fruityloops: There is a ton of advice on this forum. You are asking yourself very important questions, that so many people have to ask themselves when they are in this field. Why don’t you read through a bunch of threads that talk about these choices, and see what touches you.

You’ve said a lot about yourself, but still we can’t decide anything for you. You are at a great school for performing arts - surely there are profs and mentors who know you better than we do, with whom you can talk out all of these ideas. Since you are at a school where you can explore and study any of these areas, it doesn’t sound like an emergency that you need to transfer, move, switch gears. Probably you need to take a few different courses and explore, look for a summer internship to try some of your new ideas, etc.

This is a place where people help each other find resources and information, share their stories and perspectives. We can’t come up with a life plan for you, however. When you have some definite goals and questions, we’ll do our best to answer them.
