Dont know what I want to do with my life?

College Life
1

Let me give a background.

I am 19 years old, second year at community college, majored in computer science.
I work a Part Time job along with school about 30 hours a week and I usually have enrolled for 8-12 units a semester.

Heres the issue.

Ever since I was a kid I had a passion for how computers worked, and how they were built, and like small things here and there about hacking, and website developing, and things that pretty much the average person wouldn’t know about computers. I’d also play a lot of computer games which expanded my knowledge of computers as well in terms of how games are written, what codes write what games, simple stuff like that.
I’d build computers and thats about the biggest thing I’ve ever really done in terms of computers, and I’ve been doing it since a young age.

I decided to pick up on computer programming my first year in community college and started out great with an A and had interest in the subject and it didnt seem boring to me.
But for the past 5 months I’ve lost complete motivation and hope for myself in the field as I’ve fallen greatly behind because of ulterior reasons, and I’ve just overall lost interest in the subject itself and dont see myself doing it anymore.

Other than that being an issue for me, I’ve lost complete interest in everything for the past few months and cant see myself doing any other profession which is really worrying me.
I haven’t talked to a counselor yet, and dont know how to address this issue and I was hoping if there is anyone out there can help me with this because it is giving me lots of stress and anxiety not knowing what I want to do with my future.

I have a passion for music and record rap songs and have been growing recently but I dont see that as something I’d be able to do to make a living off of unless I devote all my time and effort to it and even then, it’s still risky.
But in terms of something im passionate about, music has been the only other thing for me.

So again, I really would appreciate some help from someone, Im desperate.

Thank you in advance.

You could try to get a ProTools certificate or something so you could do mixing and mastering. But that’s way less desirable than having a real college degree.

Were you eventually going to apply to transfer?

Yes I planned on transferring to UC Irvine.

Maybe you could combine your two interests with a degree in Music Technology?

one of the most useful pieces of advice I was ever given from a teacher was “do what you’re good at and in your free time do what you like”
My honest suggestion is that you should probably try to do something related to business and comp sci. Perhaps something in finance or computer information.
I suggest that because business is one of the most general majors ever. it’ll help you land a job anywhere. its basically the college equivalent of being undeclared (EVERY FIELD has something business related). and comp sci is something you’ve already invested quite a bit of your college education into. so it would be a waste to switch (unless you think you can find something that you are truly good at)

This is some good advice I appreciate it, can you give me some ideas as to what business fields relate to computers?
