We go out with friends to parties, bars, clubs, and any social events that come up.

partner. Although the nature of intimacy suggests that most people agree on at least six different components of intimate partners (Miller, 2006), there is no certain, overall principle that can comprehensively explain what women and men want in a mate. Some researchers have speculated possible explanations by emphasizing the reproductive success in evolutionary psychology (Buss, 1994), while others rely on biological cues, such as hormones, facial expressions and body shape to discern…
Kayden’s POV(Wattpad ends here!!!!) *Knock Knock* “Come in” In walks in my beta Kevin. “You were right that girl has to be Jay’s mate. He has spent the last couple days with her. Last I saw them heading into the woods together and earlier Jay was setting up a picnic” Interesting. “He hasn't brought her to the pack house?” I asked “Not that I know of. She doesn't even seem to know he’s a werewolf” Kevin said. “Well that could be either good or bad for us” “Do you really have to kidnap…
The Taming of the Shrew is a classical play written by William Shakespeare and known by many people. It has been passed down generations and made into movies. For this assignment, I watched the 1967 version of The Taming of the Shrew and a play version put on by the UAA Theater and Dance crew. In my opinion, I liked the play better. The film seems to cut out parts of the play and shorten parts of the play. The film also changes the dialogue slightly and changes the framework. Although the two…
“Love at First Sight” “Is Love at first sight realistic” and “are soulmates real,” are questions that are not fully answered and are still questioned by science. Imagine that your soul mate, or if you don’t believe in them, the person you’re “destined” to be with has crossed paths with you manifold times before finally, formally meeting them. Ironic is it not? Fate is supposed to bring the two individuals together, yet the first time you informally meet, if it ever comes into being, you may…
People say that love can make you do crazy things. A short story written by Hans Andersen called “The Little Mermaid” sounds like a story based on this quote. This story is about a young mermaid who wants to be loved. In the story the young mermaid has a growing obsession with the world of the humans. She dreams of the day that she is allowed to go to the surface, sit on the rocks, and watch the ships go by. The girls are only allowed to go to the surfaces at the age of fifteen and at night.…
Imagine a mother sitting with her children describing how she met their father. What would she tell them? Is it the perfect love story or were there a couple bumps along the way to happiness? Meeting that special someone can be quite difficult. Where will it happen? When will it happen? How would someone know when they have found “the one”? With the influx of technology, the dating game has changed. Nowadays, everyone is using online dating websites or apps like Tinder, eHarmony, or okCupid.…
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead, an American cultural anthropologist, recognizes something others may not, the power and importance of thought. Those who are grown assume that children do not and cannot understand the problems and troubles in their culture, but they do. The younger generation observe closely and have thought deeply, coming to many of the correct conclusions to…
Imagine a world that is perfect and has no choices or freedom to do what people believe is right and having someone else pick your spouse, that is not a world that anyone should want to live in. It is believed that a Utopia is possible, but some think our society is a better place to live. Although utopian lifestyles wouldn't work or remain perfect, and societies advances and how it is getting better without being a utopia, and how relationships in society wouldn't happen in a utopia.…
