what option do you think is best?

Question

im 25, unemployed, want a career in electrical engineering, need 4 years of college for the degree.

have the option of starting a career in Information Technology (IT) by doing a 1 year diploma which could help me with employment.

however, it's not something i am geared towards careerwise.

what would you do if you were in my situaton?

would you go to college by asking parents or loaning the money and get the 4 year degree for engineering, expecting to graduate around 29/30 years of age and then look for a job?

or...

would you do the IT diploma for one year look for a job in that career path and leave engineering for another day

Get the IT diploma, then go to school nights toward your Electrical Engineering degree, even if it takes 10 years.  You will enjoy the company of other students, have your day job to support yourself, and have hope for the future.
