I was in career counseling and paying a crapload of money and it sucked. Basically, here is my career counseling experience:

TEA: Hi! I am trying to find a career that is creative and involves drawing and writing.
COUNSELOR: Hmm, take the MBTI. I don't need to look at your work or anything.
TEA: Here is my MBTI. It says I'm an INTP!
COUNSELOR: Hmm, you should be a statistician.
TEA: And how does that relate to writing and drawing and being creative?
COUNSELOR: Uhh, shut up and give me more money! Statistician!

So now I'm getting counseling for free from my former college and it rocks.
