THE JOY OF LUNCH
Students become slightly edgy as they see the clock's little hand resting on the eleven, and the big hand approaching the seven. This is not simply twenty-five to twelve- this mo- ment signifies one hour of sheer freedom; free- dom to "pick up guys" (Amanda Morrish), to "hang out at the pool hall" (Darren Johnson), or to "go home and watch The Flintstones" (Jodi Lougheed).
More importantly, 11:35 signifies relief for growling stomachs. The cafeteria soon hosts a feeding frenzy that displays fairly animalis- tic eating habits. Mike Dunning equates his best friend's eating habits with those of a shark: "savagely efficient". Robert Reid claims that his friends' habits are squirrel- like. "They put all the food they can in their mouths and run". Tina Ellis's best friend eats "like a hedgehog - totally disgusting!" If you can see beyond the more savage cafeteria an- tics, you may spy the more "dainty", "doe- like" eating habits of the likes of Jen Redding's best friend.
Whatever your habits and preferences are for lunch time, it remains one hour of people (or animal) watching, freedom and relaxation that helps us all make it through the rest of the day.
