Exploring New Things

Have you ever been to a Yankee or a Met game? Have you ever been on a subway alone before with your friends with no adults! Its a totaly new experience when we grow up because we might have not have been able to do these things when we were younger. Noticing how as i grow things are becoming more and more different, i can see that the world is huge and i haven't even seen a tenth of it. The world is so big and i want to explore more of it. Believe it or not yesturday was the first day i went to a New York Met game with one of my friends. We drove to his uncles house and then from there we took the trains! I haven't really taken the trains in my life, maybe around five or six times in fact! I was always driven to places and never got to do many things like this, but i can tell its just a part of growing up and learning new things. Well, we started walking to the train, picked up a metro card, got on the train and were on our way. We had to take two trains, we started off on the F train near Prospect park and had to go about 15 stops to catch the 7 train near 42St. and Grand Central. It was so confusing because we really didn't know were we were going. We had to take the 7 train nineteen stops to Shea Stadium and then we were there it was such a long and pretty fun ride. we got to the gates and had an extra four tickets and were trying to sell them but couldn't find anyone interested, but it was okay we got the tickets for free anyway. We stayed at the game until the seventh inning and during the whole game we kept changing our seats going lower and lower. We sat right behind home plate on the second level, we were so close. after, we left and on the way back to the train and took it home. It was a great experience and would like to do it more and more so i can learn more new things, maybe even go to the New York City and do somethings there.
