To be honest, I don't even remember if it's called Box OF Rice, or Box O' Rice. I hope it's Box O' Rice. It just sounds cooler that way. But anyway. I went there last Friday for dinner, and it was my first time there. It's a cozy little place right next to my dorm, and they serve exactly what their name implies: boxes of rice. Boxes of rice with toppings, of course. Emphasis on the word "boxes." Which means there are no plates involved. Which means you can bring the boxes in and out of the store as you please.

He's a lot cleaner now :3 (yes, he's a "he") Did some last-minute shopping with Momsie. Ate nachos with Momlet. Ate a burrito with the Momster. Reserved some tickets for a visit home in August! :D ...
