Great you are thinking about college. Challenge yourself academically as best you can but don’t over stretch. There’s wonderful journalism colleges and if you make Northwestern or otherwise you can have a great career.
Find activities of interest. Walk dogs. Get a job. Ref youth soccer. Do meals on wheels. Have your family help a refugee family. Whatever piques your interest - get involved. Two or three things.
If you have a community newspaper, Approaxh the editor. Maybe they’d let you shadow or even write articles covering sports or school board meeting, even if voluntary.
There’s a lot for you to get involved in. Think the larger picture. Find what would allow you to make an impact and give personal satisfaction. Don’t worry about relation to a major etc.
It’s great you have goals. You’re already on a great path. Good luck.
