People our age have been fed this crap that "If you enjoy your job nothing else will matter" and it's a load of bull.
Amen, a realist. But don't think you'll get that "insert dream degree here" and it'll be any different. You will, however, have more money to pursue your own interests. Which, sooner or later, you'll understand, are more important than having a job you like.
I was an avid woodworker and put food on the table for 2.5 years after college this way. I mean I really loved woodworking and was pretty darn good at it from my high school background. It soon became mundane and boring building custom kitchens, trade show booths, and museum exhibits for other people. I did some very interesting work in regards to cabinetmaking, but it still was not that satisifying. Very few cabinetmakers ever get to build the diverse projects I did, but still, having an engineering degree to pay for w/o the engineering pay was a bee-otch. If I'd have made a decent living at it, that would be different, but it paid crap. And without sufficient play money, life is really a monotonous boring grind working for "The Man" who pulls up in a lux'd out Mercedes and leaves at 2pm everyday to play golf. Meanwhile I was trying to keep my Ford Escort running and only sustaining my life, not moving forward even enough to keep up with inflation. It was a good motivator though, very good.
Screw college for now. Go find yourself a good mountain town with some good terrain and learn to ski, snowboard, kayak, operate a lift, guide a river...whatever, and enjoy your youth. I have a friend who did this until he was 25, then he got an engineering degree. Lucky stiff enjoyed some of the best powder days ever working swing shift. He could ride knee-deep fresh powder in the morning, then head out for work with burning thighs, raccoon tan, and a huge freaking grin on his face. He tired of this after about 5-6 years, then headed off to school. In the meantime he was a machinist and made really good money considering. He shared rent with other bachelors to keep things affordable, made some good friends, and doesn't seem to regret any of it. Now, he's more mature than most kids graduating college straight from high school. He appreciates that he spent some of his youth being a kid, and also appreciates his new job a hell of a lot more than some of the thankless, coddled, punks that have had mommy and daddy putting off their launch into the working world well into their twenties. I watched most of these types types of kids flunk out in less than one year, seriously, A LOT of them. And those that made it, I've watched several of them have some serious teething issues when it comes time to "work" for a living and grow up, suck it up and do your damn job.
I did the college route and went straight out of high school into engineering curriculum. Engineering is a good field, I'd suggest Civil if you want lots of rural town options when you graduate. But as all jobs seem to, it goes in cycles. I graduated into a dud market and struggled as stated above. A piece of paper is not worth much if you can't find work. And college loans kick in sooner than you think.
I have two quotes on my desk that I have chartered my life by.
You should not confuse your career with your life.
If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and will never achieve, it's full potential, that word would be "meetings".
Hope this helps. Don't be a huge hurry to grow up, it is seriously over rated. However, now that I'm 12 years into a good job. I own my home, I've got some kickass toys and enjoy them a lot. I also appreciate them a lot more than most people because I did have to struggle quite a bit to get here. Struggling, albeit painful, makes things stick better, and earned rewards are all that much sweeter when you do reach your goals.
On that note, I have neice with a psych degree and she's only making 12.24/hour two or three years out of college. If you like money, you seriously need to reconsider the psych angle. If you stay the course, plan on a masters or PhD at the minimum if you want to earn a good living. Otherwise, you're always someone elses peon no matter how good you do. I know, I just listened to my neice rant for two hours last night about all the BS she has to put up with, and she's contributing a lot for her employer and watching them get the credit for her work, and they get the money, not her.
