Katelyn emailed these to me yesterday. She was our official quote taker, in her little notebook. Those of you who did not attend camp might not understand, but please try and see it from our point of view!!!!!
Now, without further ado:
World Views Academy Quotes 2010
"Nothing good has ever happened in a forest."
Camp Director Mike, during our orientation. He was explaining the rules of the camp, and one of them was our boundaries. We were not allowed to go in the forest behind the dorms, a la this quote.
"What is truth without love?"
"You are ugly."
This was Mike Schutt and one of the campers. Mike was asking the question, and the guy was very blunt in his answer. Everyone laughed, and so did Mike (after he realized the guy was joking).
"JESUS!"
The sterotype answer to every Sunday School question. If the campers didn't know the answer to a question, we answered either this or 'THE BIBLE!' Both probably would have worked in any situation. =D
"I was juggling chainsaws-not very well........."
Mike Schutt again----I don't remember much about this one, except it had something to do with juggling cats and chainsaws at the same time. Mike doesn't like cats.
"Yet another reason I'm glad I'm not male"
LOL!!! Katelyn used this all the time, when the guys at camp would do or say something completly ridiculous. I think it's her trademark catchphrase. :)
"NIV- Nearly Inspired Version?"
I think it was Paul Jordan who was talking about different versions of the Bible, and he asked a girl what NIV stood for. I'm pretty sure this was her actual answer.
"Because I'm intelligent"
At the time, this was hilarious. It was the response to Bill Jack asking an athiest how he knew there was no Heaven. He just kept saying this, and we campers were laughing our heads off. Then Bill stopped the tape and said, "I can't laugh at this anymore, because this man is now a very good friend." There was a rather stunned silence after that----so it's not as funny when I think about it.
"Your name fell off"
This was all Brittany, all the way! We had little cards taped to our dorm door with our names on them. I had taken mine off to keep, but Brittany didn't know that. A few hours later, she was looking at the door and said this amazing statment. Katelyn and I laughed rather hard.
"I have news for you- I can't have a baby."
During one of the lectures, something about men and women being different came up. Paul Jordan practically shouted this around the whole room. I seriously could not believe he had said that! It was, well, awkward!
"take your stand from where you sit"
I honestly can't remember who said this one, or why it was said. Still, it's kind of funny!
"DIE, SUCKER!!"
In our evangelizing-lecture, we learned that in order to share the Gospel with people, we couldn't be afraid of what they thought of us, meaning we had to die to ourselves. Therefore, one of the leaders had us all write this down in big captions.
"What is an encyclopedia? a dictionary on steroids"
I believe it was one of the speakers during a lecture---not much else comes to mind.
"Whenever you're done braiding her head"
Emily Rae said this one as we were getting ready to leave our room. Brittany was French-braiding my hair, and it was taking a little longer than we had time. After Emily said this, Katelyn instantly wrote it down.
"Don't eat the cabin boy"
This came about because one of the lectures was about the Regina vs. Dudley and Stevens case (if you don't know about this---you're lucky). I can't remember why it was said, but it makes me giggle and squirm at the same time.
"sandwich artist"
I believe it was Mike Schutt who used this to describe a Subway employee.
"When the Canadians invade.......or the Mexicans.......or the French"
Something rather interesting----I just can't remember why!!! Still, it is lol just because everyone laughed at the thought of the French invading us.
"Because it makes my feet tingle"
I think Director Mike said this, but I do not remember why. Sorry!
"eat tree bark- do something!"
During the lecture on leisure, the lecturer (can't remember who) was talking about alternatives to just sitting around idly. He said this, and I couldn't stop laughing.
"Thank you for having your constitution easily accessible in your wallet."
This was during the judgment lecture, when Mike Schutt asked if anyone knew a certain amendment. We all looked around sheepishly, until one boy actually pulled the Constitution out of his wallet! We were all very surprised and impressed.
"Bummer dude"
This was the counselor's favorite phrase. It's just a silly thing to say when something bummerish happens.
"Babies could grow on trees!"
Don't remember the circumstances---but I believe a camper said this.
"can YOU paint with all the colors of the wind?"
I think it was Katelyn who said this. We had all been singing it, and then she pointed at me and said this.
"wield!"
I think it was when Katelyn and I would stage-punch or pinch or stab each other. Rather funny, I must say.
"AWKWARD!"
To me at least, this sums up the whole week. Anytime anything awkward would come up (aka, I CAN'T HAVE A BABY) Katelyn and I would look at each other and mouth, 'Awkward!' It was really funny, and we had so many awkward moments!
And there are the quotes from our week. There were many, many more I'm sure, but Katelyn couldn't write them all down! And some are better kept a secret between Katelyn, Brittany and I. Right, girls?
Again, my camper friends, if I got any quotes wrong, feel free to email me and I will try to fix them.
Talk to you all next week!
Adieu,
