I learned in class. Apparently humans have between 400 and 800 skills. I thought that was interesting considering I don't think I could come up with 400 skills that I have; much less 800 skills.
Wierd, the weight that people place on first impressions. Like you have 3-5 seconds to make an impression on someone - whether positive or negitive. And first impressions are hard to cure. Humans will draw a conclusion on what they see and that will stick in their mind for a very long time if not forever. As much as it is often a negitive aspect that we draw conclusions so quickly - it is something that we have to take in account. Sometimes you don't agree with things, but you try to work around them in order that other people to not get caught up on something minor - such as an avoidable negitive first impression.
