hey guys! so i had some trouble with this thing...mostly because i forgot like 4 passwords i made. oh well. i wrote it down now so we're clear. so summer has been busy already. i was in florida for a week just hanging out enjoying the weather and then i just got back from colorado. my cousin got married on the side of a mountain out there...it was amazing. we went white water rafting and hiking and enjoyed the mountains. it was a great trip! im not working until june, which is awesome, so im just hanging out and relaxing :)

I did get a chance to volunteer a few saturdays ago. my dad is the jersey chair of the arthritis foundation and they do a walk on the Cooper River (right near my high school) every year. I volunteered there, doing anything from setting up, registration, face painting and walking four miles with some kids who have juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. I had no idea how much arthritis affected young people, especially children. These kids were all less than 9 years old and already had survivor stories to tell. They were pretty incredible and i loved spending a few hours with them. Later this summer I'm looking to work on Habitat around here through a program I know. Anyone in the Philly area want to join in let me know!

Hope you guys are all having great summers! Keep in touch

wow this blog has really taken off. i have to check several times a day to keep up with all of the new posts. it is quite confusing to navigate around thought. oh well. Anyway, i have just returned from london, as Fr. John mentioned in his latest post. I don't know what his deal is suggesting that there is something going on between me and mary carney. That has no basis in fact, she just wishes that it did. Needless to say, london was awesome. I was supposed to meet up with our buddy Colin at this club called The ZOO. But i decided to go into the bar next door because it didn't have a cover, which turned out to be a gay bar. It was called "Fudge". Apparently i missed that on the way in. So, i missed out on seeing Colin, but i did manage to see Harry Potter naked in "Equus". I wasn't impressed. Not really a big deal...if you catch my drift. Hermione was in not the play :(.

I hope everyone is having a blast so far this summer. If anyone wants to invite me to their shore house, that'd be great. If anyone invites me to cleveland i'm not coming cause cleveland sucks. If anyone wants to chill this summer, we certainly can...assuming i have nothing better to do. Alright i gotta peace. More posts to come shortly.

Hello everyone!

Sorry it took me so long to log onto the blog, there were some technical difficulties involved. basically that means that i had to use the computer. and that usually doesn't end up well.

anyways, i hope everyone's summer is going well, i know i've been busy but it's been good so far. I had a wedding to go to as well but other than that just a lot of work. I've actually not had time to do any volunteer work yet, but i just talked to someone and i'm going to be going to a soup kitchen to serve lunches in Bridgeport on Mondays. I've actually never been to the site, but i'm looking forward to going. Bridgeport actually reminds me a lot of Baltimore. So we'll see :)

I'm not exactly sure how to use this blog either, hopefully i'm doing this right, but i can't wait to hear from everyone, i miss you all!

love, alicia

Hey guys,

I have no idea how to navigate this operation. I just returned this week from Los Angeles, where I spent the BEST week with friends from LMU -- and celebrating a wedding (I was the priest) -- and just enjoying everything I loved out there. I am heading to the beach with family for Memorial Day weekend today, and that should be fun. I have been working on the sophomore retreat and a bunch of weddings I have this summer -- and one baptism.

I miss seeing you guys all the time -- and the campus is empty. Even Frs. Ruff and the Chuckster, SJ are away giving a retreat. How is everyone's summer going? I know Pat is in London (tho I am not sure London is ready for Tobler!?!). Did Mary Carney go with him?

Let me hear from you guys and all my Magis guys were very interested in Ad Maiorem and asked me lots of questions. God bless. love, FJ

Hey guys, hope everyone's summer is going well. Here's our blog. Once you've signed up and become an author you can post what you want. I think we said that we wanted people to at least check this once a week to see what's going on with other people and add comments.

Thanks a lot,
Matt
