Lessons 'One Tree Hill' Has Taught Me

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

One Tree Hill is one of those shows that stays with you forever. No matter how many times you watch the same episode you will cry even more or be just as happy because the two wanted together from the beginning finally make it happen. There are so many things I have learned from this show so I wanted to share my top few.

1. Teaching me to take risks and be bold and outgoing.

2. To know that I only deserve a love like Haley and Nathan’s.

3. To face the mistakes I have made in the past and learn from them.

4. To believe in those you love and never give up in them.

5. To chase after your dreams, no matter how unrealistic they may be.

6. Change is a good thing. It may take some time but it’s worth it. So wait.

7. Do not try and find reasons to give up, look for reasons to fight.

8. Find the one you ‘want standing next to you when all of your dreams come true.’

9. It is more than okay to cry.

10. Don’t forget where and who you come from.

11. Family and friends are some of the most important things in the world. So treat them that way.

12. There are places ‘where everything’s better and everything’s safe.’

There will always be a special place in my heart for One Tree Hill and the stories it tells. It provides great life lessons and really teaches you great values when it comes to those you love.

Always and forever.

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.

"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?
