Dan Scott......

I've been thinking all morning how I was going to be able to incorporate One Tree Hill in the blog today since I had to use the letter "D" and what better way than to use the infamous Dan Scott. His character if you haven't watched the show basically is the reason the show exists in the first place. He has two sons and basically ruins and saves (mostly ruins) both of their lives and we've spent the last 9 seasons watching the two sons lives unfold.

I started watching OTH at the beginning of high school. It's that show that just caught my eye that I haven't been able to give up. I loved the characters, the stories, the music, the realness, and how it just resonated so well with my life. Tonight is the series finale. It's so weird to write. I even teared up a bit as I typed that out. I know you're probably thinking this girl is insane for getting emotional over a television show but it's so much more to me than just a TV show. My high school years were not the most pleasant time for me. I had awful things happening to my family during that time, school wasn't the greatest, I was moving around a lot, and nothing was constant. One Tree Hill has been constant for me. It was there from the very beginning and has lasted me all the way until I'm soon to graduate college. It gave me my favorite singer Gavin Degraw (more to come on Saturday), it showed me that if you try and really believe in something you can make it happen (this show has been on the chopping block many times but it's lasted 9 seasons), and it's showed me the courage to pursue the next step in my life.

So as the door closes tonight for One Tree Hill, I believe that a door is soon to open for me and treat me to a new beginning and a new chapter of life. Goodnight One Tree Hill
