Thank you, 2016
Jack Rooney | Wednesday, November 30, 2016
It’s been a really bad year. At times, 2016 has been incredible, but all things considered, it’s just been bad. Never in my 21 and a half years has a period of time been so filled with such joyous highs and crushing lows. There has been lots to be happy about: graduation, an enriching summer
