Thanks for your advice! Its been quite helpful, and I've been thinking over things a bit.
I've decided to stay at uni to finish off a commerce degree, leaving the path open (still a year before I choose major).
Uni, I've found, it a good place to meet people. It seems odd, that I'm likely to benefit more from my friends and other uni students than from the teachers.
Probably the worst aspect is the way everything is so "academic". Even though I can see that a lot of the academic stuff is a foundation for the future, too much of it is unnecessary. Not to mention the horrible "referencing rules" they put on us.
There's some form of creativity in the Arts departments (and even then, it is regulated), but in Commerce, the word "creative" shares the same shelf with "Hitler" or "Satan".
All in all, it isn't a total waste. Obviously, I do have a solid beginning (although with the state of the economy, "solid" might be the wrong word for it), and it will at least earn me enough money to get started.
