Say Chocolate?

Meal of the week
Thai chicken lettuce wrap. $5.95. OVT. Delicious chicken in peanut sauce with veggies and two generous scoops of rice. Messy to eat but definitely worth the taste!

What better way to end the week after midterms than playing carnival games and eating all the chocolate you can get? The Sixth College's sixth annual chocolate festival was held yesterday in the Res Hall Quad, a place I've never even passed by before. My friends and I started our journey at the Sixth college Pepper Canyon Apartments and soon found a mini canyon separating us from delicious chocolate:
I really love the natural green of our campus, especially now that it's spring and all the flowers are blooming. It makes walking to a campus event so much more enjoyable. My friends and I always have this urge to get out, go on hikes, and just explore the various trails throughout UCSD.

One of three at Sixth College!
We were limited to three items that we could dip, and it's terribly difficult trying to choose between bananas, cream puffs, marshmallows and the quickly snatched up strawberries. 

Besides the main attraction, the outside festivities were perfect for a sunny, breezy Friday. You could tell when balloon animals and figures were distributed by the rush of people towards the center of the festivities. People chatted and relaxed along the grassy field, or tried to out-eat their competition at a chocolate donut eating contest. First place gets an absurd amount of amazing prizes, ranging from free raffle tickets for Apple products to a free box of chocolate donuts.

Ready...get set...eat!
