Hey, it's good to hear that you like coding. It's better to like coding first before treating it like a something you can make money from (which of course you can).

For the question about is CS really what you want to do, it's really a question you have to answer yourself.

I am really happy that I'm a developer, of course I do have other hobbies but I can't really think of myself in other jobs other than as a developer.

It's also worth nothing that, a degree is not really a requirement as a developer in most progressive companies. If I can get a developer job with decent pay in a third world country without a degree, so can you.
