Then they call your parents instead of really helping you. -- Posted by stl man at 4:39 pm on Oct. 2, 2008 yeah why would u be scared? -- Posted by igotaquestion at 4:39 pm on Oct. 2, 2008 Why are you going? and they are pretty much useless except for when i want to switch clases -- Posted by concon at 4:39 pm on Oct. 2, 2008 THEY ARE FAILED COUNCILORS, DONT -- Posted by uwastedmyheart at 4:39 pm on Oct. 2, 2008 They suck, well mine does.
