As we live, we meet numerous people. The moment to meet those people can be come by an accident or by a settled appointment. The choice to know each person can be your choice or the other's choice.
If we just pass by the person during we find a class in a hallway, the person is just a passenger but, if someone drop a book so that if we look each other and talk few minutes, by introducing, we could make a new friend. However, the point is what about the impression about the new person. More exactly, how can you decide what kind of person you just met.
I believe the first impression of the person I meet and the first impression of me who other think will affect other to decide whether if they want to meet me again or not.
Like the context, 'The First Four Minutes', absolutely, the first attitude and face expression affect the impression. Try imagine that you dropped a book and the person who picked up your book say, "Are you ok? Here is your book. I hope you are not late for your class. You better hurry up, it's almost 9'o clock!" with a friendly smile. That kind of favor will make you feel I want to meet the person again. There is a different case. You dropped a book and it's right in front of the person, and he or she says, "Watch out your eyes! You almost hurt my foot, Gosh!" Can you feel same impression like the first person?
I really think the first impression is important as the impression after you know the person better. I usually determine nice person by how often they smile or laugh, how they talk, and how they listen you well. Most of time, my determination is right. However, the word 'exception' is not for all right cases.
I have a friend who keeping our friendship for 6 years. When I think about the first time I met him, I don't think he gave a good impression like now. He was not that friendly. Lots of my friends didn't want to be around him. Even one day, one of my friend cried because of him. He didn't do his work so that I could often see him who scorned by teachers. I thought he hangs around with notorious students in my school. However, after I got to know him, I realized all this first impression about him was totally wrong. Actually, he was a sweet guy who cares about other people. Even he didn't do his work, he actually knew all the information we learned so that he got a good score. He just don't want to get along with strangers so that still his first impression is not that good. When I ask my friends or people around me, their impression about me is similar after they knew me well and actually, I want to show true me by the first impression. However, through my friend's case, I realized first impression is important but it can't determine truely what kind of the person is. Remember! The definition of impression is 'A strong effect produced on the intellect, feelings, conscience' but I want to add this few word at the end- 'formed by either first time or later'.
