"Quotes" that were said during build season

[216Robochick288]

As our wonderful team traveled from Michigan to Waterloo, Canada, we were unsure what we would face. Well we found a few differences...

Mentor driving- "Guys! What does a flashing green arrow mean?!?!?"
Student complaining while wearing shorts- "Dear Canada, Why do you insist upon being so cold? Michigan was at 50 degrees [F] before we left! With love, the States."

"I'm in a car that's not my own, with kids that aren't my own, in a country that's not my own... In the middle of a blizzard.... What am I doing?" - Mentor driving

A game of I-spy gone wrong
"I spy something.... Red!"
"Its the Canadian flag..."
"YEAH! I spy something.... Red!"
"Its the leaf!"
"Yeah! I spy...."
-grumbling, not looking up- "Its the leaf!"
"Wow! Youre good at this!"

[9 hours straight in a car will do this to you]


-On the way over the border, we were playing bomberman on our DS's-
"Do you think the guards will mind us talking about blowing stuff up...? because we are in the middle of a game..."


-at the mid competition party-
"...and to think, all of these Canadians are now my friends because of a game of ninja!"

Me, Right after the end of the awards - "So we are coming back next year, right Mr. Hepfer?"

"I wanna grow up to be a Canadian. Canadians are amazing. Forget engineering!"
