Life-stage Crises
Those of us who are familiar with Erik Erikson's 8 stages of life will know that Erikson talks about the 8 different crises that one has to negotiate as he/ she goes through different age periods. For the most part, Erikson's theory has been relatively accurate for me. In fact, I am going through an irritating crisis now.
Age: 23 -24

Crisis: Hole A vs Hole B
I am at a very irritating stage in life. This is when I have been gymming consecutively for the past 3 weeks, and shed a couple of kilos. Right now, at this moment, I need to make a choice as to which hole on my belt to choose. You see, hole A will make the belt looser, and hole B will make my belt tighter.
But hole A is currently too loose for me and if I use that hole, my pants tend to keep dropping. Hole B is too tight and it's difficult for me to breathe if I use that hole. Argh. Which belt hole should I choose? I don't like having to pull up my jeans all the time. But not being able to breathe sucks. Ok wait. Can't really suck that much when there's difficulty breathing. Breathing out is fine, but not the sucking in part. And did I hear someone say tight jeans ain't too good for the b**ls?
Argh. What a life crisis. I need counselling. Maybe I should just eat more and go back to when hole A used to be perfect. (it's an easier route than trying to make hole B the new perfect hole.)
And for those of you who read this blog and somehow see me in class, I know you'll be tempted to ask questions.
DON'T.
