10 Times One Tree Hill Understood Your Feelings
The Funny Project

One Tree Hill is notorious for leaving its viewers with quotes to digest that touch upon life, love and loss. Every One Tree Hill fan has their own personal favorite quote from the show that touched and understood them in a personal way. Here are some of my personal favorites.

1. “Stepping up. It’s a simple concept. It basically means to rise above yourself; to do a little more, to show you something special…Life’s funny sometimes; it can push pretty hard like when you fall in love with someone but they forget to love you back, like when your best friend and your boyfriend leave you alone, like when you pull the trigger or light the flame and you can’t take it back. Like I said, in sports they call this ‘stepping up.’ In life, I call it ‘pushing back.’” –Nathan Scott


2. “The important thing is not to be bitter over life’s disappointments. Learn to let go of the past. And recognize that every day won’t be sunny and when you find you find yourself lost in the darkness and despair, remember it’s only in the black of night you see the stars. And those stars will lead you back home.” -Coach Whitey Durham

3. “You’ve got to grab every second you have with the people you love.” –Peyton Sawyer

4. “And once you lose yourself, you have two choices. Find the person you used to be, or lose that person completely.” –Brooke Davis

5. “Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No. I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure you’re still alive. Because you are. And that pain you feel? That’s life. The confusion and fear? That’s there to remind you that somewhere out there is something better, and that something is worth fighting for.” –Nathan Scott

6. “Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who's struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied at barely getting by. But, that feeling is a lie and if you just hold on; just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find the way and make it all okay.” –Lucas Scott

7. “It’s the oldest story in the world. One day you’re seventeen and planning for someday, and then quietly, without you ever really noticing, someday is today, and that someday is yesterday and this is your life.” –Nathan Scott

8. “Most of the time, the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you'll get everything you wished for. Maybe, you'll get more than you ever could've imagined. Who knows where life will take you, the road is long, and in the end... the journey is the destination.” –Coach Whitey Durham

9. “Happiness comes in many forms...in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be…” –Lucas Scott

10. “Being afraid is okay. But if you don't work through that fear, you might miss out on some pretty great things…” –Nathan Scott

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
