<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

I'm a senior in high school and I have absolutely no idea what I want to do with my life. I know that's a common complaint among seniors but I'm terrified of ending up like my sister, who went to college for an english degree and isn't doing anything with it now. I don't want to get some general computer science degree like my mother is pushing and end up in a cubicle fixing computers every day. I'd like to be well-off but I don't want to be unhappy doing it. I'd rather be poor, but happy with what I'm doing than dread waking up every morning. Blah blah blah

I know that I want to always keep theatre in my life in some way, whether it's a hobby or part of my job, but I'm not trying to be an actor or anything. It'd be cool to open a theatre or an arts center or something. I'm rambling now.

My question is: how do I go about finding out what I want to do? Should I take a year off from school and work for a while/"find myself?"  How much of a chance is there that I'll encounter something during that off year that would let me skip college altogether? How would a year off affect scholarships or chances of being accepted?
