I don't know what I want to do in life

The worst thing you could do is decide what you're going to do for the rest of your life while you're still a teenager. I'd say if you're able to admit that you have no idea then you're way ahead of all the other kids who have a "plan". I'd recommend applying to college to get your foot in the door and trying out any courses you think sound interesting. Go to career fairs. Talk to people you meet who have interesting jobs. Talk to a counsellor at college about professional programs that prepare you for a job. You'll find that there are a lot of great options once you get out there and start exploring!

Please don't waste your time and resources in the cesspool that is college education. Do what ignites the spark of life within and become well versed at it. Nothing is more sinister than these colleges, supposed places of higher learning, that exploit the na?vet? of young people lacking direction. Be sure to get student loans so you'll be thousands $$$ in debt for years to come and even better if you can study a completely worthless wipe-your-ass with degree like [any liberal arts degree]. Imagine the psychological burden of being essentially enslaved while you still have no real direction. Don't play the game of going ahead with college when you're uncertain.

Life teaches.. high school teaches you how to be a an obedient "citizen" that eliminates any room for independent thinking with the "curriculum". It's all a trap. You're doing well so far by asking yourself these important questions. I was in the same position as you actually (I can disclose more info via pm is you wish). What happens now is up to you. Reject the entire idea of college unless you absolutely know what you're getting yourself into and are exceptional at making connections. I assume you're in the US.

Basically, if you're brain dead and love being programmed like a robot go to college. That's all you'll ever need to operate there.

Can I ask what you do for a living? These days no matter what you do from being a scientist to a mechanic or a hairdresser requires a college program.

just go with the flow and figure out as you live each day. its quite common for students and young adults to think like this but it'll be fine. im different though, i've already figured out what i wanna do as soon as i graduate.
