i was exactly the same as you. in 10th grade i decided i wanted to go into music education, and at the time my primary instrument was flute. that year, we had no oboes in our wind ensemble and i learned to play it for the group. i only really seriously started playing oboe in 11th grade, and by 12th grade trying to pick between saxophone and oboe. i chose oboe (hey, it's paying me money!) and now am an oboe major at the crane school of music. it is something that is doable i feel. and even though i love my other instruments too, im still able to play them as well...i play in the flute choir, clarinet choir, sax quartet, and possibly sax ensemble this coming semester as well. if you want to persue oboe, go for it, and while your at it...dont give up with clarinet either.
