"Camp Half-Blood, Keeping Young Heroes Safe from Harm (Mostly) For Over Three Millennia"
"The landscape was dotted with buildings that looked like ancient Greek architecture--an open-air pavilion, an amphitheater, a circular arena--except they all looked brand new, their white marble columns sparkling in the sun. In a nearby sandpit, a dozen high school-age kids and satyrs plated volleyball. Canoes glided across a small lake. Kids in bright orange T-shirts like Grover's were chasing each other around a cluster of cabins nestled in the woods. Some shot targets at an archery range. Others rode horses down a wooded trail, and, unless I was hallucinating, some of their horses had wings."-An excerpt from Percy Jackson and the Olympians Book One: The Lightning Thief, by Rick Riordan, pages 61-62.

Forever and a Half

A phrase meaning a very long time.
Jay: "Kay, hurry up!!! I have to pee!!!"
Kay: "Okay, okay, okay!!! I'm done!!!"
Jay: "Man, you took, like, forever and a half!!! What were you doing in there???!!!

the ball is in your half court

this expression means

it is now up to you to decide on what you want to do/what decision to take

N.B : this phrase is a direct English translation of the french (specifically of France) expression "la balle est dans ton/votre camp"
mother: Angela, why are you doing drugs? I now give you two choices: either you leave your current boyfriend Brandon and the drugs, or you can move in with him; in which case I will want to have nothing to do with you. The ball is in your half court.

Angela:I would like to commit suicide. Wtf? You want me to choose between the devil and the deep blue sea?

mother: that's not an option. i am taking you right now for a psyche eval.
