Research Journal Entry 12 High School Musical

Today I saw a movie which was originally created by Disney Channel, High School Musical. The plot is that the two leading roles Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez met each other in a new year’s party by accident and then they happened to be in the same high school. They both have their own proficiency in different fields; one is a super star in the basketball team and the other one is an academic genius. In order to live up to others’ expectation, they both have to hide their real interest—singing. However, at the end of the movie, they both complete their dream and others’ expectation. The reason why I like this kind of movie is that it involves lots of great music and dancing which can magically make my depressed mood alive. After seeing the movie, I can feel that I seem to go back to my high school’s years when I was supposed to be the most energetic and had nothing to worry about. Nevertheless, people will grow up after all, and I know we have to. After we are grown-ups, we are always pursuing happiness. Most of us think money can bring us happiness, but the more money we earn, the less happiness we get. How ironic it is!
