I can relate on several levels. First getting my bachelor's took longer than it should have, because I changed majors a couple times largely due to following some bad advice to start with. Then after having some difficulties in the job market, I went back to school to start to work on an MA in education, but I decided to leave that. I got a job offer, and I was feeling like, college was, in my case, more of a safety net rather than it being that I really wanted to teach. (I'm just saying in my case, though; I'm not trying to imply it's that way with you. 
)
One thing positive I will say, though, that will hopefully be of encouragement... I think it was good for me to take some time off from school before doing the grad work. I think I'd gotten somewhat burned out on school before, but when I came back I felt somewhat refreshed mentally. And especially in your situation, since it sounds like you only have to be in school a short time to finish up, it shouldn't seem too bad.
Lifting you up, and I hope it goes well for you. And if you need to talk to someone who's been in a somewhat similar position, feel free to PM or IM me.

Theme Scripture: Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1)
And a verse for all us single folks: Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? (1 Corinthians 9:5)

I can understand about bad things happening and having to stop going to school. I've had to stop going three times because of financial problems. This time I'm out for a year.
:/ I could graduate with only one summer term and a fall term. That's all I have left.
At any rate, I think there's a reason for time out in things like this.
God probably has a plan and knows what he's doing.
You'll get back into the swing of things really quickly n_n I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers, and keep us posted!
