What should I do...?

Hey everyone, I’m 17 and trying to plan out my next 4-5 years, but I’m feeling a bit confused and overwhelmed by my options. I come from a traditional background as an only child, and I really want to make my parents proud while building a career that is long-lasting and high-earning. The plan I have made is to major in Software Engineering (ideally targeting the aviation sector), and I want to minor in Religious Studies to honor my mom’s wishes. On top of that, I have a deep interest in law and politics, which I feel could really strengthen my long-term stability and career leverage. However, I also have a massive love for creative fields like fashion design (which is a great practical backup skill to sew for a living if needed) and filmmaking. I’m naturally great at multitasking, so my idea is to focus heavily on my main degree during the semesters, and then use my summer and winter breaks to take short courses or self-study law, politics, fashion, and filmmaking rather than trying to get full degrees in them.Does this sound realistic, or am I trying to take on too much? I'd love to hear from anyone who has successfully balanced multiple heavy academic interests and creative passions during university! Options and opinions all are welcomed I really want to hear your thoughts and changes that could be made to save my future
