Am I pretty much done for?

I am going to be a senior in high school and it is the middle of summer. I haven’t even finished all my volunteer hours and I just got a job at my local movie theater, but I’m not sure that was the best idea because I still need to figure out what colleges I want to apply for; I just wanted to make a little money. Besides that fact, I don’t know what I want to major in, and I don’t really have the best SAT (1230) or ACT (27) scores. I have a academic GPA of 3.83, a total GPA of 3.86 (both unweighted), and a weighted GPA of 4.0. I’ve only taken 2 AP classes and 2 Honors classes, and I got a 2 on both of the AP exams. I think I’m more interested in science, but the grades I have gotten in the science classes don’t really prove that I’m good at it. I don’t want to go straight into the workforce either because I do want to go to college and major in something. I’m thinking about just going to Pasadena Community College (which isn’t bad at all) but I also want to see if I am capable of getting into universities or Cal States. I know that if I do apply to those colleges it will be a waste of money on the application because I will probably be going in as undeclared. I don’t want to waste money on changing a major either but honestly I’m going to end up doing that since I am very indecisive. I just feel stuck in a rut because I feel so behind in everything with nothing to motivate me. Here are more statistics about me if it applies to anything:
