Looking for some insight..?

I'm currently in my freshman year at a community college with plans on transferring to a university. I initially declared CIS (computer information systems) as my major, but I don't know if it's the way I want to go after the first cles I took. I liked my intro to programming cl (using visual basic). I got a 96 in the cl. But I just don't know if it's the way I want to go. I've always had a high interest in computers and think that I would really like the networking cles and advanced programming cles, but I just don't know if my heart is truly in it for CIS. I had to take an accounting cl (practical accounting) and I also got a high A in that class, and really enjoyed it too. It had to do with accounts payable, ledger accounts, general journals, financial statements...everyday accounting stuff. I think I may want to venture the accounting way. It seems exciting. CIS major would seem like you would be at the desk all the time? What are your thoughts on the two majors? It's difficult to find a job after getting your degree in CIS is it not? I hear some people don't get a job pertaining their major for years since experience is as important as your degree? How difficult is it to find a job (good?) for an accounting major? What are the ups and downs of each? Which ultimately will do me financially better? Technology field always seems to be in demand, is it the same for accounting majors? Is there a lot of jobs available? Both provide good opportunities as far as I know. I know it's quite a bit of questions, but I am just looking for some more information since I know no one in the fields. Any information to my questions and any personal experience that you would like to share would be very appreciated.
