Now that the warm weather is finally upon us and there is not any snow in the forecast for hopefully another five months at least, it is time to start soaking up the warm weather and all of the perks that come along with it. Swimming, boating, trying to get a nice tan, barbecuing, and spending a lot of time with friends and family are some of the many reasons we love summer. However, for me, my love for warm weather coincides with one major benefactor of the summer season, and that is the plethora of ice cream available in this season.

There are countless reasons on why one should have a healthy diet of ice cream; the obvious such as it tastes great, its can cool you down and it is a way better than cake or cookies. But there is more than just that to ice cream, and that is what I will share with you in the next few hundred words. So, make sure to eat your ice cream this summer.

The ice cream business is one that is most certainly on the rise, there are thousands of ice cream stands across America serving soft, hard, and any other form of ice cream that may be in between such as frozen yogurt or custard or dole whip or even Italian ice. These may not be ice cream in particular, but sold at ice cream stands nonetheless, so we will classify it with normal hard or soft ice cream. With ice cream in it;s many forms comes a lot of competition. I know I always keep in mind how good ice cream is from a certain place and the better the ice cream, the more likely I will return there again. Customer service and price also goes into how great the ice cream tastes. If the ice cream is cheap, served with a smile and is delicious then that would be a perfect trip. Most times you can't get all three of those scenarios, but if you do, let me know where to go!

With ice cream being a competitive business in a lot of places, it is an industry that is also adapting and businesses are constantly looking how to become the best at what they do when it comes to a delicious frozen treat! So that is great news for us, the customer, and yet another reason why you should eat ice cream. Today, at most places you can always find chocolate, vanilla, and twist. But at many places, there have been adaptations made to create a countless number of new flavors. This has even made grocery stores expand their ice cream selection due to the dozens of flavors. You may find bacon ice cream, peanut butter ice cream, Fruit Loop ice cream, Pop Rock ice cream, and many more. So, we no longer have to settle for the usual which is a major reason on why you should eat more ice cream, try every flavor you can and don't feel any shame for it.

Hopefully the past 500 words or so has coerced you to eat more ice cream this summer because in my opinion there is not a better dessert out there. If I have yet to sway you to eat more ice cream, remember, it is a comfort food and can also help you relieve stress and feel better. So, without further contemplation, get on your bike or in your car and go get a tasty frozen treat. Throw on some sprinkles, you deserve it!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
