A week that changed my life------Part 4

In addition to all the great lectures (which I will get to later this week) there were so many funny events that happened during the week!

One of the best things about camp was in between lectures, when the music would blare and everyone would be singing and moving to the music.
The counselors chose mostly well-known, like Switchfoot and Newsboys, but there were some others too----including Relient K.

Before camp, I really only knew 'The Best Thing' by them, but now I'm a total fan! Thanks to Katelyn, who would sing at the top of her lungs and play an air guitar, and the counselors, who played 'Sadie Hawkins Dance' over and over, I'm hooked on Relient K.

In case you haven't heard this fabulous song, here are the lyrics.

All the girls in the bathroom talking

who they gonna take to the Sadie Hawkins

My ears are burning but I kept on walking

smile on my face and an air guitar rocking

The Sadie Hawkins Dance

in my khaki pants

There's nothing better

oh oh oh

The girls ask the guys

it's always a surprise

There's nothing better

baby do you like my sweater?

Sitting in the back of my next class napping

Got up, gave a speech, then bowed to the clapping

Told a funny joke got the whole class laughing

think I got a tan from the light which I was basking

The Sadie Hawkins Dance

in my khaki pants

There's nothing better

oh oh oh

The girls ask the guys

it's always a surprise

There's nothing better

baby do you like my sweater?

Scan the cafeteria for some good seating

I found a good spot by the cheerleaders eating

The quarterback asked me if I'd like a beating

I said that's one thing I won't be needing

And since I'm rather smart and cunning

I took off down the next hall running

Only to get stopped by a girl so stunning

only to get stopped by a girl so stunning

She said, "You're smooth, and good with talking.You're going with me to the Sadie Hawkins

The Sadie Hawkins Dance

in my khaki pants

There's nothing better

oh oh oh

The girls ask the guys

it's always a surprise

There's nothing better

baby do you like my sweater?

Don't ya just love it??? I only heard it one time before I was jamming along with the other Relient K fans.

The awesome thing was that since everyone knew all the songs that were being played, you could dance or sing along and not feel silly! I don't exactly have the best singing voice, but it didn't matter: we were all singing together to glorify God.

Another super fun thing was the Ultimate Frisbee game between the counselors and campers. I didn't play (not so good with the hand-eye coordination thing) but I cheered and took pictures of Katelyn. Even though we got beat (11-6) everyone played great! I honestly had no idea Frisbee could be so much fun! Next year I will definitely be playing. :)

Also, the presentation of the Spamley Cup. I can't exactly describe it, other than it was hilarious, crazy, and downright original. Our small group laughed so hard when Emily Rae came out!!!! Her hair as a beard.........NEVER WILL I FORGET THAT!!!!

And then there were our t-times! All the girls in my group were fantastic, and we all agreed that Emily Rae was the best small-group-leader ever! She kept things funny and interesting. I think by the end of the week we were pretty sick of Starbursts, but they were yummy! And our stargazing-turned-to-talking-time was a memory I won't forget. I felt so close to everyone that night......amazing.

I'm glad I have pictures to remember that awesome week----along with songs!

Ciao,
