Wake Me Up When September Ends: Emo Fun Run & Social Hour!
Poison Girl, 1641 Westheimer, Houston, TX, USLace up your black Converse and smudge on that eyeliner bc our social club is closing out September with an emo-themed fun run! All levels welcome! We’ll jog, walk, or dramatically shuffle down the trail to the soundtrack of Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and Green Day (because, obviously). After the run, stick around for a social hour where we’ll reminisce about the golden age of angst over drinks at Poison Girl. Whether you’re running for fitness, friendship, or just to scream-sing "Bring Me To Life" in good company, this is the perfect way to end September with new connections and nostalgic feels!

Listen to our pregame playlist here on Spotify to get hyped!Social Anxiety?!
We get it. It's weird to meet strangers off the internet - & our parents definitely told us not to! We recommend grabbing a drink (alcoholic or non!) to have something to hold/sip for the inevitable awkward silences. Planning ahead, dressing in something that makes you feel confident, & thinking of some of your interests/potential conversations before arriving are some tips to ensure you have a fun night. Not to self-promote but our podcast is also pretty helpful to learn some friending basics!Let's stay connected!

La Mex, 1223 W 34th Street, Houston, TX, USYou can judge me but everything I know about Día De Los Muertos I learned from watching Disney's Coco. & TBH that is something I should be judged for. Great movie, love the concept of remembering the dead with the Americanized twists of indulging in too many tacos, queso, margaritas.
Let's celebrate Day of the Dead with dinner/drinks, socializing, and a few fun rounds of Lotería! Lotería is basically Mexican bingo. We'll have themed cards and prizes to celebrate the holiday. Let's get spooky & lucky!

15 attendeesGen Z Vs Millennial Karaoke Social Night! 🎤🕺🏽✨
Glitter Karaoke, 2621 Milam Street, Houston, TX, USI'm a Millennial... but by looking at my Spotify wrapped each year, you might have a hard time guessing if I'm Gen X, Gen Z, a Boomer, or honestly even the Silent Generation with my love for Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald - that's range, baby! We have all age ranges in our group but I thought it would be a fun spin to host a Karaoke night where attendees can pick a side: Millennial or Gen Z & sing their heart out to tunes from those years!
Come join us for a night of friendly singing competition, dinner/drinks, and making new friends! To answer your question, no - you don't have to sing! Come support, place your vote, and lip-sync your heart out to Hannah Montana or HUNTR/X.
