13 Guys Every Single Girl Who Grew Up in the 2000s And 2010s Had A MASSIVE Crush On

Growing up in the 2000s meant every night at 8 p.m. I was watching a movie on Disney Channel. Sure, I loved the cheesy plot lines, the pretty teenage girls, and the the funny commercials in between... but my absolute favorite part was imagining that the cute boy of every movie was my boyfriend. You could say I was a little boy crazy for someone in elementary school. Can you really blame me though? With all the cute boys in the 2000s and 2010s there was no way I wasn't going to be at least a little boy crazy.

Here are just a few of those boys that contributed to my (and probably yours too) boy craziness growing up.

1. Zac Efron as Troy Bolton in every HSM movie

He was one of the first boys I was ever in love with. I had Zac Efron holding a basketball while wearing an East High jersey on just about everything I owned. I had him on my folders, cups, and even a nightgown, which looking back on it, is kind of creepy.

2. Baby-faced Justin Bieber

Something about his high pitched singing voice and his haircut that covered his forehead was absolutely adorable.

3. Jesse McCartney

Okay, I still have a crush on this guy. I was ridiculously young when "Beautiful Soul" came out, but I still heard it on Radio Disney and completely fell in love.

4. Taylor Lautner

Maybe it was the fact that he loved Bella so much and got himself into the epic love triangle of our time. Or maybe it was his six pack and bicep tattoo. It was probably that.

5. Jesse from Hannah Montana

I definitely was in love with this guy because he was the 'bad boy' that we weren't supposed to like. I always wanted him to end up with Miley and I know that my friends did too. Nothing like a bad boy who plays guitar to make your 10-year-old self swoon.

6. Drake Bell

How could we not fall in love with this guy? He could play guitar, got all the girls, and never failed to crack me up when he was fighting with Josh.

7. Aaron Samuels

His hair will forever look sexy pushed back. Forever and always.

8. Corbin Bleu

Troy Bolton's sidekick stole my heart when I saw him play basketball in the very first "High School Musical." The boy could sing, dance and, double dutch like there was no tomorrow.

9. Every single member of One Direction

I devoted hours of my life to listening to their first few albums. I knew pretty much everything there was to know about them and thought that I was dating all of them at the same time.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
