Whether one is seven or ninety-seven, the world is meant to be seen. Therefore, traveling is an essential part of living to the fullest. It fosters open-mindedness, creativity and so much more. Traveling is truly worthwhile.

1. It opens one's mind

Every country, state, or sometimes even city has its own quirks and beliefs. Therefore traveling will help expose one to these various views, races, ethnicity, and cultures.

2. It aids with stress relief

Sometimes traveling to a new and distant place far away from home and all one's responsibilities and troubles, aids in calming one's mind. Traveling sometimes helps one to feel physically and mentally more in control.

3. It occasionally provides delicious food

Traveling always comes with trying unique foods from the local places. Make sure to always have yelp handy in order to figure out which restaurants are wonderful and which are not worth it.

4. It allows bonding time

If one is not traveling by themselves, it allows one to bond thoroughly with their companions and sometimes make new friends along the way.

5. It provides education, relaxation, and adventure

One can spend their time at museums and ancient ruins, one can lounge on the beach for hours on end, or one can scuba dive, para-sail, and jet-ski.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
