It doesn't have to stick to anything. You can switch any time you decide you want to use something different.
If you want the benefits of full synthetic (better flow when cold, better resistance to breakdown when hot), then get full synthetic. If you want lesser benefits but lesser cost, then get a synthetic blend. If you want lesser cost still, then get conventional oil. Use whatever you want and can afford.
