Good ol' "High School Musical", the epitome of our elementary and middle school days. If the walls of your room weren't camouflaged with TigerBeat posters of Zac Efron and you didn't carry around your HSM lunchbox, were you even a cool kid? If you didn't grow up learning the dance moves to "We're All in This Together" and wishing you were a student at East High, you might need to reevaluate your childhood. Even though the "High School Musical" movies were created to explain modern day high school (which actually strays far from that point because no one breaks out into random song and dance during class), the world-wide phenomena, still resonates today in describing the crazy world of college. College can be a crazy, riveting, stressful, and unforgettable experience. Here's how the gold of Disney Channel original movie's describes the lives of college students.

When you forget to do an assignment that's worth half of your grade.

When your only friend in the class drops and you're left all by your lonesome.

At the beginning of the semester when you're feeling ambitious and think you can make Dean's List.

...but then you get the first test back and you’re like…

When you have no idea what your professor is lecturing about and it just sounds like gibberish.

When you’ve gone all semester without realizing one of your best friends is in the same lecture as you.

Having to walk up that one hill or set of stairs to class every day and realizing how insanely out of shape you are.

Having to give a presentation in front of the entire class when you're the worst public speaker.

Trying to focus on getting your homework done and studying when your roommates are getting ready to go out.

When you wake up to an email from your professor informing you that class is cancelled.

When someone taller than you is sitting in front of you and they're blocking your view of the board.

When your campus crush is in your class.

When the weekend finally comes and your sorority/club/sports team is having a formal.

When your school wins the big game against its biggest rival and everyone's hyped with school spirit.

When you decide to go out on a weekday and have class the next morning and think you'll make it to class but end up waking up three hours after class started.

When your professor announces that the final is cumulative.

When you think you bombed your final and you've been waiting for your professor to post your grade and they finally do.

When all your friends are going out but you have to stay in and do that 10-page research paper you've been putting off.

When spring break finally comes around and you and your friends can finally unwind and enjoy a week in paradise.

When you wake up late and have to rush to get ready for class.

When you're assigned a group project and one of the members of your group does nothing and your professor assigns peer evaluations and you get to expose your lazy group member.

When you're two weeks into the semester and you already only have $2 in your bank account.

When you get an A on the test you pulled an all-nighter for.

When you go home for the weekend and see all your hometown friends and it's like nothing has changed.

College can be both a struggle and adventure, but everyone is in the same boat so at the end of the day we're all in this together.
