We're going to miss this funny little face Elena Gilbert makes when she hears something silly and slightly unbelievable. It's the face we made when we learned Nina Dobrev was leaving The Vampire Diaries.
In addition to having the best ballgowns around, Mystic Falls also had one of the best period costume shops. Elena and Co. loved to dress up for Caro's crazy dances.
Many fans loved Nina Dobrev as Katherine Pierce more than they loved Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert. Take a look at these doppelgangers and decide for yourself.
How could we forget Elena's existential crisis? She learned this "lay in the middle of the road and play dead so I can eat whoever stops to help" trick from Damon.
When Damon teaches her the art of "catch, eat, erase," Elena Gilbert realizes she definitely has a taste for human blood. That whole sire-bond thing totally had nothing to do with it.
Oooh, you know I don't know. Every time we try and go on a date you get kidnapped, I get sent to a prison world, or your feelings get compelled away...
