Yes, it's very widely spoken by elephants apparently. Should I be offended? :P

I don't even think it was purposely Eurocentric. The way Simba delivered the line it literally sounded like they'd put the English phrase on Google Translate to get the Greek translation and just delivered the line in the robotic manner Google Translate does in an American accent. I guess it sounded exotic enough to work for them...? :?

That probably was their thought process. "Um... guys, quick! We need an exotic sounding language the kiddies won't understand! Oh, Greek? Sure, that'll work! To Google Translate!"

A second interview this week, with a chance to interact with the kids? Count me in! :D I just have to double-check the date, because she said Wednesday, but then she said the 17th, which is tomorrow. :P

It appears so, which doesn't give me much hope for the amount of thought they put into these things. :P

Well, they're presumably the same people who thought it would be a good idea to have Simba put his very young daughter in charge of a whole kingdom temporarily. Clearly these people know what they're doing. :P

Aw. She won't be there? That's kind of sad. At least I know the other two, although one of them makes me feel a little intimidated because she was the one to ask the harder questions. Oh well. Hopefully I do well this Wednesday. :D Although I don't know if I should wear nice casual or just casual.

Re-watched Lilo and Stitch. Suppose it's time to get some cleaning done.

Okay. I'll watch some tips for it while making/eating lunch, and then I guess I'll continue working on the study guide for Wednesday's Government final, since that's the only "homework" I have.
