Your First Kiss

Well, that wasn't what I expected

Your First Kiss

Everyone looks forward to their first kiss.

There's no denying the fact that we were all one SO excited to experience something as life changing as our first kiss. However, for most of us it was anything BUT life changing.

It was awkward, it was sloppy, and it was painfully long.

What you think your first kiss looked like:


What your first kiss actually looked like:


Your first kiss is rarely what it looks like in the movies

For many of us, our first kiss wasn't complete with fireworks and cheesy music playing in the background. It resulted in weird hugging and many attempts at lip locking.

Everyone thinks their first kiss story is the best.

Whether your first kiss was behind a tree at recess when you were 10 or at some college party after a few too many spritzers, it seems like everyone has a "hilarious" or "adorable" first kiss story.

Your first kiss is a right of passage.

I remember being younger and asking my older sisters about their first kisses and thinking they were SO cool because they had already experienced it and had a cool story to go along with it. Now I get that, although first kisses are exciting and a right of passage so to speak, they are weird and it's kind of a strange thing to look forward to.

Everyone has their first kiss at a different time in their lives.

I have friends who had their first kiss in kindergarten and college friends who have yet to have their first kiss. Everyone is different, and that shouldn't be something they are ostracized for.

Thank your first kiss.

We should send our first kisses a Thank You card because even if it wasn't a life changing kiss, it was still the first one, and that's kinda special.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
