6 Songs From the 2000s That Turned Us All Into Pop Stars, Break Out That iPod Nano And Rock Out

Even though our microphones were hairbrushes, we could rock along with the best of them.

Picture this: You're back in middle school. You've just gotten off the school bus and have kicked off your turquoise Vans to the corner of your bedroom. "Tiger Beat Magazine" posters cover every inch of your boring, beige walls and you collapse on your tousled twin bed. Digging out your iPod Nano from the depths of your backpack, you plug in and set your imaginary stage.

If you're like me, this was a very real daily routine back in the golden years of youth. These are six 2000's songs that could turn anyone into a bedroom rockstar.

1. "This Is Me" - Demi Lovato

The anthem of middle schoolers everywhere, "This Is Me" by Demi Lovato in the beloved movie, "Camp Rock," always lifted the spirits as well as the self-esteem while you lip-synced into your hairbrush and imagined singing alongside Joe Jonas *swoon*.

2. "7 Things" - Miley Cyrus

You're a scorned girl; the boy you have a crush on didn't admit to his forbidden feelings for you when you *67-ed him at the sleepover with your friends last weekend. In retaliation, you blast this classic Miley hit and get all of your feelings out... at least until you see him in homeroom again and start all over.

3. "Burnin' Up" - Jonas Brothers

This lovely number never failed to cheer up a dragging youngster and enhance their rockstar imagination. Include two of your very best friends in the fun and your trio could have taken over the world. Or at least the after-school snack session.

4. "We're All In This Together" - East High

Don't try and deny it; we've all known the dance moves to this song at one point or another. Whether in the school gymnasium or alone in your room, this anthem to teen unity brings all the feels.

5. "Nobody's Perfect" - Hannah Montana**

This song always came in handy after a bad haircut or a nasty breakout reared its ugly blackheads. Even as a fictional character, Hannah gave us the perfect song to blast on the boom box when you were feeling the need for a pick-me-up.

6. "Play My Music" - Connect 3**

Being a big-time [bedroom] rockstar means we need a song to describe our absolute and pure love for music, a love that reaches down deep into our soul. Luckily, our favorite 2000s trio provided the perfect anthem to sing to the family cat as he lounges in your bedroom.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
