[edit] LunchLunch. At MSH, students had a full hour to eat, which is more than enough time. While most students used this time to talk, other students used this time to play ping-pong, video games (Super Smash Bros. Melee and Halo), PC games, watch movies, or play on the baby grand piano donated to the school that sat just off of the cafeteria. The food from the cafeteria was catered by a local pizzaria* and ranged from sandwiches to candy to soda to pizza to spaghetti. In addition to the catered food the school had three microwaves for students to use.
At one point, the lunch services was taken over by what could only be described as a "Russian Nazi" The man was so tyrannical, he would pick food off the floor, lick it, and then put it back out for general consumption... [edit] References[edit] External links |
