Moderate or Extreme?

When ask to fill up a feeback form, very rarely will I tick the extreme columns. It seems so hard for me to give an 'excellent' or 'very bad' in my evaluation.

I am interested in many things. Guitar, piano, badminton, photography and travelling to name a few. But I am not passionate enough to pursue them. In fact, I am good in many things, but not an expert in any. 'Jack of all trades, master of none'.

When people ask if I like Chemical Engineering, I would answer 'I dont hate it, neither do I like it. It's OK!' Until now, I still dont know why I chose what I chose.

Amidst a crowd of people, I would not go around socialising as some people do, nor would I hide in a lil' corner all by myself. Instead, I would find myself with a small company of friends.

These are but a few symptoms of a moderate person. One who hardly chooses the extremes. The line in the middle often (it's not ALWAYS though) takes precedence. Is this a good trait to behold? Maybe yes, maybe no. I dont know. I often envy the extremists....they seem so convinced of what they want. But then again, I'm glad I'm not as ignorant as them on 'the other side' of things.

If ever there is an extreme thing in my life, it would be the fact that I am extremely moderate...

Welcome aboard! I can truly identify with your inclination towards moderation. Maybe "rats" are moderate creatures?
