Going from trumpet to oboe?

Hello everyone, I'm starting 12th grade this year and I have been in takeing music lessons since 4th garde. Like I said I play the trumpet...but I absolutly hate the trumpet! My mom MADE me play it and I didn't get to pick my instrument! Even though I'm pretty good at it now, I would like a fresh new start for college and I'd like to switch to oboe. Do you think this would be a good idea? And since I'm going to have to buy my own oboe I was looking at the Barrington since that's pretty much all I can afford (If I ever get a job...) Would this be a wise discision?
I don't even play trumpet in marching band, I'm section leader of the mellophones and my two close friends both play oboe/mellophone. Even my friends bought me a flute for my birthday! Which I've become pretty good at!
Any advice or information would be great!
