A Definitive Ranking Of The "High School Musical" Songs

"High School Musical" came out 12 years ago in 2006. Yeah, 12 years ago. Since then, it has been a constant staple in my throwback playlists.

But we all know some of the songs are better than others, and one of the movies is the best out of all three. I tend to butt heads with friends over which songs are the best, and now I am settling it once and for all.

1. "Breaking Free"

The end all, be all. I will scream this at the top of my lungs whenever it comes on.

2. "Start of Something New"

The song that started it all, also a bop if there ever was one.

3. "When There Was Me and You"

If you didn't dramatically sing this to yourself when you were younger, you're lying.

4. "Get'cha Head in the Game"

The irony of the song makes it that much better. You don't want your basketball team to know you love singing, so you sing an entire song about it at basketball practice with your team singing backup. Makes perfect sense.

5. "What I've Been Looking For" (Sharpay/Ryan or Troy/Gabriella)

The Sharpay and Ryan version was a little incesty, so that's why it's #5.

6. "We're All in this Together"

It's a great song but after the first chorus, I'm over it. It's the best cumulative song for the movie, but it ends the movie on a high note and that's about it.

7. "Stick to the Status Quo"

This is only because the song should have been an anthem for empowerment. But Sharpay comes in and ruins it all with her tyranny.

8. "Bop to the Top"

I will be 110% honest, this is the last one because I absolutely hated the song as a child solely. Ryan and Sharpay were trying to ruin Troy and Gabriella's lives; no reason other than that.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
