New Toy Syndrome
http://www.thiscellardoor.com/blog/entry/new_toy_syndrome/
Oh no! I suffer from new toy syndrome. I’m never going to get anywhere in life. confused? Okay, I’ll explain. I treat everything in my life like a new toy. When I first see it, I have to have it. Once I have it, it’s the only thing I play with. After some time, I see something new, and I forget about my current toy and the cycle starts over again. it’s horrible. Sometimes, about 5 cycles later, I realize that I want my first toy, but I’ve already gotten rid of it by then. my future is destroyed. It explains why I’m not successful. I want to switch majors everyday. design is new…ooh fun. ooh animation is new…bye design. ooh video is really new…bye everything else. The worst part is that I do it w/ people too. It’s no wonder I have a bunch of short-term mediocre friendships. same thing w/ boyfriends. I tire of them and dump them when I find something new. I’m such a horrible person. btw this is my new definition for the previously defined, appetizer combo syndrome. :( I’m doomed. I guess I shouldn’t get an apartment w/ people. Although, maybe it would cure me, b/c I’d be forced to enjoy their company or maybe they will be different and I won’t have issues w/ them at all. Oh well, I guess it doesn’t matter. I’m prolly gonna end up in the dorms anyway. Sigh.
