If you attend Michigan State University and you don't live in the state of Michigan, these will definitely apply to you.
1. When someone raises their hand and points to a place on their palm to show you where in Michigan they're from, you have to pretend to know exactly where their town is…and also resist the urge to high-five them.
2. Biggby Coffee seems completely irrelevant due to the fact that there are multiple Starbucks on campus.
3. Whenever you walk into a room or a frat, you don’t automatically recognize your entire high school like your in-state friends do.
4. The “my family bleeds green” rarely applies to you.
5. You get asked, “Well why did you choose State?” at least 10 times a day.
6. You have never been to a Cider Mill, and your friends will never let you hear the end of it.
7. You don’t get to go home whenever you want because you're not an hour away from your house…you actually require a plane, bus, or train to get back home.
8. When people first warned you about MIP’s, you thought they were a type of STD. But now, you make sure you keep your composure whenever you see a Michigan State Police car roll by.
9. And finally, you love to represent your school in your hometown as much as you can, because now, we all bleed green.
In-Stater's definitely rule this campus, so stick together Out-Of-Staters and maybe one day when someone tells us where they live on their palm, we'll actually know where it is.
