It isn't fiesta without a Chicken on a Stick.

It's fiesta time in San Antonio, TX. A time of the year that some would say is an excuse for citizens to come together and get drunk every night for a week. Regardless for any native San Antonia, fiesta has a special place in your heart. Fiesta is not an event taken lightly as there is several events and even Fiesta Royalty. However everyone knows that the real royalty is the food. Here are some of the best fiesta foods:

1. Chicken on a stick

The real fiesta king is chicken on a stick. Fried to perfection and topped with a juicy jalapeño, chicken on a stick was made for convenience.

2. Shrimp on a stick

3. Fried everything!

Fiesta is the event to get any food you want fried. There are a plethora of options between Oreos, Twinkles, Snickers bars and cheesecake, to name a few.The perfect balance between sweet and salty.

4. Funnel cake

Funnel cakes are fried but they deserve their own category. A common fair food, fiesta turns this classic into art, providing a variety of toppings and options.

5. Fruit cups

6. Oysters

Oyster Bake is a traditional fiesta event that takes place on the campus of St. Mary's University. Toward the back of the event there are over 3 booths with oyster options. It isn't Oyster Bake until you crack open an oyster.

7. Ribbon fries

Putting regular and curly fries to shame, ribbon fries are made fresh. Their strange models an art form.

8. Turkey leg

Second to the chicken on stick, no one can resist biting into a juicy turkey leg.

9. Corn in the cup

10. Beer

Beer may not be a food but it's the reason 90 percent of people show up to Oyster Bake. The other 10 percent are probably underage. At this point I'm pretty sure being hungover during fiesta week is a reasonable excuse to call in the next day.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
