Once a Wild Cat always a Wild Cat! Vanessa Hudgens returns to East High

Once a Wild Cat always a Wild Cat! Vanessa Hudgens returned to East High this week! The 33-year-old High School Musical star returned to the set where the Disney Channel franchise filmed between 2006 and 2008. She posted a sweet video on her Instagram of her walking past the iconic school entrance. 

"Do you remember in kindergarten how you'd meet a kid and know nothing about them, then 10 seconds later you're playing like you're best friends because you didn’t have to be anything but yourself?" Hudgens captioned her video. The line is a reference to a famous moment in the first film when Hudgens' character, Gabriella, shares a sweet rooftop conversation with Zac Efron's Troy. 

The tick, tick ... BOOM! star also set the video to the opening notes of Breaking Free, the first film's climactic final song.  Check out the post below!

The post was a trip down memory lane for High School Musical fans, who still seem to love the franchise as if it were yesterday. Many shared their love for the post, and the update quickly gathered over 1.7 million likes.
