Ask HN: Does anyone have some good Career/Life Advice for an 18 year old

I'm still in High School with about 1 semester left. Once I finish up High School I will be going to a Community College for 2 years then transferring to a University. (Just trying to stay out of debt and save money) I already have about 15 credit hours from doing dual credit English/US Hist/Govt during school and the summer. I plan on majoring in CS. I've been dabbling in programming for I don't know how many years and in High School I've taken a Visual Basic .NET class and AP Computer Science (Java), both of which have come very easy to me. I have a part time job as VB Developer doing reports/SQL Queries mostly. I don't mind it but it's not the most enjoyable thing.

So does anyone have advice on what I could do to improve myself for future jobs and life in general? Am I on the right path?
