Best of luck man, I'm somewhere in that area myself. If you haven't graduated yet, I highly recommend you talk to a career counselor at your school. If all they have is a bulletin board, make some noise until they hook you up with someone who can help out in a hands-on way. Knowing one's options is probably the best way to figure out how to set oneself up in such a way that a lot of different paths are available.

I say "probably" because I didn't do that and now I wish I had. Office jobs don't have to be forever and having insurance must be pretty nice . . . Anyway, of course choose something you enjoy studying, but it might be worth your while to figure out how you'd like to use it.
