10 Times We Were (And Still Are) Peyton Sawyer

Admit it.

10 Times We Were (And Still Are) Peyton Sawyer

Alright, "One Tree Hill" fans, let's talk about our love-hate relationship with Peyton Sawyer. Some of us saw Peyton as the whiny, close-minded character in season one. Remember the girl who stayed in her closet all day, dated the biggest jerk in Tree Hill, and was possibly the most negative person in the world? Yeah, her negativity was always a little annoying, but she had good reason. Underneath it all, Peyton was an independent and compassionate girl that may have been just a little misunderstood. Let's face it: We've all been her at some point in our lives.

1. When you caught your best friend flirting with your dream guy.

It's happened to the best of us. We have all had that secret crush on a really hot guy, only to find out our best friend has a thing for him too. And of course we can't all be Brooke Davis.

2. And then you had to help her get over it when your dream guy broke her heart.

Whether you like it or not, friends come first. If you're a real friend, you'll put the guys aside and support your best friend.

3. So eventually, you became an independent woman that didn't need a man.

We've all been here. Soon another guy will come around and you probably will need a man, but for now, this works.

4. When everybody you were close to left.

Peyton may have had it the worst out of all of us by losing her stepmom, then her real mom, her potential boyfriend, and many, many more, but she still kept it together. Everybody feels alone at some point, and everybody thinks it's their fault. Thankfully, it gets better eventually.

5. When you were convinced that nobody really knew you.

I thought I'd get over this stage in middle school...but here we are in college, and I still feel this way 80 percent of the time.

6. That time you dated a douchebag and just knew you were in love.

Oh, boy. If anyone knows how to cure this one, let me know. Still suffering. But hey, at least we come to our senses eventually.

7. When you refused help from everyone.

"No thanks, I'm fine. I can do it myself." Except you really did need help; you just didn't want it. Does that ever end?

8. When you finally gained the courage to confront the girl you were jealous of.

Jealousy is the ugliest trait, and we all suffer from it. But one day, there is going to be someone that makes you so mad that you can't help but to tell her how you really feel.

9. When you were too sassy to handle.

Hey, be sassy but be classy. That's what I always say.

10. And finally...when all we wanted in life was Chad Michael Murray.

Aka the most gorgeous human being to walk the planet, and Peyton got him. Goals.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
