My first kiss: I was WAY behind my 8th grade classmates (I thought), and suffered from mumps in a severe way the week before, but still swolen, met my boyfriend, Timmy, at the theatre. I let him hold my hand for the first time and then we actually gave each other a kiss. It was a bold move on my part! My ears burned in a raging fire! (maybe due to the mumps, but what a kiss! There has been none other like it since!
