3 Things That 'One Tree Hill' Taught Me
Odyssey

The show "One Tree Hill" on Netflix is really a can’t miss. It has high school drama, family rivals, murderers, true love, and just about anything you can imagine. Not only does it have just the right amount of craziness, but it also has many life lessons. I highly encourage you to indulge in this binge-worthy show when you get a chance. This show teaches you lessons on…

1. Friendship

No matter what happens to these teenagers, their friendship never seems to end. Girls hook up with their best friends boyfriends, brothers fight (literally), and one even gets pregnant with her best friends brother. Trust me, there’s a lot of drama. But no matter what their life seems to throw at them, their friendship never fades away.

2. Love for sports

When the Tree Hill Ravens win that championship basketball game by a 3-pointer at the buzzer, I’m pretty sure I started crying. The love that the team and Coach Whitey Durham had for basketball is that rare love for sports that you never really see. A love for a sport that real makes me know that some people’s crazy obsessions with the game, in reality, is so important to have.

3. True love

I have never seen any show in my entire life that portrays true love better than "One Tree Hill" does. Haley and Nathan’s forbidden and secret relationship turns into a high school marriage, a pregnancy, and an eternal love. Lucas and Peyton’s relationship going from dating, to hiding their relationship, to sneaking around, and then finally being together again takes you on a crazy roller coaster of love. Lucas’ mom, Karen, and his uncle Keith, had a love so real that nothing could seem to break it. And although Keith ended up passing away (spoiler alert he was killed by his brother), Karen still had his baby and loved her just as much. This show has taught me so much about true love, that I hope one day I am happily married with my a prince charming of my own.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
