As I said in my previous blog I mentioned I was going to a Red Sox game. I did indeed go last night and it was thrilling. Looking forward to it all day I couldn't wait for the moment when I was actually there, in the stands cheering them on. That was the only thing I was thinking of all day and I could barley concentrate on school work. The moment finally came when the school bell rang and I rushed home to get ready for the long cold night ahead of me. Since my mom was working I had to meet her and then we dropped off one of the cars off at her work. We left pretty early around 4:30 thinking we would have enough time since the game didn't start untill seven. Surely enough we misjudged it and got stuck in a bunch of traffic going into boston. No parking places on the side of the road what so ever and every parking lot was forty dollars or more for the game. It was ridiculous how much it was. We literally drove around for a half hour trying to find the cheapest place. We stumble across a thirty five dollar lot and immediately park there, good walking distance to the stadium.
Finally parked and settled we head out to the park, just in time for the start. We grabbed our seats on the third base side and went to get food. We came back and then decided we wanted closer seats so my mom and I snagged some seats behind the plate, we were probably there for two innings. The ticket owners finally came and kicked us back to our original seats. It was a nice try though. The first at bat for the sox Pedroia is up and slams a home run to start it off. We were all amazed and surprised that it happened so early in the game. Another great thing that happened was the weather, it turned out to not be as cold as we thought. Bringing winter coats, gloves, and Uggs I prepared for the worst. Ended up a comfortable degree with all the body warmth. In conclusion my experience was totally fun even though they lost to the Orioles.

A Sneak Peak into Bedford Volleyball
Bedford
volleyball is going for the gold this year after their first season in division
I last year. The bulldogs came into the season last year with
predictions to not pose a big threat with very little expectations and to lose a
majority of their season. But, after the intimidating season last year
placing the bulldogs in ninth place out of twenty teams left the Bedford team
expected to be a great competitor this year.
The
Bulldogs although a young team last year with the starting squad being composed
of mostly juniors is back this year to make a statement with the starting team
returning as championship hungry seniors. The Bulldogs being led
this year by team captains Becca Foti and Julia Elmendorf have many tricks up
their sleeves to completely throw other teams off their game. With the
debut into the 2013 season game against Nashua North Hannah Koehler, the
starting senior middle blocker, hit her way to 24 kills which is an absolutely
ridiculous amount and stunned Nashua North. But no team can have a good
offense without a good defense, which shows the true value of the Bulldogs back
row players composed of the libero Chandler Lake and the outsides Becca Foti,
and Kendal Sonovick who had an astonishing 27 digs in the past game. The
Bulldogs have started off their season proving to be a true fighting competitor
stacked with skilled and tough players eager for the win.
Bedford
will not go down without a fight this year are capable of
being a championship winning team. The Bulldogs time and time again have
shown to be relentless when facing tough competition and rowdy fans rooting
against them. Although with a loss in the first game of the 2013 season
Bedford proved to be an intense competitor while taking the match to five sets
and fighting for every point. The bulldogs will push to have a home seed
in playoffs this year and take their season to the top with the hopes of a
championship banner hanging in their home gym.

Great season
The boston Red Sox have had an amazing season from coming back from many games. last year they didn't do as hot. This year they have so many new players and actually work as team. The whole season has been pretty much wining which is why their in first place place right now. With Tampa trailing not too far behind by 9 1/2 games and they have 15 games left in the season. The team is so much more exciting now and I cant ever miss a game on the t.v. last night they played the Rays and it was still tied in the 10th inning. Bases were loaded for the sox and Mike Carp gets up to the plate. This is game changer with what ever happens at the plate. And all of a sudden boom the tiny ball gets crushed and he gets a walk off grand slam to lead the sox for the win. It was a perfect end to the battling game, and defiantly was a must win game. I went to a home game awhile ago and they actually played Tampa and ended up winning by a lot. Going to Fenway and experience the game live is one of the best feelings. I love the Adrelinine rush while there in the crowd. There are so many different types of people and it is whole new culture almost.
Walking into the stadium is such a great feeling, its like walking down a lane of history. Many amazing things happened right at this park. I got my ticket out and they punched it and gave it back, I still have the ticket in my room. Yawkey way is where there are vendors are selling clothes and gift shops all along it and is the entrance into the magnificent park. I grabbed my Fenway frank and headed to our seats. They were perfect pretty much right on the third base line. Exactly where I wanted them. The whole entire game I kept trying to not think of the game being over because I loved it so much there. The game finally ended and they came out with a win, I forgot the score though. Of coarse I took many of pictures to capture the moments of every play and the stadium itself. I absolutely love going to games and in fact I'm even going to game next week against the Orioles. I hope to give an update after I go to that one too and hopefully I'm a good luck charm so they win.
