<p>Hi! I'm a senior in highschool, and I'm really confused about what I should major in. In the future, I think it'd be cool to have a really adventurous job where I could explore, change lives, learn new things, meet tons of new people, and have a lot of fun! :) I feel like I'll need a job that's not too repetitive (I hate routines) and I don't want to have a typical office/cubicle type job either. I think I'd want a job where I'm pretty much on my feet all day or at least pretty busy mentally (i'd prefer to move around too though). It'd be awesome to have a fun, adventurous type job where I'd get to help people as well. :D I love challenges and I love learning new things, it's just sooo hard to pick a major because I want to make sure I have a job that's fun and exciting. I just want to hear some of your guys's ideas for fun exciting jobs/majors that might interest me because I want to be able to get a job that i'm actually really REALLY excited to go to :) I might major in music because I really love music, but I think i'll need another major that's more secure job wise (it might be hard to find a job with just a music degree. If i can pick a better major, I'll probably just minor in music or just take a few music classes). So throw all your ideas out there for me please! I'll decide what I want to do for myself, but maybe you all have some suggestions/ideas that I haven't thought about yet :) Thanks for your help!</p>
<p>Perhaps archaeology? It is my understanding that the field is evolving as the scientific community becomes more prominent in this modern world. Archaeologists need to be able to travel to examine, say, a fossil site (rare but not unheard of) and then research both in a laboratory and outside on the field. Plus you get to learn about past cultures and old ways of living, etc.</p>
<p>As many science fields, the competition is rough, so I can imagine that a Ph.D would be necessary to even get considered. I believe this takes 8+ years, so patience would be a necessary virtue. </p>
<p>Music and its related careers I know very little of, except that most music conservatories require their players to hold at least a Master’s degree (about 6 years of college.) Music therapy might be of interest, though.</p>
