My Goals In Life

I'm finding it difficult to figure out what I want to do with my life.  Yes, still.  Good news, I now have a better part time job.  It will pay for rent and groceries which is great.  I'm very happy about it.  But I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I want to do with my future.  I do have some ideas though.
  • own my own bakery
  • work in customer service for an animal shelter
  • cook meals for homeless people
  • get back into web design and do contract work
  • go back to school for marketing (and go from there)
See, there are quite a few cool things I could do.  But they are often so different!  And the thing is, I've got interests beyond those things too!  I'm going to write a brief list of my interests
  • swimming
  • baking
  • web design
  • going out dancing
  • cooking
  • helping people
  • sewing
  • photography
  • listening to music
It's so hard to figure things out!!!

Why is life so confusing?
