Most counselors tell students not to apply to more than six or seven colleges.

My counselor tells me the same thing- sometimes I don't come to the point.

"I'm not afraid," the counselor told him with a certain pride in her voice.

The counselor told him she needed his Social Security number.

It wasn't hard to figure out what the counselor was really telling him: he would never amount to anything.

"A counselor told us exactly how many sheets of toilet paper we were allowed to use!"

Little more than the counselor has already told you, I'm sure.

"Something my father used to say," the counselor told him.

"The counselors told me that but how can I believe them if it happened?"

"The counselor tells me you've got that thing working again?"
