Being erratic

There are two kinds of erraticity. To put it simply, there's the good one and the bad one.

Serene used to say that I'm erratic... I guess it's just because I'm too dramatic, and sometimes will state my first inclinations immediately (sometimes without much thinking)... For example, one day I might go into her room, looking rather sombre and depressed, but somehow Serene decided to give me a treat, I can suddenly be very happy and overly excited... That's me... Emotions play great roles in my life. I don't know whether my sort of erraticity is the good one or the bad one, but I guess it ain't that bad afterall, coz it's harmless...

Now let me talk about the negative sort of erraticity. I guess this is linked to the issue of temperament. Some people are just purely erratic, as they can be one of the best person you've ever seen, friendly, caring, hospitable,sincere... but on the extreme end when their weatherman turns cranky, they can be extremely rude, moody and arrogant. This kind of erraticity is just way too scary, and sometimes it just makes you feel that you don't exactly know the true person afterall. And maybe... The true personality is the erraticity.

Sometimes it's scary to be around erratic people, cause you just can't predict what their next line would be, and when the volcano will erupt. Many times, you'll come back wondering, what had just happened? What is the problem? You're just shocked...

Erratic people add colors to life. Definitely, having positive erraticity is way better than the negative one. But well, I guess this is life and every individual is unique.
