I don't know what do do with my future?

Question

I'm going to be a senior in high school next year and I'm starting to feel really nervous about my college/career choice. I have good grades and everything, but I don't know what I want to spend the rest of my life doing. For a while, I thought that I wanted to study and work with computer science, but after taking a comp sci class, I realized I didn't want to spend my life in a chair looking at a computer screen. I want a job in a field that pays well because most of my tuition will be from student loans or scholarships, but I also want a job that doesn't require constant sitting ex. a job in the outdoors (if possible). 
Any ideas for future careers?

civil, mechanical, electrical or environmental Engineering will be the right career for you, if you are good at math and science, because you will be required to do field work and desk job as well. There are other career options as mechanic, plumber, electrician, technicians in industrial plants, construction management that are more of a hands on job. And don't worry, even if it turns out you do not like your career, you can change it after a few years. Start working and saving up from now so you won't struggle with loans.

It's best to be completely flexible in your approach to work and jobs, you just can't predict how things will go, and just because you may have a plan, don't expect it to just unfold the way you thought it would because you, 'Deserve' it. Try lots of different things, you'll see what it's like once you're out in the job market, you might have to take something you didn't necessarily want to (maybe more than once, or twice) Don't let that put you in a spin, it's just how life is. Remember that no job is ever, 'Perfect'
