Michael Lin

Welcome to, "A Guide to Michael Lin: Limited Edition!"

Instructions for assembly are below.* If you are struggling to operate this Taiwan-imported enigma or are seeking to better understand his complexities, you are in the right place.

Please open the package labelled "Fragile." Keep all contents inside–his extrovertedness will try to escape. You have completed the first step.

Step Two: Spice the contents with authenticity, dedication, and ambition. Mix well.

Step Three: Slowly whisk in Beyoncé CDs and French Macaron recipes. If you whisk all of them at once, your Michael will not be productive.

Step Four: After you have thoroughly incorporated his guilty pleasures, cover and shake the package with the "Macarena" playing in the background. Beware: you have introduced Michael to dancing.

Step Five: Lift the cover and sprinkle membership to Project LEAD, Model United Nations, and Student Government. Let these passions bloom for four years. Two years in, garnish with National Honor Society.

Step Six: Line the package with international relations, biology, and business. Finely dice and mix in questions: be generous with this.

Step Seven: Wrap the package with intellectual curiosity and let the contents brew. Watch as your Michael Lin rises.

Step Eight: Dress him with a pair of bright green Crocs.

Voila! Enjoy your very own Michael Lin. Please do not eat him as he is not edible. Give him special care and feed him four times a day. Acceptable consumables includes books, sushi, Netflix, and pho. Allow him lots of time to interact with other humans and cultivate in a collaborative learning environment.

*No returns. Please.
