Solder CPU Heatsink mount to motherboard?

I made a thread nearly a week ago regarding the heatsink mount that separated from the motherboard in my MSI GT70 2PC. I tried epoxy, which failed to resolved the issue. My other option now is to attempt to solder it back to the board, which judging by the other mounts for the CPU and GPU, is closer to how they were originally attached. The thing is, I'm clueless as to how to tackle this, as this would be my first time soldering. I bought a soldering iron to practice on other electronics with before I mess with my laptop. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
