On His Way

Everyone remembers our friend Doug, right?

Doug has been trying to enter the U.S. Foreign Service for quite some time now.

He first submitted his application in about December.

With an accepted application, he stood for his Written Examination in February.

He passed the test.

He submitted essays and various paperwork over the next few months.

He stands for his Oral Examination on Wednesday - this Wednesday.

He is stepping onto a plane in a few minutes, having already left home.

Although he is loath to admit it, he is nervous. He has invested a lot of himself into this process, and has placed his hopes and expectations into getting accepted.

He will find out at the end of his interview on Wednesday.

We will keep you posted.
