With Father's Day coming up, I wanted to write a shout out to my dad to make sure he knows how awesome he is. My dad has three daughters, including myself. Raising girls is a challenge, but he handles it like a pro. He's always been a rock in my life, and I appreciate him so much. Here are just a couple of reasons why my dad is basically a superhero.

1. He is a guy that knows how to do hair!

My sisters lost their mother a few years back, and this left my dad to do all the girly things for them. For example, he learned how to do ponytails, pigtails and even some braids! #realman

2. He's full of dad humor.

Though his humor is sometimes corny, I still enjoy it just the same.

3. He's a hard worker, through and through.

My father is the type of guy who is willing to work for what he has. He doesn't expect any handouts or charity. He works hard and rough. Everything he has he bought himself and deserves.

4. He is a real protector.

Any time a boy/anyone has upset me, my dad has always been there ready to beat them up or just listen. He is always looking out for my best interests, and I love him for that.

5. He always makes sure I have everything I need.

Whether it be a helping hand, twenty bucks, or just someone to listen, he is always around. He has been there for me for my entire life. #bestdad

6. He tells me how it is, always.

Dad advice is the best advice. You might not think that way when you're young, but they know everything. They always want what's best for you.

7. He loves me unconditionally.

My dad is my champion. He has never left me to wonder if he cared. He takes care of me and loves me despite my many flaws and annoying qualities. I am one lucky daughter.

My dad is so awesome for so many more reasons than these. It takes a real man to be a father, and he has proven himself time and again. I love him forever, and I'll always be his girl. I hope this Father's Day is spent showing your father/man in your life how special they are. I love you dad! <3

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
