We like to work off the extra calories acquired over the weekend… and Tuesdays…and Thursdays… by playing INTRAMURAL SPORTS every week! Basketball games start this Sunday at 4:30, and we could use some more girl players! No worries if you’ve never played any of these sports before; we’ll be playing in the least competitive division so it’s all for fun! Other sports during the semester include Soccer, Softball, and Water Volleyball. If you haven’t signed up with us yet and are interested in playing any of these sports, please email us at members@planetlonghorn.net with your UT EID!

We also know that meeting Internationals or Americans is a tough job when there is already so much going on. Planet Longhorn is here to help make that easier for you with our BUDDY PROGRAM! If there are any Internationals looking to get to know Americans on a more personal level or vice versa, shoot us an email and we’ll send you an easy application!

Last but definitely not least, we’ll be meeting at pubs and bars around campus and the local Austin area every other Thursday at a new venue to help you discover everything Austin has to offer. If you’re interested in getting messages about where we’ll be meeting, join our brand new facebook group “Planet Longhorn Thursday Cultural Excursions” to get all the details about where we’ll meet and when!

NOTE: Most of these bars are 18 & up so everyone is welcome to come hang out!

Time to get acquainted with the many beautiful, historical buildings in Austin… And by that we mean getting acquainted with sixth street! Come out and enjoy the $2 wells at Peckerheads and $2.50 wells at Blind Pig, just to name a few.

We are meeting on Friday, January 22 at the E-bus stop on 26th and Rio Grand at 9 PM, make sure you are on time so we can start the party because if you’re late you’ll just have to meet us downtown. The party will not wait for you!

Here is our schedule. Write it down!

1. Beauty Bar (9:30-10:15)
2. Creekside Lounge (10:15-11)
3. Blind Pig (11:15-12)
4. Peckerheads (12-1)
5. Malaia (1 until the end of the night!)

Today is kind of the biggest day of the year. and your life.

Some of us will be watching UT dominate Alabama in the Block Games Room in the Block Apartments on 25th and Pearl. Game starts at 7pm, but we’ll be there from 5 on. Come join us if you’re in town!

So where is this Block Games Room? Walk down 25th Street going away from campus (west) and before you get to the Block apartment at Pearl St., there is a large alleyway; turn right down the alley, and the door is on your left next to the garage. If you have any questions or problems feel free to call one of us:

We will be projecting a slideshow of great photos from this semester on the wall inside, so send James Chiang a facebook message if you have any photos you want included.

We might also have a picture area set up for you to take your own holiday photos with everyone you love, or even the people you don’t!

The party will officially start as soon as the UT football game ends because it’s a big game! Lets drink until we think we see Santa!!!**

**Please don’t actually chase after Santa if you do, in fact, think you see him. It is probably a car, or a scared bearded man wearing red running away from you.
