How do you deal with FOMO?

Club Penguin Journey

As a kid I've always wanted to buy the membership, but money was tight and the only game that I could afford was Minecraft and that was money from birthday, Christmas, and every other holiday in a year. So most of the cloths and accessories were free or events.

Now I have money, but the time is not on my side. I wanna play the game, earn some coins to buy the monthly catalogue and any other event stuff that pops up, but I can't just play the game all the time. Don't get me wrong, I love to try to get any achievements, earn my money and even make some friends along the way, but I don't have the time.

I even missed meeting the mascots for the 1M anniversary (this is due to time zone, but it also happened when I was not home).

Some things look like they appear once and then gone forever. I might be mistaken, apologies for that if that is the case, but sometimes I feel bad for not getting a pin or something that is ONLY for that special occasion, like Todd.

Will I be able to get some pins later on or are they gone? How do you deal with this feeling?

Sorry if this has come as a rant, it is not my intention.
