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 thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
