Are you allowed to have more than one career?

I'd like to have a lot of jobs when I'm older. I'd like to be an environmental activist, a teacher, an archaeologist, an author, and many more! How can I do all these if I can only go to college to prepare for getting one job?

How do you find scholarships?

Some websites do offer "scholarship matches," but they skip some that you do qualify for, and it's difficult to sort through hundreds just to find one or two you qualify for.
