I'm also surprised how few people can drive stick and how some just refuse to learn.
The main thing on my list would be improving and learning to speak then read/write different languages. Hopefully I'll make a lot of progress on these in a year. - French (just the basics, taking courses in Uni.) - Cantonese (I suck but getting better) - Mandarin (my dad's home full time now so I'm going to get him and friends to start teaching me) - Vietnamese (not the greatest and can't really read/write which is sad) I'd also like learn more about stocks/finances. I'm not a nature person and can't stand the sun so I don't have as much on my list =/. I'm also going to try and start sleeping less and less to see if I can get by on 4-5 hours a day or some [censored] like sleeping every other day. But this is more self-abuse then anything? |

I suppose this is the wrong website to mention "social skills"? Almost 40 posts in and the closest we've gotten is "Music", "Public speaking", and "How not to get in a fight". I guess 2+2 really "doesn't play well with others".... - How to introduce yourself to strangers, particularly of the opposite sex - How to make small talk with people you don't know/don't care about - How to make friends and influence people - How to dress yourself for different situations - Personal hygene - How to pick out an appropriate gift for a variety of occaisions - How to hold your alcohol, particularly in situations where it'd be inappropriate to get sloppy-drunk - How to write a resume - How to do well in a job interview - How to relate to a boss, co-worker or subordinate - How to deal with customers/clients, how to be a customer/client - How to wield authority (leadership), how to deal with abuses of authority - How to tip etc. [/ QUOTE ] I was really worried about this forum until I read this one. Knowing how and when to tell a joke is also up there. |
