  2. They say I am just average. I don’t believe that. I am extraordinary, I am amazing, I am witty and fun and crazy and out there. I am everything but average. I don’t know why people have to label people. Those who believe they are average will never accomplish anything.

  3. average. that’s what i am. what i always have been. its a painful realization really. i always dreamt of being something else. of being extraordinary. maybe not beautiful but pretty. maybe not genius but smart. maybe not artistic but thrifty. anything but average.

  4. Who’s to say what “average” actually is? There is no definite answer to this question because it is all truly in the eyes of the beholder. I know that sounds dumb, but I could be completely average to one person and stand out to someone else. So who is to say that someone is average? There’s one answer to this. No one. Absolutely no one.

  10. Blue eyes, brown hair. 5’4. Average for a girl my age and ethnicity. Nothing special, nothing unusual, nothing original about how God made me. Only my personality differs me from the millions of identicals. And I made that myself.

  18. My life is average. I don’t do anything out of the ordinary usually. I just sit and think about how average I am sometimes.

I want to be extraordinary. Average is just average. Average is what you settle for, not what you strive for.

  19. average is the mean of all pieces of information, data, and other things. it takes into account the most extreme and the most simple. it is considered by many to be the norm, the accepted, the most familiar. whether it be manners, patterns, procedures or clothes.

  20. not your average joe’s is actually rather average. But, that doesn’t matter because we’re all going there after work today. It’s been a long week, quite average, but long because we aren’t used to working, let alone working a five-day week. Yes, we are teachers; no, we don’t work in the summer, which is quite above average, awesome actually. Teaching is not your average profession

  21. It doesn’t exist. There is no such thing as ‘average’! It is mind’s ‘maya-creation’ – we think it’s real, but it doesn’t exist. The average student, the average housewife, the average age… a figure that points to a nebulous space that we can’t pin down, except by coming to an imprecise figure.

  22. It was an average day at work. James stopped by my cubical at 9:15 am to ask me to dinner and I declined-again. He just wouldn’t get a hint through that red headed head of his. I would never date him. Not until I found out what happened to my brother. Not until I found Michael.

  24. The average guy. There’s nothing too special about him, nothing about him that one can really make fun of for too long. The average girl. Pretty, but only in glancing. Can hold a conversation, but the words are not remarked upon afterward. Put the two together, make the two fall in love, and they are anything but average. There is nothing more illuminating than love in terms of one’s special attributes that were hidden before.

  25. I have no clue what average is do you know what it is

  27. Being average is boring. It’s dull. I would never want to be average. the key word to live by should be eccentric..crazy..weird..that is what one’s life should be. Average is normal and bleak. Why should one go through life living and being like everybody else. The key to a happy life isn;t being average..it’s being eccentric.

  31. My life is average. Your life is average. But is average really what we want in life? At the end of the day or at the end of my life will I say, “Wow, what an average life…I am so glad that I lived a mediocre and average life.” I believe I will want above average; whatever the definition for above average will be for me.

  32. a word. just one word that sets things in the middle. people are stuck there. few go beyond. it’s just a word. a symbol for set standards. who even makes the cut as average? is the average even worth it? no. average is “normally” wrong.

  35. Average: The tendency to be alike to most people of your social group, right? Well I don’t want to be that. I don’t want to settle for average, alright. To me that’s mediocre. I want to be spectacular.

  36. Average is what you get when you add all the numbers together and divide it by however many numbers there are. People can be described as average. Many things can be described as average, like “this is an average book” meaning it’s not EXCITING but it’s not b-o-r-i-n-g.

    by Damaris on 09.16.2011
  37. Average is something I don’t want to be. I don’t want to be that number in the middle. I don’t really want to be the number on top either, but the middle is definitely not for me. I can be so much more than that. I can exceed the curse of mediocrity

    by Chris on 09.16.2011
