The First Kiss Gives You A Lot Of Info, But Not All Of It Is Important

The truth behind the myth of a first kiss.

The First Kiss Gives You A Lot Of Info, But Not All Of It Is Important
Princess Diary

We have all had that horrible first kiss experience, I know I have. We have been told for many years that a first kiss can tell you everything you need to know about a relationship. But does that myth stand to be true?

There are two sides to every argument. For those who believe that the first kiss can tell all, I am on their side. If you don't feel physically compatible with someone with something as simple as a kiss, how are you going to make the rest of the relationship work?

Yes, emotional compatibility is as equally important, but you can't have one without the other.

Imagine going on what you consider to be the perfect first date, and he or she walks you up to your place and the kiss is dry, gross and just unpleasant in general.

You immediately discredit that person from creating any sort of romantic relationship. But if the first kiss is perfect, and you can feel the sparks flying, that's how you know that this is going to be something special.

There are also those who believe that a first kiss is not as powerful as it has been said to be. If the date is perfect, and you emotionally connect with that person on such a strong level, you just know it's going to work.

But if that kiss is awful yet those emotions are there, you always have the ability to fix it.

A kiss is a physical aspect of a person that can be repaired or enhanced, kind of like going to the gym to enhance your cardio. So if the kiss is really all that bad, and the emotions are there, maybe consider taking the time to fix that small detail.

If we put so much pressure on the first kiss, we are setting ourselves up for failure. Although I am very traditional in the romantic sense, and most definitely believe in the magic first kiss, maybe we should consider putting those wild expectations aside. Because one day, that perfect someone will come along and we may toss them to the side because the kiss wasn't just right.

So take a step back, and enjoy people for who they are, not for the things they do.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
