Maybe a doctor since all of my cousins and brother are in the medical field already as well as my mother and they keep nagging me. I'm not really interested in anything though, and I don't really mind being in school for a long time so I guess it won't be too bad.

Back up plan might be in business or music. I play piano, and I've completed advanced rudiments, intermediate harmony, and the practical exam for level 10 last year, just need two more courses for music history. I might take ARCT (the professional level) but I don't really want to practice 4 hours a day minimum ahahah.

Do what you want.

Your life isn't about meeting certain standards that aren't even made by you.

Apply to the US Marine or US Army as an active duty soldier when I am in the college.
Then focus on Engineering/Naval Architect field.

I think it is better to sell hotdogs instead of making something I don't like, I'm a youtuber, and I'll be a youtuber, no, not for money, but because I like this job

I'd love to be a bioengineer, either genetics or neurological based. Biology is incredibly interesting. I want to help people but I'd hate to be a doctor, it's not worth the time, money, and effort in my opinion.

Wait, a human resource manager! I love organising things logically. I don't know how to describe how satisfying it is. Or a secretary? I believe they do that too.

Otherwise, I'd be happy to earn money on the side as a writer, composer, or fashion designer, which are currently hobbies :)

I didn't want to practice crazy amount of hours each day either when I started studying music. However, if you do choose to study music education or musicology there will be less practical exams and therefore lower demands on the amount of time you have to sit alone in a practice room. There are also a lot of other musical studies that have less focus on practice, and more on for example music history or composition.

Remember, this is your choice. Your mom can't choose for you, nor live your life and there is nothing wrong with trying out different things to see if they suit your interests. Good Luck!

Thanks for the advice! I don't know, I get really inspired when I listen to people play the piano but I'm honestly not that good. I'm bad at composition, since there are way too many rules that I always manage to break (I barely passed intermediate harmony). I just enjoy playing the piano when it sounds good and I get that satisfaction...might I also add that I have only played classical music up to this point, pop music rhythms confuse the heck out of me. Also my harmony teacher specifically told me not to go into music since there's barely a career path for it. I'm really confused on what I want to do honestly I don't even know what I want at this point.

Oh Nooo I don't compose man. All I've learned is how to write in baroque era style with help from a figured bass LOL

As for regular old music..well I guess if you come over to my house

I wish. My brother is in orthodontics and my parents basically cut him off since he didn't get into med school.

I hope you all achieve prosperity and enjoy what you do. Very interesting career choices as well. Below I provided a basic list of sources that can help you with anything you're currently struggling with or wish to learn (I currently use the first two listed):

- Khan Academy (Ex: Math, Computing, Science, etc.)
https://www.khanacademy.org

-Codecademy (Ex: HTML, Python, Java, SQL, etc.)
https://www.codecademy.com

-Wolfram (Ex: Art, Science, Engineering, Business, etc.)

Mastering Welding/Fabricating ATM with my teacher so far have gotten done and mastered MIG/Stick working on TIG atm for those who know what I'm talking about. In future I am interested in maybe doing underwater welding.

Only thing I'm interested in is computer engineering. It's fun, and everything about computers are interesting. This year, I'm going to try to get some money, and build my first gaming PC to get some experience and for the fun

I hope you like math.... lots and lots of math...
