Today is the day!
High School Musical 3 opens today, and I couldn't be more excited. Well, actually, I'm sure I could, but as far as Oh-no, Maine goes - this is a big weekend.
My roommate and I have had the HSM 3 opening day on our planners for weeks. Maybe even months. And, yes, I know that High School Musical started out on the Disney Channel and that HSM 2 went directly to video, but we don't judge a good author by her first awkward poems, do we?
The thing about High School Musical is that is combines all the things we dread (or do not remember fondly) - singing, dancing, high school, summer jobs, the bitchy popular girl, first love - in a way that makes them at last palatable.
At least if my high school experience sucked (and believe me, it did), I can have fun watching some kids who have it all figured out.
I mean, what is NOT fun about watching a whole cafeteria of high schoolers dance in formation and sing, "No, no, no! Stick the status quo!"
It's witty. It's colorful. It's innocent. It's social commentary. (This last one might be a stretch, but I'll let you know after I see it.)
And let's be honest, if we all looked like Gabriella and could sing like Troy, our formative years would have been very different.
So, that's where I'll be today. Be jealous. Or just join me.
In other news, I saw A Fine Frenzy last night for free. Details on that when I don't have to prepare for 101.

I never would have pegged you as the type to enjoy the HSM series, but now that I know it makes perfect sense. How silly of me.
I haven't seen a single one of the movies so I can't judge, but I'm glad you're excited.
