I'm not so sure but I think I might subconciously mention some spoilers here so if you haven't watch OTH Season 5 yet, this is really a good time to leave my blog. Thanks.
I just finished watching the 5th season of One Tree Hill the other day. And the last scene was a tormenting cliffhanger! ARGH. Who the hell did Lucas call?? I'm dyiiiiiiing to know but please don't tell me. I want to see it for myself. Hahaha.
I really hope it's Peyton! Ever since OTH started, I had always been rooting for Lucas and Peyton. I think they're just both too scared of something THAT good and real that they end up doing the wrong things and making wrong decisions when it comes to their relationship. Peyton's life has always been so full of drama. And when Lucas gets hurt, he tends to hide from his feelings for Peyton by throwing himself out to the next girl who comes too close.
As for Brooke, I like her character too. She has grown so much. She's not this highschool cheerleader anymore who just wants to party and get wasted every night. Now, she loves herself so much more. And she wants to have a baby! I love how her character developed over the years. If she's the one Lucas called on the season finale, I think I'd be okay with it except for one thing -- it would ruin Brooke's friendship with Peyton. Their friendship is one of the things I love about the show. It would really suck if they start fighting again. Check out this short clip from one season 5 episode. I'm no Brooke-Lucas shipper but I do love Chad and Sophia as a real-life couple. And this scene is just too heartbreaking considering that they're divorced now and Chad's already engaged to someone else. Tsk. Sigh.
Don't they look adorable? I wish they just stayed married in real life. :(
Well anyway, moving on to Lindsey. First of all, let's face it. She's the new girl in town and although we all love to hate her, she's still great. She tries to be supportive in everything Lucas does -- including helping Peyton and Brooke even though it makes her insanely jealous. She always puts a brave face for him. I admire that. And plus, her smoky eyes are really gorgeous.
By the way, seeing Mark Schwahn (creator of One Tree Hill) do a cameo in the show again -- in a longer scene with longer lines -- is very nice. I love how his character, Max, checks up on Peyton and gives her advice. They have always shared a special kind of friendship. For those of you who can't remember who he is, Max is the owner of the music store Peyton used to go to. Max had known Peyton almost all her life. When Peyton's foster mom died, he would give her free records and ask her to listen to particular songs to help her cope with the pain. It's like a brother looking out for his baby sister.
I have to say, I enjoyed watching this season. It wasn't as good as the previous seasons but I guess I just missed it so much that simply watching the episodes always gives an air of satisfaction. And the soundtrack pretty much kicked ass!
I cannot wait for Season 6! Must. Not. Google. Spoilers. Hahaha.
Chad Michael Murray turns 27 today. Happy birthday, Chad! :)
Suddenly, it was as if roar of the crowd, the echo of the final buzzer, the cheers of my teammates were all sounding from a thousand miles away. And what remained in that bizarre muffled silence was only Peyton, the girl whose art and passion and beauty had changed my life. In that moment, my triumph was not a state championship, but simple clarity. The realization that we had always been meant for each other, and every instinct to the contrary had simply been a denial of the following truth: I was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer.
