20 Life Lessons From "One Tree Hill"
Life and Style Mag

I never watched this show while it was on tv, sadly. I watched it for the first time last summer and I'm admittedly watching it a second time this summer. This show pulls at your heart strings more than any show I've watched. I've cried over and over at the scenes. This show also gives amazing life lessons. I hope that one day, I'm one of those people at their reunion's in Wilmington. Until that day comes, I'll continue to admire the actors from the sidelines, in this show and their current shows/movies. I'll also keep crossing my fingers that Netflix will make a spinoff/reunion show like they did for Full House. One Tree Hill will always hit me in the feels with their inspirational life lessons and if you ever need one, this is the show to watch. Below are just 20 (there are lots more) of those lessons.

This is a typical quote for high school girl friends. You should always choose your friends over a boy. It is more likely that the boy will eventually leave, but your friends won't.

4.

This is true and will stand the test of time. Life goes by so quickly. You blink and suddenly you're graduating college and becoming an actual adult.

Sometimes people think if they have all this power and popularity in high school, it will transfer over to the real world. Bevin lets you know straight up that, that's not the case.

Don't live your life for a guy. You can miss them all you want, but when you realize that they aren't feeling the same way, it is time to move on with your life.

High school is when you meet some of your best friends and if you're lucky, you'll have known them even longer than that. When you're at the age, you're ready to leave for college. But, it is also the time to be a rebellious teenager with the friends you grew up with.

17.

Live by this. Life is too short to hold yourself back. Go after what and whoever you want.

18.

This is definitely a personal one for myself. My friends and my family are the post important people and I will be the biggest bitch in the world if it means protecting them.

19.

Focus on the good things about the person or the situation. You could turn anything negative if you want to, the point is to not do that.

20.

Never, ever let anyone including yourself believe that you're not good enough. You are good enough.

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"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.
