At the cafeteria of our company, there is a bowl of Lego bricks on top of
each tables. Nothing fancy, just bricks. (Looks like they just bought a
couple of the brick tubs.) At the beginning it was quite frustrating for me
sometimes. I almost wanted to smuggle in some plates and slopes
from home. But gradually I got the hang on building only with bricks.
In the past month, I was in my "fowl period". All my lunchtime creations
turned out to be nothing but birds, ducks, and chicken, etc. But today, I
just had a breakthrough -- I produced a handsome 6-stud-wide cow. Too
bad I did not have a camera at hand, and by tomorrow I guess the cow
would have been dismantled.
Most works produced by my coworkers are abstract sculptures. Once in a
while you will see a ship or an airplane. So far I have not found any
people who shares my interests in building animals.
It seems that I take this lunchtime activity more seriously than my
coworkers. I always get laughed upon, when in the middle of lunch, I
suddenly stand up and walk from one table to another, seeking for a
brick in the right color and shape.
Cheers,
Hao-yang Wang
