Borders Our host, Jenn, is looking for stories about borders. A physical barricade. A social stigma. A self-imposed ideal. What borders have you had to cross? We’re looking for true, first-person stories about getting past whatever’s in your way, or at least trying your darndest to. The *Borders* live storytelling show is on Thursday, 30th April. If you’ve got a story or just an idea in mind, come to one of our pitch workshops at the beginning of April. If your story is shortlisted for the show, our host will work with you as you polish and rehearse it. 📌 Story Requirements: * Your story must be true * It must be told in the first person—you are the main character * It should be between 5-10 minutes You don't need to have a completed or polished story ready - just a beginning idea is okay. This workshop is open to individuals at all levels, first-timers or old hands. The purpose of Hong Kong Stories is to help you become a better storyteller. Everyone has a story to tell, and everyone loves a story. Note: Please update your RSVP, ideally 12 hours before the event if you're unable to make it. Repeated no shows will be moved to not-going / removed from the group to open up slot for people on the waitlist.

I teach every week at the New Era Martial Club Quarry Bay and it has a n:

**Transportation of all kinds, just not walking.** **This week’s theme is getting around**—the cities choreography and human drama of boarding, riding, waiting, parking, squeezing through, loading up, breaking down, **and all the hardware required.** **We're after wheels of all kinds—transportation, the hardware and hard feelings of this urban experience:** buses, minibuses, bikes, scooters, motorcycles, cars, and everything that comes with them—the queues, doors, climbing in or out hands on rails, bumpers, parking lots, curbside chaos, the beauty and the gore of daily transportation scene. Wheelchairs count. A kid on a dad’s shoulder counts too. *** #### **What To Look For:** #### **Bus Life** * Double-deckers and minibuses pulling in, idling for the exits and queue, lurching away like a small boat in a big wave. * Minibuses. Say no more—they're go-carts driven by crazy men. Go ride one and document it. * People waiting in a queue, entertained in unison with their phones, watching for the route number * Boarding + exiting: stepping up, tapping cards, squeezing past, jumping off late * Faces in windows, reflections, pressed hands on glass * The stop itself: shelters, signage, curb paint, the crowd forming and dissolving #### **Two Wheels + Engines** * Bikes and scooters in motion or locked up in clusters * Motorcycles: riding, filtering traffic, revving at lights * Parked motorcycles: tight rows, covers, helmets, scratched tanks, chrome + grime #### **Cars + The Infrastructure Around Them** * Parking behavior: double-parks, tight squeezes, loading zones, hazards on * Bumpers and bodywork: dents, tape fixes, scraped paint, polished shine * People with cars: leaning, cleaning, unloading, waiting, waving someone in, or more likely, looking too smug. #### **Also In Scope (Any transport besides walking)** * Delivery vehicles, cargo bikes, sidewalk carts being towed/pushed as part of a transport moment * Wheelchairs navigating ramps/curbs, getting on/off transit, moving through crowds *** ### **Moments to Hunt** * The choreography: doors open → line compresses → bodies flow → doors close * Transfers: the hurried decision, the glance, the sprint, the missed connection * Crowd physics: who yields, who blocks, who slips through * Sound made visible: vibration, exhaust heat, motion blur, rain spray, headlight glare * Beauty + gore: ishiny scooter next to a wrecked bumper; order and mess in the same frame *** ### **How to Shoot It** * Try from the inside: again, minibuses! * Use shutter speed deliberately: freeze the step, blur the rush, streak the lights * Work the edges: hands on poles, feet at the threshold, ticket taps, mirrors, bumpers * Look for layers: reflections in windows, faces behind glass, overlapping vehicles *** ### **Meet-Up Details** * **Start: 3:00 PM** * Location: Jordan Station, Exit A, street level * Jordan (TWL) Exit A puts you immediately on Nathan Rd and Jordan Roads, good for bus stops, minibuses passing/pausing, queues, boarding/alighting, and it’s a clean launch point to walk west to Canton Road or northwest to Austin Rd for parking, scooters and motorcycles. * * **Debrief: 4:30 PM** at: MOBIN * Located in: [Eaton](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=4f709db2114f009d&cs=1&output=search&q=Eaton+HK&ludocid=3663969110848279377&lsig=AB86z5VzaFZpaOTxe4Bj2CTndz2L&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjTg_6T2cyTAxUhJNAFHXe5MqcQ8G0oAHoECBQQAQ) Hotel * 380 Nathan Rd, Jordan, Hong Kong *** ### **After the Walk** * Post 5–10 images. * Aim for a mix of: * Waiting / boarding / riding * Parked / jammed / damaged / polished * Wide scenes + tight details The goal: photograph how the city moves because of transportation — and what it does to people (and what people do to it). Catch the line. Catch the door. Catch the moment it all moves.

Dinner and dancing

Main Library, Meeting Room 3B Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen). Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.

Interested? Contact Preston Moore k.preston.moore@gmail.com 614-300-5989 ———————————— Engaging in men’s work is the new way to forge friendships while being open-minded to personal growth. Many men experience healthier relationships, personally and professionally, by engaging in this work. Open Men’s Group is a container for men to share vulnerably without receiving judgment or feedback. We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of society’s deepest wounds. We support the powerful brilliance of men and we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating – and suffering. We care deeply about men, our families, communities, and the planet. Visit ManKind Project USA to discover more. https://mkpusa.org/

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime. Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised (GFC website preferred)! Please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtimes and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
