What careers should I look into?

Okay, so I like: oil painting drawing/ sketching photography water color painting working with little kids making things (sewing w/ a sewing machine, somewhat) recycling reading nature photography history (to a degree) designing things (not so much fashion, or architecture) computers (but im not a comp. geek) graphic designing interior design flowers animals origami (somewhat) being social (but im kinda shy sometimes) NOT: acting professional babysitter/ nanny fashion designing chef Professor (like at a school, aka teacher of older students) hospital nurse doctor surgeon anything blood and guts wrting math (I HATE math, even if it is an important skill to learn!!) training animals I know its a little long, but I was just curious. Please, no stupid/ rude comments, or swearing. I just hate that (oh, there's another thing I can add to my list! lol). Thanks!

1. Elementary art teacher
2. If I could do it all again I would train to be an actor, it seems like great fun and pays well. Problem is you need to be REALLY good to get anywhere.
3. Photographer / working on layouts in magazines.
4. photography/ magazine editing
5. Teacher, those hobbies aren't likely to develop into a career. Like it or not, no matter what you do, you'll probably dislike it.
6. Wow, you do have alot of interests. Well I can see from the list that you area a creative type. If you like art I would say maybe a job at an art museum (Art Director, or Director of School Programs since you like working with kids), since you like graphic design, maybe a career in advertising since graphic design skills are very coveted in this career and it is a creative one; what about a florist ( you like flowers and designing). You have alot of the same interests as I do and these are some of the things I have considered. Hope it helps!
7. you are totally an art-oriented person (sorry to be so obvious, but i will get to my point). I think you should learn to write very very well first and foremost, but keep up your drawing and painting whenever you have time. Writing well is almost like art and it's certainly creative and uses the same part of the brain as art. The reason i think learning to write well is important is because no matter what your job is , if you can write well, you will do better than the next person. The reason is that it trains your thought process better than any other activity, so you will be able to communicate well in all forms - written, spoken, or artistically. I would go to college to study art and liberal arts for your bachelor and keep going into further studies once you get a couple years of college, you'll have a better idea where you should go. It could be a grade school art teacher, or journalism, or a graphic artist, or an author. Maybe you will even own your own business in advertising or consulting.
8. You could would any one of those interests into Exotic Dancing. Plus you would get to meet and greet a lot of different people.
