Ice Cream Barn. Just hearing that name means it's Summer time here in Southern Massachusetts. If you ask anyone what part of the Summer is their favorite, they will undoubtedly answer the Ice Cream Barn. It opened on September 9, 2012, and although only in its fourth year, it is the trade mark of Southern New England summer. Ellie, another writer for The Odyssey, mentions it in her article "9 Signs You're From Swansea, MA" as a staple of her summer routine.

It started as the idea of three people; Tom and Jocelyn Seiter were two people who had been selling homemade ice cream with locally made ingredients to farmers markets for years, and Kenny Baker, who owned Baker's Farm, wanted to have an ice cream parlor on his six generation farm. And on September 9, those dreams were all realized.

Most nights during the Summer, you will undoubtedly see lines stretching out the door to be able to get in and taste those delicious fresh made flavors and smell the homemade waffle cones. One of my favorite parts of Ice Cream Barn is that they have glass windows around part of the counter area where you can watch them make the waffle cones from scratch and pour gooey hot fudge over the ice cream.

Although barely four years old, Ice Cream Barn had quickly become a staple of a Southern Massachusetts summer. With the ease to get there and the homey atmosphere inside, you can't help but know that Summer is here and ready to start.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
