn pretty much the same thing anywhere thats t50 for cs

[high nebula]

yeah true

[outer hornet]

I would sell my soul and go to illumanti meetings and sacrifice my blood volume to go to Columbia

[high nebula]

i heard michigan has really nice recruiting though

[turbid burrow]

it does for sure

[high nebula]

faang and all

[ornate moat]

suny stony brook for real

[high nebula]

REAL

[turbid burrow]

saying brown> doesnt mean michigan bad at all

[ornate moat]

SAME.

[high nebula]

my second acceptance

[ornate moat]

i didnt even apply cos business LMAOO

[high nebula]

[turbid burrow]

[turbid burrow]

[outer hornet]

[high nebula]

columbia and brown are polar opposite schools 😭

[outer hornet]

OMG SAME

[ornate moat]

[oblique vortex]

I would look at whats listed in the colleges website. the stuff listed for ivys is much higher than what the ivy advertises itself for some things lol

[outer hornet]

the only school I visited bc it was the only school I ever wanted

[ornate moat]

WE ARE THE SAME PERSON LMFAOOO

[turbid burrow]

i just went with columbia cuz i liked the vibe ngl

[stray adder]

Why did u ed then tf 💀

[turbid burrow]

after research i do like brown more

[outer hornet]

If I don’t get in I’ll actually be so depressed

[outer hornet]

Parents

[high nebula]

hindsight is 20/20

[ornate moat]

one has an open curriculum, and one has the worst core ever

[stray adder]

Ed is too scary in general

[high nebula]

[high nebula]

[turbid burrow]

[ornate moat]

columbia has the prestige too though its not wharton :(

[stray adder]

U miss 100% of the shots u don't take fr

[turbid burrow]

[high nebula]

[ornate moat]

whats the "manhattan dream" to you

[harsh marlin]

actually liked the idea of the core

[high nebula]

manhattan gets old faster than youd think

[harsh marlin]

having access to any ethnic food within a couple minutes

[ornate moat]

cornell's biggest strenght is dyson and engineering 😭 but columbia also has fantastic engineering and a great economics course

[turbid burrow]

real af

[high nebula]

real

[ornate moat]

thats not manhattan though tbh 😭

[high nebula]

true

[ornate moat]

thats more queens

[stray adder]

I'm paying less at Stanford than at UW I'm pretty sure 💀so nah don't matter to me but I'm tryna find out tho

[turbid burrow]

cornell engineering is amazing

[harsh marlin]

i grew up here for a bit before i moved

[high nebula]

[ornate moat]

[turbid burrow]

atp i jus want one reach

[ornate moat]

[turbid burrow]
