I'm about to start Con-Gen and thus will be at FSI for longer periods of time and more in need of food. I find myself at the vending machines more often than not because I just can't handle paying $7 for a breakfast sandwich and a coffee. Maybe I'll revert to my ramen noodle college days.

I'm at least fortunate that unlike my friend who has spent the last six months learning French to go to Kinshasa, I don't have to worry too much about State not allowing me to go because my post has turned into a war zone. Good luck with your test, Laura. Thanks for all the encouragement.

Rest assured, though, it will pass. It's always hardest to see the light at the end of the tunnel when it's just close enough to make out but still far enough away that it seems like it'll be forever before you actually reach it. Language training can be a real drag toward the end, and the thought of all those colleagues out there "actually doing things" while it seems like you're still at the starting line can be maddening. Trust me, though, you've already gotten through the worst of it. Best of luck to you on your test! I know the feeling all too well. Rest assured, though, it will pass.
