what to be?

I have no idea what I want to do in life, so I don't even know what major I want to start looking into. I like biology, but I know that you can't do much with just a bachelors in biology. I don't think I want to be a doctor because it's too much work and I want to focus on family eventually, too.. unless somehow there's some way that that can happen...? I am good at writing (both creative and scientific-style) and I enjoy (biology) research. could somebody help me? thanks!

Be a science writer.

And doctors do have families, you know.

Go to a college that will allow you to explore many areas before you have to decide on a major. You're 17 or 18; you don't have to know what you want to do with your life. You don't have to decide on a major until the end of your sophomore year in college.

Relax.
