tvd; the finale

After 8 seasons of me spending endless hours in front of my laptop screen obsessing over imaginary creations that unfortunately don't exist in real life, tvd came to its end.

I didn't think that this day would come as soon as it did. I casually clicked the 16th episode thinking that it would be just another episode of the last season. When it was in fact the very last episode of the very last season.

Although I'm sad that it ended I have to say that it couldn't have a better ending. This was the second time I experienced the end of one of my favorite tv shows (the first one was Gossip Girl!) and I have to admit that I loved it. It was literally bonding perfectly with all the previous seasons. I loved vampire diaries so much. I am not a fan of sci-fi fiction in fact I hate it but tvd had a special place in my heart from the beginning (and it still has).

But how did it all started?

I remember my 12 year old self randomly finding a video of Damon and Elena on YouTube. After seeing that clip I knew that I had to watch this show. And I did, I even convinced my brother to watch it with me..

At first I was in love with Damon's character but while growing older I started appreciating how perfectly kind and generous Stefan's character really was. The same thing happened with the ultimate otp of the show; Delena. Damon has earned a special place in every girl's heart since he never stopped fighting for the girl he loved, Elena. Speaking of which; tvd introduced to me my favorite musician out there, Ed Sheeran. The song Kiss Me started playing in the background of a Delena dancing scene in front of the fireplace in the Salvatore brother's enormous house and I knew that I had to check this new to me artist out. Since I did the rest is pretty much history.. But then as I was growing older I realized how incredible perfect that friendship that later turned into love of Stefan and Caroline truly was, and I totally fell for it.

As for the naughty ones; Catherine Pierce aka Katerina Petrova is one of the biggest female badass characters ever existed. She was always my favorite female character of the show. (Ninas acting skills were beyond on point to make both Elena and Katherine act like a completely different person while looking alike.)

In that very last episode all of of my favorite characters were brought back from the dead. Besides that, Damon was finally the person his brother always wanted him to be. Stefan was not only the sweet, kind and caring one as he always were but he was also the hero. Bonnie was strong again. Elena was back. Caroline and Alaric created something so special for all of those young and gifted kids of that imaginary world. As for Car; I'm pretty sure that a brand new story is about to begin for her, a stubborn one. It's safe to say that I was crying in my pillow from the very start of the episode all the way to its end. The pairs of the show; Damon and Elena were together at last. Bonnie will always care Enzo with her in way only Bonnie Bennett could. As for my favorites; Stefan and Caroline had what us writers call a tragically romantic ending; like the ones only endlessly and madly people in love have.

That was pretty much it; the end of this post (or farewell letter if you prefer to call it so) to tvd. Spoiler Alert; I'm pretty sure I'll restart binge watching it from the begging very soon. Since I already paid my respect I guess it's my time to say goodbye.

Goodbye tvd; you'll definitely be missed,
Yours sincerely Kat.

Dear angel,
For today's letter I teamed up with a great friend of mine who conveniently happens to be a blogger too. We decided to do the get to know me tag together. I've seen this tag in quite a few platforms and I thought it would be a nice idea to do this so you guys can know a little bit more about my dear friend Elisa.

In an episode of Arrow.

3. If you were another person, would you be a friend of yourself?
I don't really know how people see me, but there are days when I wouldn't even look at myself. But everyone deserves a chance, so maybe I'd try to get to know me.

4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Like a favorite character once said, sarcasm is my only defense.

I used to think that this question meant to go to a good university and have a family, but to do all of that you first need to find out who you truly are. Like the flowers need the sun and water to grow, so do we, we just all have a different sun and a different definition of water.
