"One Tree Hill" Is Life

How we can relate to "One Tree Hill"

"One Tree Hill" Is Life

Netflix is great for binge watching, but over the several shows I have watched I believe "One Tree Hill" is one we can all relate to life. It has so many life lessons, on relationships, family, and what it means to be who you truly are.

Find that "best friend"

Just like in the beginning of the series of "One Tree Hill," Haley and Lucas were best friends ever since they could remember. They made yearly goals of what they wanted to accomplish, relationships or not they made goals that wanted to achieve. Even though things may not be okay and they drift apart when they truly need someone Lucas and Haley always come back to each other because they know they can trust each other.

Have that "Karen/Lucas" relationship with your mom or dad

Of course, every kid doesn't get along with their parents 100% of the time, but they're your biggest supporter and your biggest cheerleader. Yes, they might not be happy with some of the decisions you make but they will be there to give advice and offer to help in any way they can.

Find that "Framily Group"

Yes, I know this word isn't used at all in the show, but Peyton, Lucas, Haley, Nathan and Brooke because a "framily" They went through every hard time, and every struggle together. When Lucas was in the car accident that his Uncle Keith caused his friends were there. When Haley was hit by the car, and Lucas collapsed everyone was there. No matter what the hardship was this group stuck together, because they're a family.

Have an Uncle Keith and Lucas relationship

Ever since Lucas was little he remembered he always had Uncle Keith to look up too. Keith taught him everything he knew about cars and everything he needs to know about life. Even when we sadly lost Uncle Keith, but he gave Lucas small lessons to learn so he could be prepared to be that same uncle to Jamie. You don't really see that until Jamie starts asking questions about who Uncle Keith was, and then he said "You're kind of my Uncle Keith aren't you?" and Lucas agree and then it all made sense.

The River Court

The River Court was such a special place for all of them, from shooting hoops and hanging out as friends, the cast of OTH always enjoyed there time out at the court. Even before Lucas and Nathan liked each other they played a one on one game to see who was going to be the only Scott boy on the team. Even though it was a bad way to get everyone to the court they all came together.

Although "One Tree Hill" is no longer a current TV show, I believe it will always be a good show to relate to, considering all the lessons we can learn from it, and even take from it.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
