A Forbidden Love Theme Is An All-Time Favorite And 8 More Reasons 'The Kissing Booth' Is A Must See

"The Kissing Booth" is an original Netflix film that has stolen the hearts of most teenage girls and romantic comedy fans. This story is based on a never-been kissed Elle Evans who decides to run a kissing booth at her high school carnival. During which Elle kisses Mr. Popular and bad boy, Noah Flynn who is also her best friend's (Lee Flynn's) older brother. As you can guess, Noah is completely off limits but, that can't stop them from falling for each other. This high school romance has been a constant favorite for my girlfriends and me for nine reasons. Warning if you have not watched "The Kissing Booth" beware of some spoilers.

1. High school romance

Giphy

Ladies, I know I am not the only one who is a sucker when it comes to young high school love because we have all been there and have dreamed about it. Since fairytales and other Disney romances, Noah and Elle are hitting that spot in our hearts.

2. The hot best friend’s brother dilemma

Giphy

The forbidden love theme is an all-time favorite! We can't help ourselves but to root for Noah and Elle to be together, they shouldn't but that's even more a reason why they should be a couple. Facing all odds and ending up in a forever.

3. The player plot twist

  • A known bad boy with a reputation and a motorcycle is the heartthrob of my childhood. When he can change his ways for one girl the plot twist I cannot resist how charming it is. Love conquers all and it restores our faith in players (kind of it is a movie)

4. The first kiss

How cheesy are you allowed to be in a high school romance film? ALL THE WAY! Imagine your first kiss with your dream crush, blind-folded at a kissing booth and realizing that its him then sparks fly between you both. Far-fetched? To be honest, yes, But I'm here for it.

5. The relatable elle evans

Elle Evans is a late bloomer, athlete, awkward and not as popular as she would like to be. She feels invisible but she's the girl you'd never think the popular, three-time varsity sport player, heart throb, Noah Flynn. She's you and me.

6. The best friend power duo

Lee and Elle are the ideal best friend duo. Many claim guys and girls can't be best friends but here they are proving everyone wrong. You are able to be friends with the opposite sex without being more than friends.

NOAH FLYNN

High school didn't have a guy who looked like Jacob Elordi, a few but it was very rare.

8. The mean girl squad

In the film there are three typical popular mean girls who are labeled as the "OMG" girls. They all want Noah Flynn but the popular girls don't catch his eye. With style and more sass than anyone, they create the typical high school atmosphere.

Rules are meant to be broken

Elle and Lee live by their rule book they created in the sixth grade and Lee's brother, Noah is considered against the rules. But when it comes to love, rules are meant to be broken.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
