Brooke Davis, icon star of "One Tree Hill defined" standards for girls everywhere. Her strength and wisdom inspired us all to be better versions of ourselves. Through her trials and tribulations of teenage years and adulthood, we can all learn something from the fabulous B. Davis.

1. When she constantly instilled that your BFFs always come first.

No matter what, friends and family come first.

2. When she taught us to defy labels

A label is just a word; it doesn't mean you have to fulfill its meaning.

3. When she told us that even when were scared, everything will work out

We all have tough days, all you need is a hope to get through.

4. When she told us that it's okay to let your guard down

Not every boy you meet is going to be a jerk, just trust your heart.

5. When she taught us to be our own person and not follow the crowd

Be the leader of your own pack.

6. When she showed us to confront judgmental bitches

Everyone has their own story, but who says you need to know it?

7. When she taught us never to be a "side-chick"

It's a golden rule. Just don't. Home-wreckers are NOT cute.

8. When she told us it's okay to be afraid of the future

No plan is set in stone; the rest is still unwritten.

9. When she taught us to stand up for double-standards

Stand up for what you believe in, and never be ashamed of it

10. When she taught us to be proud of who we are, always

Never be embarrassed for who you are. You are beautiful.
