"Ugh; damn, but this sucks."

"Here. Have some ice cream. You look like you could use a break."

"Thanks; I sure do need it--I mean both."

"You've been working at this for most of the day. What're you studying so hard, anyway?"

"Bleghgh. I have to memorize all this crap about duty-free stores, and taxes on goods, and I don't even know what, just now. It's all so much gibberish."

"Don't force yourself. Think too hard about it, and you'll give yourself a headache."

"I'd resent that, if it weren't for all this heat. It's difficult to concentrate."
