It's quite typical for thoughtful individuals to engage with ideas beyond passive TV consumption. You're fortunate to be among those who actively seek out new passions. Finding these interests often requires effort and self-discovery, rather than being handed to you. The key is to clarify your goals, which can start with simple actions like enjoying music.
It's common for many people, particularly as we age, to experience this feeling. When it happens, just shift your attention elsewhere—read more, play an instrument if possible, engage in sports, or any activity that suits you. Your interest will likely return soon. You might also explore computer topics you haven't yet encountered, such as Linux, programming, content creation, virtual machines, or Beowulf clusters.
It even happens to me at 14—I’m just sitting on my chair, going through Wow Warzone, and that’s about it since my main game is Wow. I’ve got nothing else to do.

It was a sudden shift during my freshman college year. I lost interest in games like CS:S, BF2, and similar titles. I can't recall the exact reason, but I became really into anime, especially fansubs (around ten years ago). A few years later, I found myself drawn back to anime too, though I still enjoy it. Now I mostly stick to older content, occasionally checking out new stuff. The anime experience also influenced my gaming tastes—especially JRPGs. I’ve been playing them for about nine years, and every couple of years I feel the urge to revive the project, turning it into a tight JDM clone. When I lose interest, I often waste money on games or PC upgrades. It’s normal for passions to ebb and flow, just like with my car—sometimes I want to restore it, other times I just let it sit.
