Can I bug you guys for a minute?

Okay here's the deal. I will be 20 in March and I still have no idea what I want to do with my life career-wise. I was always a straight A student in school and I was going to go to college for marine biology but a lot a family issues happened and I had to put that off for a little while. Now I have a job that I hate and am still nowhere near going back to school because I have no idea what I want to do now. I am still interested in marine biology but not enough to want to do it for the rest of my life but I'm also interested in photography, writing, archeology, history, and marine wildlife. I just don't know what to do! I can't decide on one and I can't really think of something that blends all these together and if I don't do something soon I will be stuck in this position forever. So I guess I'm just looking for any suggestions, if anyone can give me any. And I am so sorry that this is so long. Thanks in advance.

    ALL of the interests you list are unrealistic. If you get a degree in any of them, you will probably be unemployed.

    Take the "Strong Interest Inventory" test to get a list of practical studies that fit your profile and may result in a real career.

    Maybe he's bi-polar Or maybe he just doesn't think the people he's around at the moment will "approve" of you so he acts like an *** around them...then when he's around people whose opinion he doesn't care about, he likes you again. Those type of guys aren't good...

    Try photography and writing. There's money to be made in journalism.
