12 Signs It's Red Sox Season In New England

Boston Magazine

In New England, we take our baseball very seriously just like the rest of our sports. Whether the Rex Sox are having a good or bad season, you can bet Fenway Park will be packed with beloved fans. Rex Sox season is the best because of everything that comes along with it, now New England lets play some ball!

1. The weather finally starts to get warmer.

The best weather is in the spring when it just starts to get warm out, thats when you know baseball season is here.

2. Baseball hats start to come back into fashion.

There is nothing better than freshly cut green grass and newly painted lines on a baseball field, especially Fenway.

4. Red Sox apparel starts to come back into stores.

Fresh new apparel is finally out with the new players and old players last names and numbers.

5. The lyrics to Sweet Caroline hype anyone up for a game.

Neil Diamond you have the heart of us New Englanders, thanks for making our 7th inning stretch "So good, so good, so good!"

6. Jordan's Furniture offers to pay for your furniture.

The only time we hear Jordan's Furniture commercials are when the new deal comes out regarding the Red Sox.

7. You can't turn on the TV without hearing something about the Red Sox.

Whether it's a fan getting hit with a broken baseball bat, or another player hitting a home run, the Red Sox always seem to be on the news.

8. Every Dunkin' Donuts commercial features a player.

Big Papi I don't think we will ever get sick of seeing you on Dunkin' commercials every baseball season.

9. The phrase "Yankees suck" is brought back.

The Yankees will forever suck without a doubt in a New Englanders mind, the Red Sox will always be better no matter what.

10. Yawkey way has life again.

Yawkey Way in the winter is so deserted but as soon as it hit's baseball season, Yawkey Way is finally so packed again you can't even walk.

11. The smell of Fenway Franks can be smelt all throughout Boston.

What would Fenway be without the beloved Fenway Franks, it's the main reason some people go to Fenway Park.

12. Fenway Park is packed again with fans ready to watch some baseball.

Seeing Fenway Park packed with fans again means it's baseball season again, time to find the best deals on seats.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
