And it definitely was.<\/p>\n<p>Each summer for the past couple of years I go to a music festival called Warped Tour, and I always make a playlist to get myself excited for going, so here is the playlist that I made from 2016.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.spotify.com\/?uri=spotify%3Auser%3A1236372670%3Aplaylist%3A0Jhw4VZsYAGzUpvq3ybWIi\" width=\"300\" height=\"380\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I was in high school I spent the majority of my time either at school or working a part time job.
