Final Project
After completing my final project, it became very clear to me how hockey is changing. The style that kids are being taught seems to be different than what I had learned. The ever changing equipment and technology is creating rapid changes in what you can and cannot do. Skates are lighter, sticks are almost weightless, helmets are better than ever, and the rules are promoting safe play in all leagues. This was a great topic for me to write about and I am really glad that I had decided to pick this for my final project.

Final paper Example
I noticed many different things that can help me out after reading the Final paper example about the bowling alley. The writer took out, added, and rearranged the different parts and put them in an order to make the paper easier to read. It was put in such a way that the order in which the papers one through three isn't relevent and it is just organized to make the most sense to the reader. At the end of the paper the writer includes a paragraph where it describes what the bowling alley is all about, which is coming together. I think that at the end of the paper is the best part to place a final analysis of the subject.

Project Site
I know many things about my project site which I decided to pick Fenway Park and the area around the park. I knew just about everything around the place where to park, which gate to go in, where the shortest lines are and so on. I haven't been to a game at fenway since the 09' season, in fact, it was the game in september against the Anaheim Angels when the Redsox rallyed in the ninth inning and shortstop Alex Gonzalez, now with the Atlanta Braves. Fenway Park is probably my favorite place to be in Boston and I think that it would be the perfect spot for me to write about and research.
I have been to many Redsox games in my life but it has been quite a while since I have been to the park and checked out the surrounding areas. Since John Henry and Tom Werner bought the team in 2002, Fenway has underwent major changes to both the team and the park. I would like to go check out what changes they have made in the last couple of years. I know it will be very hard for me to get into the park until the season starts, but Im confindent I will be able to find out and research on work done this year. Also, I'm interested in checking out what the have done with Yawkey Way which has been renovated and the street has actually became part of the park because they shut it down during the game.

1.
After reading the story its very clear that the writer went to the bowling alley often in their childhood and wanted to go and see how it was years later. The writer was very descriptive when discussing the bowling alley from the snack bar to the people working there. The writer is looking to go back to the site and check it out on a saturday night to see if it still a hangout for teenagers like it had been in the past. The writer would like to see if the place has updated to electronic scoring and to see if the same people who worked there years ago still do today.
