It is as simple as that. I've known this for years. The tendency to develop habits quickly and quite concretely, the fickle but in-depth interest in things, the high achiever and over thinker... even the simple fact that I'm naturally anxious and can be both a good loser and a terrible loser depending on how I've approached the game.
It is probably the only thing I can remember for many life and awareness classes during a spare lesson delightfully called 'Options' in high school. Drug, alcohol and sex awareness, career options, study skills—it was that kind of class - procrastination central. Our teacher—the only other thing I remember from the class, the man dressed like a pirate from black longer hair held in a ribbon and white loose flowy shirt and black vest—described a set of things that made an addictive personality and stated that they were most likely to develop severe drug addiction. Good thing I never thought to try drugs is all I can think.
What am I addicted to at the moment? Make-up. It isn't a new addiction since I get it every time I'm on holiday however too much time and just enough money also allows for my other lesser known addiction... shopping. I'm perhaps even less of a shopper than I am a make-up artist... certainly more complex shopoholics actually set my teeth on edge (think The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopoholic - I hate that character sooo much). However as soon as I have money it just seems to go.
Where did my money go these holidays? To supporting my make-up addiction... Now if only I could practice USING all this stuff - the only thing I can guarantee I'll use with high frequency is that deodorant lol.
