10 Times 'High School Musical 2' Accurately Described Your Summer Vacation
The Walt Disney Company

For most college students, school let out about a month ago, and by this time you're either starting your summer job, about to start your summer job, or still looking for a summer job. I also enjoy using my free time in the summer to reconnect with nostalgic childhood obsessions, and "High School Musical" is certainly at the top of that list. Very few things have topped the anticipation I felt before "HSM 2" came out in the summer of 2007, and it is quite hard to believe it has been ten whole years since that movie came out on Disney Channel. With the impending anniversary of this childhood hallmark, a year and a half after the ten year anniversary of the franchise's first installment, I offer a (hopefully) humorous look at summer vacation through the eyes of these famous Albuquerque teens who just wanted to sing their hearts out all summer.

1. There's always that person who demonstrates how perfectly they grasp every aspect of the job you're expected to do.


2. It's even worse when you seriously struggle to pronounce a coworker's name, so you resort to hilariously spouting gibberish to cover your failure.


3. But it's not all bad, there's usually a cute coworker who you casually make eyes at every day, with no intentions of acting on your feelings.


4. In your spare time, you imagine yourself having fabulous pool parties every weekend and enjoying perfectly choreographed pool time.


5. And yet, your weekends are always slightly lazier than you had imagined they would be.


6. But there's always the promise of dramatic karaoke or car sing-a-longs with your friends to lighten the mood.


7. The best part of summer is definitely embracing a happy-go-lucky attitude and enjoying free time without any guilt about having to do work.


8. However, it really is frustrating when the summer weather you've been longing for all year is still not quite your optimal temperature.


9. It's even worse when you see images of Uncle Sam in your head saying, "We want YOU to be productive this summer."


10. Despite all this, you're always flabbergasted when summer ends way quicker than you thought it would.

I'm not actually sure that this .gif comes from "High School Musical 2," but it's close enough and you get the point. There's a lot of fear and negativity in the world, but there's nothing wrong with cracking open some nice HSM 2 .gifs to get you in the summer mood, just in time to have to worry about school again. Summer is about doing the things you don't have time to do during the school year, which, for me and I'm sure many others, involves reveling in childhood nostalgia and rediscovering some of your staples of summers past.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
