I am currently a senior in high school and I’ve been in music for as long as I can remember. I play the flute, piano, and just recently picked up guitar. I also sing in the choir at my school. While music has always been a wonderful part of my life, I know that I don’t have the skill to pursue it professionally and I would like a career with more stability. Recently when I applied to college I settled on becoming a computer science major. Now my parents feel like I’m wasting time making music because it’s not something that I am going to be mainly relying on for income. While I see their point, this is not something I’m willing to just completely drop. When I go off to college I know I won’t have the same time to dedicate to it as I do know, especially if I am focused on a career and a future. But I don’t want to let go completely, it’s always been a love of mine and I can’t imagine myself without it. Any advice on how to keep making music? Is it really that much of a waste? Any other opinions? Thanks guys
