By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor I’ll just put this out here, names are getting more and more creative these days. Yes, the black community is especially known for unique names that are far from the basic. People of the black community may experience discrimination because of their names whether it be in the workforce or in their daily lives. For example, I will throw a stereotypical black name out […]
By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor On October 10th, Anthony Graves spoke at Evans Auditorium about his experience on death row for a crime he had not committed. It was a normal day for Anthony Graves when someone told him the police were looking for him. He went to the authorities to ask about what was going on, and there it happened; he was arrested for a crime he had […]
By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor The world is aching for the victims and their loved ones. What happened in Las Vegas is sickening and the work of the devil. Situations like this cause people to want to stay cooped up at home when they should be out enjoying a concert or movie. We can’t live in fear. We would be letting them win if we did. Our brave nation […]
By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor As an avid Twitter user over the years, I’ve noticed the trend of “stans”. It’s a blend of two words: stalker and fan. Basically, if you are an obsessed fan of a celebrity, you are a stan. Most people will think they are annoying and biased, but if you ever come across a stan account for a celebrity you really admire, it just might […]

By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor It’s that time of the year again. FAFSA applications are now open! While I was filling out my last FAFSA application, I told my mom, “Screw this. I’m finishing my college education with a bachelor degree. I’m not doing this again for grad school.” A bit dramatic, but answering redundant questions gets annoying. Thankfully, FAFSA has been using the 2016 tax return for the […]
By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor One of my favorite TV characters, Hank Moody once said, “Is it possible that longing for something is better than having it? I’ve heard it said that satisfaction is the death of desire.” Well it might be. We all have things we desire. It could be food, a certain place, a person or even a job position. Just about anything. The thing is, you […]
By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor Last week I went to the movies to watch It. I have never read the book, nor seen the original film from start to finish. As someone who was going into this movie without the memories of night terrors from Pennywise as a child, I was hoping this movie would scare me the same way my first horror movie did. I loved the film, and the […]
By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor I have only ever heard of matchmakers though TV shows or movies. Never have I met anyone who has used a service like this. To be honest, the whole idea reminds me of a sappy Lifetime movie. However, they are definitely real. I found a matchmaker company based out of Austin called “It’s Just Lunch,” or IJL. Their process to find you a significant […]
