The Keto diet is one that has been slowly creeping up over the past few years. In short, the Keto diet involves cutting out carbs, bumping up healthy fats, and eating moderate protein. A Keto meal would not include rice/pasta/other foods heavy in carbs but would have meat, fish, and non-starchy vegetables. The Keto diet also puts a limit on the amount of sugar, meaning dieters can't have too much fruit or desserts.

Right now, it's hard to follow the Keto diet. Shops are labeling foods that are gluten-free, vegan, and organic, but they are only now starting to label those that are Keto friendly.

The Keto diet has a ton of health benefits. Since the diet cuts out carbs, the body needs to use other resources for energy, so it will burn fat - this phase is called Ketosis.

The diet is new, but more and more people are switching to the Keto diet and realizing amazing weight losses. The Keto diet is popularly used in combination with intermittent fasting for weight loss using a sustainable lifestyle.

Part of the reason the Keto diet will blow up in the foreseeable future is the imminent end of Veganism's popularity. Veganism had a long run, but only blew up a few years ago, and isn't necessarily more than a fad diet.

Particularly, the greater development of lab-grown meat may eventually displace Vegans who are Vegan to avoid hurting animals. Only a few years ago, a lab-grown patty was thousands of dollars. Now, it is under $20 and getting lower in cost every day.

Once lab-grown meat is commercially available, it could remove the need for huge slaughterhouses, killing animals, and use of thousands of acres of land. As no animals die for lab-grown meat, Veganism would greatly fall in popularity. People would begin looking at alternative diets, which has Keto at its forefront.

The past and present may be about Veganism and healthy, meat-less eating, but I see the future to be about Keto, fat-burning with meat and grit required.

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!
