what major for me?

<p>I'm a very ambitious person and have all the ambition I need to get through college. My problem though is that I don't know what field of study I want to go out in. I won't have the chance to try and figure it out while getting my generals out of the way because I'm graduating with an Associates degree this spring when I graduate high school. My intrests are language and culture. I also really like to travel and I love to be outside. My hobbies include hunting, hiking, fishing, boating, and nearly any outdoor activities. I want to incorporate my intrests into the field of study I want to go out in. I just don't know what that is. I know that I need a job where I'm continually learning something and not sitting at a desk all day. A desk job would be the death of me! I'm always up for a challenge and have very good academic standing so I'm ready to take on a challenging major. If any one has any idea what might be a good major for me, let me know. Thanks!</p>

<p>Just remember, don't feel obligaed to try and find a major that fits all your interests. I came to the same realization. I like so many things, and the hard part about is I like so many opposites, I love both language and culture and traveling and people, but I also love math and science and construction. Just remember, you can have side-hobbies and minors also. Or you can double major. </p>

<p>Perhaps you can try teaching language in a foreign country?</p>

<p>Conservation and land management---google "land management postions"
and you will get idea on whats available and whats required as far as education.---just an idea</p>

<p>Linguistics? International Relations? Some sort of cultural studies program? (Ie, East Asian Studies, American Studies...there are lots of interdiscinplinary programs that meld language and culture).</p>

<p>You pretty much described my interests. Consider anthropology or archaeology. </p>

<p>musicamusica's suggestion was a good one. One of my geology professors specializes in beach erosion and spends much of his time at various beaches. Not bad, eh?</p>

<p>Outdoor jobs:

<p>Also look at geography (human and/or physical) or environmental studies... </p>

<p>You have lots of options.</p>
