The University Of Michigan Students Share The Most Unexpected Places Someone Has Yelled 'Go Blue'
Rachel Mount

If I'm wearing anything Michigan related (which I'm not going to lie, is basically 90% of my life) there's almost a guarantee that someone, somewhere will show their excitement through the much loved "go blue" shoutout.

1. Precipice Trail, Arcadia National Park

Yep, as we were on a nearly vertical cliff passage, a shout from below got our attention - and of course, we sent the love right back.

2. Merida, Mexico

I was volunteering at an animal shelter that is definitely not considered tourist territory, yet one day walking from my hostel to the shelter someone out a car window yelled "go blue."

3. Teacup Ride, Disney World

I couldn't believe it, I honestly think it saved me from throwing up out of nausea because I was so caught off guard.

4. Kayaking, Pictured Rocks MI

We were on the water where there were maybe 5 or 6 people in boats passing us every half hour. Still, an older gentleman yelled from his canoe "go blue" a distance away.

5. Going in for surgery, Miami FL

I had to get my appendix out, and who would have thought my surgeon was a die hard Michigan fan.

6. Rome, Italy

We were in a tiny bread shop, and I was sporting my favorite Michigan cap. Someone tapped me on the shoulder and said "I like your taste in hats" and was basically wearing the same one.

7. Columbus, OH

Funny right? I was in line at a sub shop and someone hollered "go blue" across the restaurant - I'm surprised we made it out alive.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
