Reaching Intimacy-vs.-Isolation Stage

Wow. Time's really ticking faster and faster. Yesterday is just like I am entering prep school, and now I'm already 18. Wonder what changes will I undergo reaching adulthood? Let's see, hmm.. I still won't give up watching cartoons, that's for sure!! This is the only quickest way to lose stress, haha! Well, maybe learning how to drive 'cause I have already reached the legal age now, having the privilege to vote during presidential elections, but it looks like there's no one in the candidates that favored me this coming 2010 election, *sigh* travelling out of country without a guardian (OH YEAH!!! ^^) and a lot more.

ERIKSON'S THEORY

There's one more thing that I know will change in me reaching young adulthood, that is reaching the 6th stage of Erik Erikson's Developmental Stages which is called the Intimacy vs. Isolation stage. Well obviously, love develops in this stage. Hmmm...haha!! Not yet, not now, maybe crushes, YES, CRUSHES will do but not yet love, LOL. I have many crushes, you know, haha! Tsaka I don't really think any 18-year-old will understand true love. I'm not saying Erikson's theory is wrong, kasi parang nag-dedevelop palang yung feeling of love natin at the age of 18. Maybe reaching 20's will be the right time to feel true love.

MY THEORY

(Sa mga ayaw pang ma-fall, pero malapit nang ma-fall.) Sabi nila hindi raw nakokontrol ng brain ang heart, sabi ko naman edi unahan na ng brain ang heart bago pa man siya i-kontrol nito. In short, you won't be able to fall in love with somebody if you make the right move and that is the job of the brain. (Tips sa mga mala-teleserye ang love life, LOL!)

CONCLUSION

Reaching 18 years old doesn't mean that we have to have the "special someone" in our life already. There are a lot more important things in life that we must first accomplish before going in to a relationship like of course studies, right? Enjoy your life! Learn how to have fun! Wait for the RIGHT TIME to fall for the RIGHT ONE, 'di ba? Para walang regret regret. God is always there to guide you, He has plans for you! Wait for God's signal, He will give you your "right one" when the right time comes. ^^
