While I was sitting in the common room, I saw the two young boys walked around eating the watermelon. I call them and tell them why they eat watermelon with their dirty hands? They said: "We’re starving, so we’ve got no choice and it’s a little piece of watermelon that we share together".

After listening to the reaction of these young children, I remembered this French adage which said that: "Ventre affamé n'a point d'oreilles (Hungry belly has no ears)".
