Jane of all trades

If you know me, then you know that I get bored particularly quickly. I've heard that only boring people get bored, but I mostly just have ADD when it comes to sticking with something. Now that makes me sound like  I quit everything I start, but that's not the case either. I tend to fall in love with something and get a little intense about it, then I get bored with it for a few months and come back to it.

Thanks to that aspect of my personality, I've delved into playing drums, piano, trumpet, guitar, and violin. So far I have stuck with all of those except piano, and I just got my violin. I also took Spanish in high school, Biblical Hebrew in college, and have tried to teach myself ASL. I like to work on computers, am interested in photography, and am an avid gamer.

The only problem with all of these great things, is I don't know how to keep up with all of these interests. It would be ridiculous to practice every instrument every day because I would get burnt out pretty fast, and multiple languages in a day would probably be stressful as well.

I am pretty much the same when it comes to career options too. My mom is right, I want to do more with my life than I have time for.
