This Sounds Really Bad but......

This may sound really self explanatory... but what exactly do architects do.

I took a few classes while in high school, and am about to go to college. I loved designing floorplans and customizing each room with autocad and many other cool designs, but I was wondering if any proffesional architects could describe what they do.

I know for a fact that no one person does the exact same thing but I'd like to know what I'm getting myself into.

For example, do you go into a firm and work from 8am to 5pm drawing floorplans, electrical plans, etc...

Or do you draw a few plans, sell them, and then come up with more ideas...

I appreciate any replies,

Chris
