Still remember my first phone, Motorola C200 (I think?). This pebble of a phone was solid, you could probably get away with using it as a hammer a few times. Not as sturdy as that legendary Nokia, but still.

Sadly, considering where I lived (not US, and not EU), I strongly believe that nobody would give a damn about the report.
We had one of our lectors straight up tell us in front of full class (18 ppl: 16 guys and 2 gals), that we are going to use our diplomas as a hot pot stand. And we are here just for show, to hook up with smart guys. Yes, those were his exact words.
Nothing in me or the other girl suggested that we were attending lections to flirt with someone. Especially knowing that both of us were quite diligent students.
He also was very open and proud about him being sexist. It's still baffling to me that people like that exist, succeed, and have a bloody confidence to take pride in their shittiness.
I understand what you mean, I have the same feeling - everything is a but less vivid now.
I am no expert, but my guess that is happening because you have much more experience with the world now. As we age, the number of things that will be completely new to us becomes smaller and smaller. We just have more experience, and even if we haven't seen/felt/heard something particular, chances are, that your brain still won't be completely surprised - it will be able to find some experiences that you have which are close to that new thing.
But when you are a kid - there is a whole world of things you didn't experience at all or didn't experience enough to understand fully. That's why everything was so vivid - there was a lot of "truly" new experiences.
Nothing. I just do not want to and don't see any positives in me switching.
Sorry - my reply won't be really helpful to you, but I still want to say it because I think I have a bit different perspective on that problem and maybe that will be of use to someone.
I actually use that "forgot for half a year" approach to "curate" my wishlist. I usually aggresively wishlist a bunch of games during game events and so on, and then, about once a year I return to my wishlist and ask myself, if I still remember what were in those games that caught my eye, are they still interesting to me? If I do not, and looking at trailer and/or screenshots does not hype me up again, then it does not worth spending on (at least right now). Then I remove those that I decided to not play at all from the wishlist.
