I'm Rikki...and I Have a Confession!

So, I'm well aware that I usually talk about WDW in this blog...but today, I thought I'd take on something a little different. It's still Disney related, it just doesn't deal with the theme parks, per se.

I have a confession......


I've seen High School Musical 3 twice already during opening weekend and today, I bought the soundtrack. How sad am I? I couldn't help it though. Those songs are downright infectious! I had them stuck in my head and the only way to get them out was to get the soundtrack, right?

That's it, it's time to just admit it...I'm Rikki, and I'm a 25 year old HSM fan.

That's right...I was teeny bopping it all the way to the theaters this weekend...but I wasn't alone. I manged to go not only with Brian (who, coincidentally loves HSM too...how odd is that?!) but my best friend went with me as well, since she is also a fan of musicals and of course, the HSM movies.

And as someone who has seen the movie (a few times) I have to say, I really did like it. It was definitely more grown up than the other ones, lots of issues that face real teenagers were featured...you know...the whole growing up and deciding your future thing. It was really done quite well. Definitely a movie that has some heart to it. (Oh...and sadly enough...I will also readily admit to being one who has a tiny crush on Zac Efron...thank God he's legal! lol!!!)

The songs were also really good this time too. At first, I didn't think I liked the songs as much...but the more time went on, the more I'd get another song from the movie stuck in my head. I have tons of favorite tracks and am currently listening to my fabulous new purchase as we speak...er...write! There are a bunch that are just really rockin! I don't want to turn my CD player off!

So, for those of you who have that HSM prejudice...it's really not so bad. I know the movie's merchandise seem to be taking over the stores on Disney property...but there's a reason (even if it is a bit overkill). The movies, really are, very good. And I highly recommend them to people...the first and third one...the second one I didn't like so much. Give them a chance...because they might surprise you.

So, everyone, put on your Wildcat jersey and Get Your Head in The Game, cause we really can be All In This Together!

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I am taking my 8 yr old daughter to see it Saturday and I'm not sure who is more excited! :)
