    Hi I have recently decided to drop out of college, due to lack of motivation to complete my ARTS course. I regretted choosing Arts and after struggling through two years I am packing it in because I just can't see it going anywhere. I am thinking about applying to get a work visa for Canada now but I am not really sure what my next move is. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    I've had a few experiences where I wanted to change direction, and staying employed/ busy/ in touch while looking into new areas led me to the next thing I did each time.

    Fair play for giving your course two years, can't say you didn't try. Now you know an Arts degree isn't for you :-)

    I think it can take some time to hit on what you enjoy doing.
    Working abroad is a great idea IMHO, a great way to get perspective and be exposed to new ideas and directions.
    Can't say I know a whole lot about Canada though.
