Maybe a conventional college isn't for you, It is not for everyone ya know!
Maybe you could transfer to a vocational or tech school. Try to find out what you are good at doing, and see if there is classes in that field.
Like Massage Therapy, or web design, or I don't know maybe Medical Assistance, or painting,
All I know is that if you are not happy with the school you have chosen you will get bored of the classes and eventually you will wanna quit. and that won't be good either as you will have Student and parent loans hanging over your head till they are all completely paid off.
Good Luck to you

Your school should have some kind of guidance office. Go there and ask to speak to a cousellor. Tell them you want to to take an interest inventory and an aptitude test. These are written tests that help you map out where your interest really lie and what your personality type is. Briggs-Meyers is a common one developed during World War II and still in use.
After you've gotten your results back, discuss them with the councellor. They can provide helpful feedback to help you in your decision making process. They also probably have access to studies showing the trends of what kind of careers will be in demand in the next 10-20 years.
You may have a real interest in mathematics and an introverted personality that would make a career in math, science or computer research fun for you. Or you may have an interest in people and an outgoing personality that may make a career in politics, teaching, or social services fun for you.
Every person is different and sometimes we need help "uncovering" our personality type because we have spent years doing what our friends wanted instead of what we really wanted. This often leads to the "I don't know what I want to do" syndrome.
Good luck! I hope you find your calling in life.

Computing or Engineering, while the jobs out there are not as exciting as the brochures say (the jobs are 99% of the time as dull as 'dishwater'), either Computing or Engineering will give you the chance for developing something that is fun & of value....
Do find all the courses on Physics* that are 'good', i.e: the ones given by good lecturers/professors... do those... hard work, but worth it...
*especially 'Engineering Physics'...

Fun, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Some people might think it FUN to be a stock broker on Wall Street, or a top surgeon, a crack CPA at a top accounting firm, or a famous celebrity lawyer. None of those would appeal to me but they all earn good salaries. Maybe they would appeal to you.

Go for brain surgery. Or train to be an austronaut. Would you mind to say first something about yourself, as on what do you like to do?
