@yesno1: Thanks a lot ;D i'll keep looking into it then

good for you!. Another advice is gather the features you like of different jobs and then look for the job that fit everything or almost everything.
For ex: you might like the ability of interacting with people like doctors. You might like crafting things like a dentists. You might like desgin things like an Arch-something (forgot the spelling of that thing but I guess you got it).
Looking for major/profession is pain in the ass, but once you find what you like, you will feel strong and excited about life. It took me 6 months of heavy thinking to realize who I was and what I wanted to do.

Either go undecided, or take a year off and think about it.
I'm going to advice you to not major in something stupid such as Music, dance, photography .. etc. Do not get me wrong. I respect those fileds, but the real world have no place for those things. If you love to sing, make it a hobby and try to spread your music through iTunes, youtube and other stuff, but do not major in Music. Major in something that you [i]like to do[/i] and makes good $$.
History is a good start since it is a multi-disciplinary liberal art, however DON'T blindly go into school. Get a job and scout around, read books and then once you are sure of yourself go hardcore into school. Honestly there is a lot one can do with a History Major (in terms of transferring into Master programs) but it is better to double major these days.
@dryrain: Considered that, but never though too much about it. I'll look into it now.
@fun2killu: Honestly, I sorta like business/law (wouldn't like being a lawyer though), did psychology a few years ago, that was quite interesting. I don't know if there are different career choices when doing it though. tbh, a high earning job with a few job opportunities.
Engineering is death at university, but it's worth it since you can get paid 6 digit per year if you land a good job.

I personally think real estate is a great career choice if you're well spoken and confident.[/quote]

I want to be a phone sex operator
philosophy, _____ studies, communication, etc
well what do you like?
you can go undecided in college and take a few classes which you find interesting. Then decide from there.
