Why Is Buzzfeed So Buzz Worthy?

As ubiquitous as Facebook has become, seeing a Buzzfeed article at the top of a Facebook newsfeed has become nearly as frequent. What’s more, the Buzzfeed phenomenon escalated seemingly overnight. Its description on the site characterizes Buzzfeed as “the social news and entertainment company,” an appropriately catch-all description for its wide range of content. Presumptuous […]

Restaurant Review: La Diosa Cellars

After three and a half years of living in Lubbock I finally got to try the hype that I had been missing out on. Welcome to La Diosa, a bohemian style bistro with Spanish flare. The moment I walked into the venue I found it inviting. I went to dinner with my mother and from […]

Started From The Bottom, a Review

The first time I heard their music I had randomly stumbled upon it via Spotify, and needless to say, I was intrigued. A guy who chooses to ‘wear moccasins someone else has been walkin’ in’ and raps about gay marriage like a boss? Yeah, I’m listening. Last week I attended my first Macklemore and Ryan […]

The Ender's Game: Movie Review

In 1985, Orson Scott Card published Ender’s Game, a science fiction story of a boy being forced into early manhood to fulfill the needs of billions. It was a grand story about dealing with the loss of childhood, free will, and respect for life. It went on to be recognized as one of the greatest pieces […]

Poll Results: Kent Hance and Pop Culture

Zombies and Miley Cyrus and government shutdown, oh my! Earlier this month, Public Policy Polling posted the results of a survey testing Americans’ approval of Congress – and the reactions were interesting. During the government shutdown, respondents had a lower opinion of Congress than subjects ranging from zombies to potholes to cockroaches. Congress was still […]

Guess What Day It Is?!

Last week I visited Whitley Acres to meet with Debbie Whitley and her two camels, Rango and Caramel. The pair has been seen in the Lubbock area throughout the semester. Rango and Caramel have been out for Tech game days, and even out to some of the local bars! To learn a little more about […]

The Prophet Darla: Review

There’s something about a women crying her eyes out because she’s been through hell and back that really resonates with me. There’s something about a priest contorting the mind of an innocent human being because they can’t get off their heavenly high horse that I’ve seen far too often. And there’s definitely something that hits […]
