Cause we're supposed to make a presentation to the director of the MICA tomorrow, in which we'll have a throwdown of sorts regarding various issues, I decided that I shall attempt to help future students who might be coming to MICA by making a guide, whether I actually go through with this or if it's one of my many undeveloped ideas lying around the computer, I don't know at this point, but I think I've got a few chapters to discuss already.
