Lessons Learned in the Morning
I should have posted this a while ago, but this is a list of the things I heard most often while down at YWAM in San Jose. It’s in the style of the S*** People Say videos, but I didn’t have time to shoot a video while I was down there. I bet it’s applicable to a few other YWAM bases as well. (YWAM is short for Youth With a Mission, an international Christian missionary network that both educates youth and gives them the opportunity to work in the service of Christian projects. See my earlier posts for more details.)
What’s for dinner tonight?
Rice and beans, I think. Oh, yep, I’m right.
If you get married I’m totally going to be invited to the wedding for introducing you..
Let’s pray for that.
Where are you from? Where are you from? Where are you from? Where are you from? Where are you from?
Yeah, well, I don’t say the A-word where I’m from.
No problem, I’ll just do my homework while I watch the movie.
So, you like her? How many kids are you going have?
The internet is down? Let me see if I can find Ryan, he knows how to fix it. Karen? Do you know where Ryan is? Joel knows? Where’s Joel? With Anabel? Where’s Anabel? Ask Ruth? Ok, I’ll go find Ruth… Where’s Ruth?
I’m totally going to do laundry today. For real.
I got a sunburn today, but it totally doesn’t hurt. I’m fine.
Is there more peanut butter? No? Drat.
I’ll do it right after I’m done journaling.
Do you want to trade mornings with me? Why not? I’ll totally owe you one.
Olà! ¿Como esta?
How long are you here? What team are you with? Do you know? How was the flight? When do you leave? See you!
Don’t worry, it’ll be back on soon. They’re working on it.
Has the rainy season started? (Sound of rain pouring down like a waterfall) No, not yet, it’ll get a lot worse.
It was a miracle. I can’t think of any other way to describe it.
Could you say that again, God? I wasn’t listening…
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Amen.
