Things are a lot different than playing in the minor league system. I had to recently pack my belongings and move from Portland to Philadelphia. Things are totally different for sure. Portland had been my home for the past two years and it has been what I know. I know the streets, I know where all the entertainment is and it's been peaceful. I hear Philadelphia is so full of life and it's not as quiet of a city as Portland is. Things won't be the same but it seems like everything will be alright. I know that I will be playing with new teammates and I know there are a handful of other rookies on the team too. I will have to start mapping out my routes to work and other places but I think I will start to enjoy Philadelphia a lot more once I get used to it. I know Portland was like that before I moved out there but I caught on quickly and it was amazing. One of the things that I am excited about is actually being able to eat a Philly cheese steak. Like not your average one but one in the actual city of Philadelphia. There are other foods that I want to try but that is definitely on my bucket list.
