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.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
