If you like management and like creativity - management and marketing might be for you.

Believe it or not, accounting might suits you well. Management accounting will challenge you to come up with ideas to manage of sorts of things (budget, costs, risks...etc) Creative accounting is always an area in demand :p.

I had a tutor for accounting who asked the tutorial on the last tute whether accounting was a science or an art. Yes, due to those 'creative' measures - it seems it is more an artform instead of an absolute science.

Definitely not a science. Also not an art. It's kindof like law- it requires you to interpret standards and apply them, but then on the other hand it requires you to use the conceptual framework and basic principles to determine the 'correct' accounting treatment for something which isn't clearly defined, and to apply the standards/framework in a logical and consistent manner.
