MickeyCheeky, do you need career counseling or personal counseling? Are you a college graduate now, or are you still in college? The more clear you are with your situation, the more feedback people can give you. I am confused as to what it is you need since you haven't been very clear.

After college, many students take a year off to just relax and have fun. Doesn't matter what it looks like. You don't need to buy an expensive vacation package. You can get a part-time job, do an internship, or just hang out at home. If you don't know what you want to do for a career, then you can use resources at your university and your city in the form of career counseling centers, workforce centers, and employment agencies. You can set up informational interviews with people in the work profession you want to investigate, or you can get a paid or non-paid internship, or what have you.

After college, I accepted a teaching gig in China for nearly 2 years at a university. I paid for my own airfare but the experience opened many doors for me personally speaking, to help me learn more about myself. Teaching English as a Second Language is a great adventure. Teaching any language after college, at a language camp, in a language school, through a program that pays you, or through a referral, is a fun way to spend a year after college. That's what I did. It was such a great year. So, if you already finished college and are feeling lost, then you should take some time to figure out what you need to help you decide what to do for a career. Whether its an activity, an internship, graduate school, living at home, the career counseling office. Whatever.
