Join us at the Aftermath for a relaxing night of movie and drinks. Each event, a participant from this group picks a theme of three movies, then at the next event the group will vote on one of these movies to watch together. After the movie, participants can stay to continue discussing the film or hang out at the bar that will continue staying open. So join with all your film passion, bring friends along and enjoy a fun and interactive evening in good company!! **This showing's theme** If HK has a hold over you during the holidays, be it fate or a ticking need, join us for a most entertaining night as we celebrate New Year Films together, in a very loud boom ! **tick, tick… BOOM!**, 2021 ‧ 1h55 Trailer: https://youtu.be/YJserno8tyU?si=fm6BVGU1T1vBXyBM **About Fate**, 2022 ‧ 1h40 Trailer: https://youtu.be/BVtN9rwoGpw?si=7Up_dLimfByvSlSe **The Holdovers**, 2023 ‧ 2h15 Trailer: https://youtu.be/AhKLpJmHhIg?si=WiIBodFrZiH23gbS Points to note: * Since the bar is gracious enough to host us without a cover charge, participants must buy at least one drink/food item in order to attend 🙏 * Please try to come on time (on or before 7:00pm) so you can buy your food and drinks and settle down ready for the movie. * We watch the three trailers and vote for one film to watch. We aim to screen the trailers around 7:15pm and start the movie at 7:30pm. * All movies will be subtitled in English. * The venue does get cold so bring a coat or extra sweater! * After the movie usually some members will hang around for a drink. Feel free to join us for a discussion about the movie or anything else. If you have any questions please contact one of the organisers. If you are interested in hosting or would like to suggest a theme, we'd love to hear from you!

This is a fun quiz with varied topics, but it normally does not have many sports questions. Team can have up to six. I need to book tables ahead so please RSVP early if possible.

"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's mind there are few." — Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind Do you remember the wonder of learning something for the very first time? The **Beginner's Mind** (Shoshin) is that state of open, eager, and unbiased curiosity—free from the assumptions, judgments, and expertise that can narrow our vision over time. In our pursuit of mastery, we often lose the very quality that makes learning magical. This Curious Souls Cafe is an invitation to rediscover that state. We'll explore how to gently set aside our inner "expert" to make room for fresh questions, unexpected connections, and genuine awe. This isn't about ignoring experience, but about learning to see with new eyes again: * How can a beginner's mindset transform a routine task? * How can "not knowing" improve our conversations? * How can curiosity be a guide through uncertainty? In addition, we'll also explore how this mindset differs from the uninformed overconfidence described by the [Dunning-Kruger effect](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect), focusing instead on the humble, active curiosity that fuels real growth. Join us to celebrate the courage and joy of being a perpetual beginner. Inviting all who are... 🌱 Feeling stuck in familiar patterns and seeking a fresh perspective. 🎨 Longing to reconnect with the pure joy of learning, just for its own sake. 🧠 Curious about how to quiet the inner critic or the "expert" voice that says, "I already know." 🤔 Navigating a life transition or new challenge and wanting to approach it with openness. ✨ Interested in how humility and curiosity can lead to deeper wisdom than certainty ever could. 📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience 💬 Icebreaker Conversation Cards (Round 1) We will use virtual question cards. Here are some sample questions. * What's something simple you learned or noticed recently that gave you a genuine sense of wonder or "beginner's mind"? * Describe a time when admitting "I don't know" led to a better outcome or a more interesting conversation. * What is a subject, skill, or activity you once felt excited about that now feels routine or burdensome? What changed? * The Dunning-Kruger effect suggests we need knowledge to see our own ignorance. How does this create a paradox for cultivating a "beginner's mind"? From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group. Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available. 💬 Spontaneous Reflective Question (Optional Round) After warming up, our diverse group of friends and strangers will come together in a circle to exchange ideas on an intriguing topic chosen spontaneously. We may either continue with questions from the round one, or write our own questions. Each participant is encouraged to contribute by sharing a unique question. You’re welcome to bring a question that’s been on your mind, or you can draw inspiration from the conversation cards provided. Once all the questions are collected, the group will collaboratively select one to kick off the discussion. 💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback Where time allows, in the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together. After the event officially concludes, the group may choose to extend the session, depending on the group’s interest. Of course, you’re welcome to leave at any time that feels right for you. An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner.
