Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Do you like going first or last most of the time
To me I'd rather go last as you get to see how other people do it si you can think of a way to do stuff by what they've done that done well so to me first is the worst

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

It all depends on what I am to do. If I'm feeling confident, then I prefer going first as I would only get more nervous of waiting. If I'm insecure about what I'm supposed to do, then I'd rather wait till somewhere in the middle.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Somewhere in between, the beginner gets alot of attention and everone judges you, last eveyone is bored and wants to leave and you get no attention or not able to concentrate.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

I'm more of a blue ribbon man myself.
I'm born on the 3rd of January so I'm used to 'going' first . On all roll calls I'm near the front because my last name starts with a 'b'.

Go no. 1!

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

I could really care less if I was first or not, just as long as I am not all the way at the last, I don't mind.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Depends on what it is. I like being "last" in a discussion, if that means that my input was finalizing. However, I also like being relatively close to the first speakers, in a discussion, b/c that gives me time to formulate what I am going to say and lets me word things off of what others have said--giving my points more weight in the active minds of others.

As far as doing physical things, I like being first, or near the front, b/c you are given more leniency if you don't do it well ;0) hehe But yeah, I like trying new things out first--I usually am the only one to answer out in class, things like that.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

I like to be the last person... I need to see what other people do first, and then I will have confident.
If I be first, I mess everything up.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

I'm really concerned about having my speeches and things perfect, so I usually go first, so I have no one to be compared to, and the teachers wont have anyone to compare me to and even curve the grade XD. Recently I had to do this crazy long monologue in my acting class, I was so insanely worried, I had that butterflies-in-the-stomach feeling, but once I went first and got it over with it was great since I could just c-h-i-l-l and watch everyone else go

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Depends on what it is. Jumping a ramp on a bike, last. Getting food, first. It just depends on what it is.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Somewhere in between because the first one and the last one has too much pressures.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

Second to last in games (using Mario Party as ref.), that way I can work on not making the same mistakes as others while giving the last person as hard a time as possible. But I haven't played Mario Party in awhile, so I'm not sure if my opinion's changed...

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

It really depends on the situation I am in. Sometimes I will go first if it suits me, sometimes last, and sometimes in the middle. Other times I just really do not care and will go for any spot.

Example: If this was a line for free money, of course I would want to go first. If it was a line to run 3 miles for school, I would probably want to go last. Other times I will probably just be in the middle, or not care at all.

It all depends really. It is too general of a question.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

I like to be second in most things like queues, etc. But on games, I have to be player one. I don't like to be first nor last in a queue, because the first or last people get noticed the most. I don't wish to be a part of that. ^-^

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

If it were a round of Russian Roulette, I'd go last. If it were a que at a shop or something, you'd bet your ass I'd wanna be first...

It all depends on the situation.

Re: Do you like going first or last or somewere in between

I guess I would want to go first because I want to get it over with. Instead of being in the middle or last and worry about how good others are and how bad you are, especially in presentations, I would rather go first so that I won't have that kind of pressure in the end.

Besides, others we shall not mention, but in presentation, the first is always the bravest unless you have complete confidence in yourself.
