Ym Advises Dear 2020, “You sucked in ways I didn’t know were possible, but you also brought me closer to both myself and many others in my life.”—Jess Ferguson, Co-Copy Chief “This has both been one of the best and one of the worst years of my life, and I guess that’s how it goes. I can only hope that I learned something along the way, through all the hurt and pain and stress, that somehow it was all worth it. I’m still waiting on that.” —Lillian Cohen, Editor in Chief “Man what the hell, why’d you have to go as hard as you did?”—Katie Powers, Co-Head Proofreader “In 2020, I turned 20 and also got my first gray hair. But despite the shitshow, I learned how to find silver linings (pun intended).”—Olivia Cigliano, Style Editor “TBH, we started out as friends, but now you’re just acting differently. Rate 4/10.”—MaryCatherine Neal, Living Editor “You felt like a strange fever dream, and I really hope I wake up in 2021 and don’t remember. See ya!”—Emily King, Photography Director
