I know it's been mentioned, but what was it about college that you hated? Because I know when I first started school, I don't think I was REALLY ready to be there, I had a lot of issues with my ex, I couldn't find roommates and I was barely passing my classes. I wasn't thriving, and that made me hate being in school. Some how I managed go make myself go back for my second year but I had an honest to god concrete plan to drop out, work from January to September and then go to college for a 2 year hands-on diploma. I fucking HATED university. But.... At some point it just turned around for me, I guess thing's started going right, I started to thrive a bit better, and things started improving for me, so now I am almost done my honours BA.... So for me, based on my personal experience, I think it WAS worth being in university.
I can definitely relate to just not wanting to be there, especially if you aren't succeeding or enjoying it. But to me, it doesn't sound as if you are enjoying NOT being in school much either. And honestly there is so little you can do without a diploma or degree, even if you end up doing something totally unrelated to what you went to school for it helps you in the "real world". So, in my opinion I think it would be worth your time to consider why it is that you quit school. And then work through that to find a program and a school that will be less likely to present those issues to you.
So... yeah, in my opinion it's your time to go back.
