Piano Professor + Opera Singer?
Is it possible for me to be a piano professor with all the duties that come with that career (teaching, planning, office hours, performing, doing other side-gig type things, etc.) and also have a serious, yet part-time opera career?

Opera Singer?
How exactly does being a freelance opera singer work? How do you get jobs? How many hours a day does an opera singer work during a performance season? Is being an opera singer possible as somewhat of a part-time or a "every once in a while" kind of job? I am also thinking about repetiteur work, private teaching, and solo performing, etc. if that helps answer how well these could work together...
Should I consider a career as a college/university/conservatory professor?
After some consideration, I have wondered if perhaps a music professor would suit me? What does being a music professor include (lifestyle, work-life). Could I teach multiple instruments (specifically piano and voice)? What degree requirements would I need to have? How does one become a professor, and specifically how do I become a professor of multiple instruments? Is performance a part of the job? How often would I perform each instrument (voice and piano)? Thank you!
Help! I have too many (performing arts) career interests!!?
I am a very ambitious person when it comes to what I want to do as far as my career goals. But, I have so many interests and things I want to do, that I just don't know how to either pick one (or a few), or just somehow try a bit of everything or something. Currently, I am interested in singing, acting, playing piano (solo, orchestral, accompaniment), and teaching piano/voice. I know opera combines singing and acting, so that might be an option, although I don't know how that would look with piano/piano teaching. I also think it would be really cool to be on Broadway! I could also go down the path of just focusing on teaching, and I think being a piano professor eventually would also be very interesting to me. I also could just choose between singing/acting, or piano, but that seems IMPOSSIBLE. I could never choose and abandon one of them, but I just don't know how I can make them work together. I think my main problem is that I don't know how I want my life to look like, so that's why I find it so hard to choose. If I don't do all of them, I feel like I'm abandoning opportunity in that field. Honestly, I just want to know how I could do it all if that's even possible.

My name is Kylie. I am sixteen and currently a Junior. Do you have any recommendations on college for a student with an average GPA and a want to be a musical theatre major? I really need some advice on how to get into a certain college and which one to pick.
I have musical theatre experience. I have been in my high school drama club for over 6 years now. Some standout roles are: Carlotta (Phantom of the Opera), Mr.s Teavee (Charlie and the Chocloate Factory), Jan (Grease) along with many others. I have had voice lessons training for opera singing for almost 7 years now. I also perform at my community theatre. I also do color guard and am the captain this year. I also plan for trying out for all Ohio ( a show that has student actors from all across the state.) I have also done solo and ensemble for 2 years now. Freshman year: I did Kind Fortune smiles, class B, and got a 1. Sophomore year: I did Sebben crudele, class B Italian, and got a 1. I am doing a class A this year

Stuck Between 2 Paths and graduating soon what should I do?
I am 21 and completing my final year in university as a psychology, forensic specialization and criminology dual major with a minor in youth and children studies. I have been struggling with deciding 'what to do with my life' for a long time but it has become serious as I need to start applying to graduate schools. My first path/interest has to do with my majors. I am extremely interested in young offenders, at risk youth, mental health and criminality and general, and other forensic psychology related topics. I do not know what exact career I would want but I do have some ideas. I am looking to pursue a masters degree in forensic psychology, I am not completely sure I like doing research which is what most if not all master/graduate programs consist of though. Fortunately I am doing a Honours thesis this year which may help but I'm still nervous about not being good enough to do these programs. My other dilemma is that I have strong passions in another field. For the longest time I have wanted to be a singer it is my biggest passion, and I am honestly happiest singing. More recently I have developed a passion for musical theatre as it incorporates other things I like such as acting. However I have no experience or training in singing or theatre which makes it difficult to pursue. For my entire life practically I've been interested in the arts: music, singing, writing, acting and so on but I feel like for one it is too late for me to pursue it. I also really love my major(s) and feel passionate about doing things in that field but I also want to do theatre/the arts. I feel so stuck and I worry I will have issues pursuing a career in forensic psychology - I have mental health issues and this past year has been extremely difficult making my school work suffer so I worry I will get burnout and have another bad episode. I wish there was a way to do both somehow because that would make me feel very complete but it seems impossible especially considering how much time both careers need and the importance of work life balance. I am hoping someone has some insight. I apologize if this doesn't make sense
