Colombian cuisines are known to be one of the most delicious and most satisfying foods on Earth, and while Colombian food is not on CNN Travel's Which country has the best food? and while it may sound biased, it's true.

Here are some of the dishes and appetizers you can order at your nearest Colombian restaurant.

1. Bandeja Paisa

The one dish you will end up choosing, without a doubt, when you go to the restaurant.

2. Arepa con Queso

Best corn breads you'll have.

3. Tamales


Tamales Vallunos are the best.

4. Empanadas con Ají

The spicier the ají, the better the taste.

5. Buñuelos con Natilla


Although this is a typical Christmas dish, you can eat it whenever.

6. Arroz con Pollo

Chicken with rice a lo Colombiano.

7. Bistec a Caballo

And no, there are no horses involved.

8. Sancocho de Gallina

And if it's robada y correteada, the better.

9. Lechona

As long as you don't look at the pig in the eye, you won't feel guilty for enjoying it so much.

10. Picada

Just... *heart eyes emoji*

11. Sopa de Mondongo

Yes, it's a tripe soup, but don't knock it till you've try it.

12. Ajiaco

Best soup you'll find Bogotá.

13. Chorizo Santarrosano

Best sausages on Earth.

14. Fritanga

Best grease overdose you'll have.

15. Frijoles Colombianos

You can never go wrong with these.

Hope you enjoy my foods as much as I do.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning. No matter how functionally dysfunctional your friend group may be, if you're anything like me, you feel absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful group of humans to call "your people." Here is what your friend group might look like if they were Disney princesses (and that wasn't just a thing you all pretended in your heads):
