Hello Readers!
It has been a great week here at Albertus Magnus College! On Monday November 18th, the "Black Jew Dialogues" were here. These guys were so funny. The two gentleman's names that came to Albertus were Ron and Larry. The overall point of the show was to create awareness about people that have different cultural backgrounds. They performed a variety of skits about different ethnicities and how other people acted towards them because of what their cultural background was. While they were doing this skits, they of course made it extremely funny. When I was watching this, I felt as if I were watching a television show. They were true professionals! I had a great time and I hope everyone else had a great time as well.
On Friday November 22nd, there was one of my favorite Albertus@Night events, "Deep FRYday." I love this event because of the great food that is there. There were Fried Dough, French Fries, Onion Rings and Fried Oreos, the Fried Oreos being my favorite. It was delicious food and it was extremely fresh. They cooked everything right in front of you! There was also a great turn out by all of the students that were there.
It is also exciting that next Thursday is Thanksgiving! Albertus students have off Thanksgiving Day all the way until Sunday. On Monday we continue our classes until December when finals happen. I cannot believe that this semester is almost over!

Happy Sunday!
Hello Readers!
Today is Sunday! This week was an extremely hectic week! I have been busy with being an RA, being a tour guide and also being a work study in the Admissions Office. Yesterday November 9th, Albertus Magnus College hosted an Open House for undergraduate prospective students. It was a great turn out! Many students came with their families and went out on tour. I spoke with many students and they told me they were excited about applying to Albertus. They were very excited about their senior year but most of the students I spoke to just want to be in college already. The Admissions staff led by Director of Admissions, Nilvio Perez, did a fantastic job orchestrating the event. Mr. Perez and the admissions team worked very hard to make this a successful event!
Today was a big football day to be a New Yorker, the New York Football Giants finally won a game! It was too close of a game because Eli Manning and the Giants should be doing better than they have been doing so far this year, especially against the Oakland Raiders. The New York Jets had a bye week but I am looking forward to their game against the Buffalo Bills next Sunday. Hopefully Geno Smith can keep doing what he is doing and help lead the Jets into the playoffs.

Albertus' Open House!
Hello Readers!
It is almost the weekend! This has been another crazy week. Since I work as a work study in the Admissions office, I have been helping the counselors and staff put together the materials needed for Open House, which is taking place on Saturday November 9, 2013. Open House is for all prospective students that are considering Albertus Magnus College as a college to attend after high school. It is always great to be able to talk to all of these prospective students about what they would be interested in studying here at Albertus. Also, since I am a tour guide, I will also be extremely busy giving tours and showing people their way around our beautiful campus. The Student Alumni Association will also have an informational table discussing the various activities it takes part in.
I am extremely close to obtaining an internship, which is very exciting! I have been working with Melissa DeLucia who is the Director of Experiential Learning and the Center of Teaching and Learning Excellence, to find me an internship somewhere in the New Haven area. This has been a great experience for me for two reasons. One way this has been a great experience for me is because I had the opportunity to create a resume. It was important for me to create a resume for other future jobs that I apply to. This was a great starting point to do one. Another reason why this is a great experience is because I am getting very excited about graduating and going to law school to become a lawyer. The internship process has made me realize that my time at Albertus is passing by quickly!

A Great Weekend!
Hello Everyone!
I had such a busy weekend! My beautiful girlfriend came to visit me here at school. On Friday we went to the movies at North Haven Cinemas and saw Captain Phillips. It was a sensational film. It was a fantastic movie that was based on a true story. It made me proud to be an American! We also went to Celestino's Restaurant and Pizza for dinner. This restaurant is owned by one of my greatest and best friends, Arber Mehmedi who is a student here at Albertus. Arber is the head waiter there. He also helps cook, which is really cool because all of the food he makes is delicious! My girlfriend and I both ordered Chicken Francaise. It was out of this world! I highly recommend going therefor either lunch or dinner.
On Saturday, November 2nd, A group of RA's hosted an Albertus@Night event in the pub. The event was a series of obstacles. The first, second and third place winners each won a cash prize. Some of the obstacles were that you had to do push-ups, sit-ups, throw a wiffle ball into a bucket, and you had to pick 3 pairs of matching cards off of a table. It was very fun to see the contestants participate in this event. I had a lot of fun observing and helping set up and clean up.
