As Aspect of Myself
by Claudia Ramos (2008-09, AV2 B)

When I first heard the subject of the writing I took the plunge. 

I choose a characteristic of my personality and put it down in black and white straight away.

Sooner rather than later, though I start to change my mind and take several more options into account by thinking: I am kind, but not that much when under pressure; polite, but not when people address me in a rude manner nor when they are behaving badly in front of me; curious, although to be honest, I am not interested in matters such as sports, economy or big stars' social lives, and so on.

The answer then starts to get more and more complicated as time goes by, and I find it very difficult to find a simple adjective.  After many hours thinking I realise upon a simple word: indecision.

However, is it so important an aspect of myself, or do I have more important peculiarities?  Very rarely have I a quick answer to this question and probably, I will never be one hundred per cent sure about it.

Does it happen because I do not know myself enough?  If it is so, how can I manage this simple question?  Does indecision define my personality?   Probably it does, or maybe not.  I find it hard to get the right answer, especially when thinking on "Me".  This is the more difficult thing to do, and even more complicated to portray.

After reading, I can infer from the above lines that, "yes indecision is in my mind".

Or maybe not.
