At work the other day, as I was munching on my home packed lunch, my mind wandered back to my schooldays when lunch break used to be so much fun. In fact lunch break used to be the highlight of the entire day at school. If I remember right, we had a 45 minute lunch break and boy, we packed in so much in those 45 minutes. Those 45 minutes where when reputations were built and destroyed on the football field, adventures where had while sneaking out of the school premises, friendships and rivalries were cemented through fist fights and brawls, petty monetary exchanges of all sorts were transacted - man, those were heady times!
In comparison, my lunch breaks today are so boring. I either quickly wolf down my lunch and rush back to work, or lounge around with colleagues and wallow in the latest office politics. Being in school was fun...sigh...
