To be, or not to be....

I have no idea what I want to do with my life now. I've went to two fall semesters, going to classes to get my associates in photography degree. But now, in the spring, i dont know what i want to do. i love taking pictures, but its a lot of work just to get an associates. and most photography jobs want you to have a bachelors. and then what? you're at a photo studio, taking pictures of people all day. i dont like portrait photography that much. i just dont like dealing with people, i guess. i like taking pictures of my friends and family, but thats about it. i really like taking pictures of animals. how do you get a job in that field? someone can only teach you so much about taking pictures of animals. then you go out in the field and take pictures yourself. thats what i want to do. i want to go out there and take pictures of the animals i love, and be able to show the world what we're doing to their habitats, and them. but how do i do that? i dont have any money, and there isnt exactly an agency that will give you a job like that. i dont even know how people get into that field and make money doing what they love.
and now im really into drawing. i mean, i've always been good at it, i guess. but lately, i've been drawing a lot more. manga is definitely getting my interest. i like drawing manga style. and i've always watched anime. im such a nerd, i know :3 but thats another thing that i dont know how to get in to. i know that there's money to be made in it, but its just like photography; you have to find your way in, and be really good at it.
so i guess im stuck. i dont want to be at a dead-end job all my life and be miserable. i want to do something i love, but i just...cant find out how. :(
