Lions After Dark

The Lions After Dark crew is taking the program to the streets once again, with a live broadcast originating from the Sam Rayburn Student Center on Fridays during the Spring 2012 semester.

So I don't know about everyone else, but I'm totally ok with the fact that everywhere I go this time of year I hear Christmas music.  

'Tis the season to...spend lots of money?
That's what I felt like after doing some major Christmas shopping today. There are always so many people to buy for: I don't want anyway to be left out, or think I didn't care enough to spend more time or money on them.

So tonight, I've tracked down some tips from another great blog called Surviving College Life, and I'm also going to throw in a couple of my own:

-Make it personal

Today we're taking a look back at an older show. Here's the show from May 11th. 2011 with rising rapper SLR on the campus of Texas A&M University - Commerce.

Here's the Lions After Dark show for November 28th.  We had Mikey live in studio with Power Play, a segment with the scoop on gaming! Plus we have those workout tips on how to work off that Thanksgiving meal!

1. Hot Tea –Tea is one of the most popular hot beverages around the world. sometimes a cup of chamomile is nice before bed time. Or maybe a hot chai tea, green tea, lemon tea, any tea!!! There are so many variations it’s impossible to list them all.

2. Coffee –Oh the possibilities!! There are so many types you’re bound to find you a favorite. I like adding Vanilla ice cream to my hot coffee.

3. Hot Chocolate –With or without marshmallows? One of our fans prefers it made with Abuelita Chocolate, others like Swiss Miss Or how about with a little Sugar Cane Rum. To add some extra flavor, try a dash of Kahlúa!

4. Hot Caramel Cider

Gaby's Holiday Shopping Tips!

Don't get carried away this season! Here's some tips I've arranged for you guys! ^_^

1. - Carry Cash! - don't get carried away with your own debit card carry cash, and when you run out you are done for the day! Also carry big bills because they are usually harder to break.

2. - Know your credit cards! Make sure you know your interest on your credit cards and beware of which you use. Read the fine print before you do some big shopping on them cards!

3. - Keep track of your spending. Keep your receipts and add them all up at the end of each shopping day!

1. Snickers -- A candy bar with substance. These peanut-filled chocolate bars are filling enough that kids may only be able to eat a few of them. Then again, you shouldn't underestimate the appetite of Halloween-crazed kids.

2. Nerds -- Basically, they are pure sugar coated with sugar. Nerds can be both fun and annoying due to the obnoxious rattling sound made by shaking the box. The best are the standard strawberry flavor.

3. M&Ms -- It wouldn't be Halloween without M&Ms. They are ingrained in our cultural psyche. If sugar and chocolate were medicine, they would come in the form of M&M's. Also, it can be funny to see how picky kids are about the color of the candy coating.

Thanks Adam Haney and Michael Martinez for stopping by and chatting with us on the show!

We had a great time with them and look forward to getting to meet more of the senators of SGA in the future! Plus lots of great stuff SGA is taking care of at the moment including the crosswalk at the intersection that crosses to Wal-Mart and then there's an great Mardi Gras Party to look forward to complements of SGA!

Sweet!

We had a great time on Sunday at the State Fair of Texas!  Me, Heather, and David got to try out all these great things we've been hearing about at the state fair!    We met some great people who were very fair savvy!
