Sid,
Lots of people find themselves in the same situation you're in at the same age you are now, so don't feel strange about it. Very few people fall into the perfect career for themselves and love it for the rest of their lives. Now days it seems to me like there should be an online website where you can plug in the things you like and get a list of likely careers, so maybe a search would be at least entertaining. Have you paid a visit to the counseling center at school? Also, maybe there are other areas of pharmacy that would meet some of your requirements. I dealt with the public about all of my working life and was good at it. Some of it I enjoyed, some of it I didn't. I figured it's like anything else, there are parts that are better and some that are worse. I tend to agree with Heel n Toe (John R.) about the engineering field as a possibility. You still have time to try out some majors to see how they fit. Lots of people do that. Also, lots of people go through life wondering what they'd like to do when they grow up (Hell, I'm in my late 60's and retired and I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up). For some a good strategy is to get into a field that generally fits and look around for related jobs that lead you in a direction more to your interests. Good luck - you seem like a pretty on the ball young guy.
