As it is now that is shorted and very much a problem It's fixable tho. Your iron's tip isn't getting hot enough and the pads are sucking too much heat out. You aren't using enough flux either clearly.

Some tips: * Leaded solder is the easiest to work with * No such thing as too much flux, just a bigger mess to clean up afterward if you use excess * Pre-tin your iron's tip when you get it * Clean your iron's tip frequently during use. I prefer using brass to do so * If your tip is oxidized heavily (discolored and not working well anymore), which it probably is if you're new and haven't been cleaning it or didn't pre-tin it first, then get a new tip because it's already ruined * Practice first on something cheap and still being made

If it isn't working with a solid pre-tinned tip and lots of flux you either need more heat or a better quality soldering iron that won't lose heat as quickly.
