I've decided I wanted to make a post about this guy. Zachary David Alexander Efron. I've had the biggest crush on him since I was 11 and I still do and I'm close to 18 now. So he's been a part of my life for almost 8 years now. The first movie I watched of his was High School Musical. Let's be frank, he wasn't really an attractive lad in the first High School Musical. I remembered my primary school friends questioning me in why would I even have a crush on him? But for some reason, Zac Efron had a special place in my heart when I was an 11 year old girl. There was where my online name "Fiqah Efron" came from. Remember Friendster? I had an account there and it was the first site where I added my name as "Fiqah Efron." He was dating Vanessa Hudgens back then. I adored them so much. They were in a relationship for 5 years which is considered quite long since they're a young Hollywood couple. I was gutted when they broke up to be honest. Ever since that break up, Zac has been single for almost 3 years now and that's crazy to me considering how good looking he is.
I've watched Zac grow over the years as a person and an artist. I bought every single magazine which had him on the cover or even if he's in a small portion in the magazines, I would grab the magazine and buy it. I'm pretty sure I have more than a 100 posters of Zac and I still have them intact up till this day. I've always seen him in movies and thought that he was a talented young man. I fell in with him and it wasn't the kind of love that fans have for a celebrity. I feel so much for him. I care for him. Even though he might not know I exist. He inspires me. His success over the years has made me so proud of him and I know that he's happy and I wanted him to be happy.
Recently, it's been all over the news. He went to rehab for substance abuse. At first I was stunned especially when I found out it was all 5 months ago. But then I was proud of him. Why? He prevented a disaster in the making as he got up and he seek for the help that he knew he needed. It took guts. He knew it was bad for him, he came forward and seek help without anyone forcing him to do so. I couldn't be more proud of that. He's only human, he's young, he make mistakes and he learnt from them.
The press and media has been crazy lately due to this. I've seen jokes where people make and post them on Twitter about how a High School Musical star turned out to be a fucked up. Was I angry when I saw all of those? Yes I was. But I knew I shouldn't be worked about it because it's childish. I understand how much support and love he needs right now and I'll always have his back.
In conclusion, I know he won't be reading this but I just feel like writing about this. I love him for who he is, for all the mistakes that he made and all the success and failures that he have had. I want nothing but the best for him.
