future_doc Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 For me, not terribly important because I find that first impressions are too deceiving. I'd rather slowly get to know someone over time. However, I know for others first impressions can be extremely important. Say, meeting your partner's parents. Or, introducing yourself at an important interview. Therefore, I admit I make a very conscious effort of dressing and acting appropriately for the occasion. Question: How do you react when others takon.e photos of you? Like it? Neutral? Hate it? A smile and being dressed smartly goes a long way. Only don't take a photo of me unless you receive my permission. Why don't you like animals and why do you like them and which do you prefer, animals or humans?

Historically, Calgary's apps have been due on October 15 at 11:59PM MST. However, I'm not sure if that's changed since their new manual, rules, etc came out. Also, References MUST be submitted by then, or else you get a "0" for that reference (reportedly). Favourite TV cartoon character from when you were a kid?

Do you like to make new friends, or is your circle of group of friends really exclusive and are very selective who you let in? Do you think we can be friends?

MarathonRunner Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I kind of wish I was taller, but not always. Do grammar/spelling errors on this forum annoy you? No. "Textspeak" however, does. I find it very hard to read a post full of "u"s instead of "you" and "i" instead of "I." But that's me, I'm definitely an "old fogey" compared to a lot of the people on this forum, and I didn't grow up texting. Heck, when I text these days I use full words and sentences.

Like you are given a fork in the road and dunno which path to take 1) choose whatever colour suits you! 2) When I have to make an important decision, I am very careful. I will ask others for advice and what they would do in they were in my situation. I would take everything into account and wiegh my choice carefully to predicted consequences. In the end it will be my choice so I would hope to do the best I can. How do you get good grades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you are given a fork in the road and dunno which path to take 1) mixed colour, easier to find if temporarily lost 2) Firstly, you need to know that you have reached a fork and understand your options, the risks vs rewards, the likelihood of maximizing success and knowing if one option leads to less doors open down the road. Knowing your own stengths and weaknesses and where you are heading helps. Seek advice form others, but only rely upon yourself for the final decision regardless of the alleged expertise of those you speak to - it is your life. Long or short hair?
