Silver open in 12 Stages
Stage 1. Fear
The point where I had not yet picked it up, and had just been struggling with the bronze for rather a long time and after reading about how hard it is on the forums I was very wary of what to expect from the silver.
Stage 2. Eagerness
I’m flying round this thing, it can’t be that hard, surely....... (Fool!!)
Stage 3. Shock
Ok, this is different. What’s going on here?
Spin..... What the hell! Oh crap.
Stage 4. Excitement
Oh my god, I got across. How did I do that? Then end up right back at the beginning after scratching my head, which leads to;
Stage 5. Confusion
I got across a couple of times but still not sure how, time to think.
Stage 6. Desperation
There has got to be a decent clue in one of these forum posts, please god don’t make me trawl through every single one. Then I spot people opening it who have had it less time..... Moving on.....
Stage 7. Anger
Arrrrrrrrrrgh! Why won’t you open goddammit!
Stage 8. Acceptance
Ok, I’m never gonna open the damn thing. I’ll just leave it on my desk and look for inspiration, do a few pictures, make some keyrings and design the orange.
Time passes . Many..... many month later.
Stage 9. Guilt
Keep getting asked at work if I’ve opened it yet. How long has it been? Haven’t you opened that thing yet? (NO...... No it’s not open yet.... OKAY!!)
Stage 10. Rejuvenation
Ok, time for another look at this. Hey, wow, I still remember the old moves. Gonna do this. That revo feeling returns.
Stage 11. Disbelief
OH MY GOD, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, IT’S OPEN!! HALLELUJAH!!
Stage 12. Withdrawal
Kind of miss it being sat on my desk mocking me. Feel sad that the journey is over.
Need a new fix.
Bring on the Gold.
And so the cycle continues....
