Struggling with study or learning? You’re not alone.
**Struggling with study or learning? You’re not alone.**
This meetup suits people at all levels of study skill.
Too many children, teenagers, and adults find studying difficult—not because they lack ability, but because they were never taught **how to learn**.
This meetup introduces the basics of **Study Technology**—a practical, proven approach that shows how learning really works and how to overcome common study barriers. It applies to children, teens (and parents), teachers, and adults alike.
You’ll discover simple, effective methods to improve understanding, confidence, and performance—whether at school, work, or online. Teachers and parents often see rapid improvements in both behaviour and results.
Yes, it *is* possible to improve study performance—in just **five easy steps**.
If you can’t attend in person, online options are available.
**Join us and learn how to study effectively—once and for all.**
See you at the meetup,
**Pam**
When learning clicks, confidence follows.
This Life – The Buddha’s guide to inner transformation
The Buddhist spiritual path centres on our own mind’s vast potential for peace, compassion and wisdom. True lasting happiness does not depend on external factors but comes from looking inwards to better know our own mind and heart. This course presents key insights from the Buddha’s life and teachings to show how, through meditation and shifting our focus inwards, we can find true, unending contentment.
This course presents key Buddhist frameworks that guide our path, including:
* The three vehicles of Buddhism, which progressively show how we can nurture our innate peace, compassion and wisdom.
* The four seals, which encapsulate what is unique about the Buddha’s teachings and sets them apart from other religions and philosophies.
Including teachings from foremost Tibetan masters of our time, space for contemplation, reflection and discussion, and guided meditations, this course will give you practical tools to help you work with your mind and take charge of your spiritual path.

The Sheep Detectives - 6:40 p.m. - Monday 25/5 May at the Nova
Hugh Jackman and Emma Thompsons new film.
“The Sheep Detectives brims with charm, wit, and a twisty murder mystery that can only be solved by the most endearing set of farm animals since Farmer Hoggett said “That’ll do” to Babe the pig.” [RogerEbert.com](http://RogerEbert.com)
“What really lingers after The Sheep Detectives is its tone: earnest, uncomplicated sweetness, rooted in the love that we — whether human or sheep — have for those with whom we share our lives, and a gentle acceptance of loss as part of that love.” The Seattle Times.
We will meet at the Nova Bar from 6 p.m. onwards. Please book your tickets early, Stefan - 0437777522

Slow Melbourne - Tram Ride, Conversations & Unexpected Views
Ever noticed how some of the best conversations happen while walking, travelling, or simply sharing an experience?
With PTV free this month, it felt like the perfect excuse to do something a little different 🚋
Tomorrow we're hopping on one of Melbourne’s most scenic tram routes and slowly exploring the city together.
No pressure. No networking. No forced introductions.
Just people, views, stories, and a little adventure.
📍 Meet: Southern Cross Station (under the large clocks near the main entrance)
🕒 Time: Tomorrow, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
🚋 Route: Route 96 Tram (towards St Kilda)
💰 Cost: $4 (helps cover Meetup platform costs)
We'll ride together, hop off for a short wander, and leave space for natural conversations to unfold.
Along the ride we'll have simple connection prompts and mini challenges:
* Spot something outside that reminds you of a memory
* Point out the most “Melbourne” thing you see
* Share a place in the world you'd move to tomorrow
* Find something unusual and tell us why it caught your attention
**Payment details**
Account name - Social Threads
BSB - 063106
Account number - 10989323
Payment confirms your spot.
No age limit. No expectations. Come as you are.
Social Threads exists because connection was never meant to have barriers.
See Melbourne through someone else’s eyes ❤️
🎨 Street Art Photo Walk & Conversation - Melb CBD
Join us for a relaxed street art walk through Melbourne's CBD, exploring laneways, murals, and hidden creative spots while enjoying easy, natural conversation along the way.
If you love photography, bring your camera or smart phone (charged) to snap some fun photos along the way. We often pose in front of our fave artworks. Be prepared to be silly with me 🤪… (optional of course)
This event is about moving at a comfortable pace, noticing what’s around us, and letting conversation unfold organically as we walk. There’s no need for art knowledge - curiosity is more than enough.
The walk has a **light structure to help things flow**, but nothing rigid. You’re welcome to chat as much or as little as you like and enjoy the experience in your own way.
After the walk, there are options to go for some Haigh's chocolate, or an afternoon dumplings snack, or play games at KingPin - talk to the people as we walk and see who might like to join you afterwards (completely optional).
This event is best suited to adults **approx. 25–50 who are young-at-heart** and enjoy exploring the city, being outdoors, and connecting through shared experiences. Strict age limit = 18+
Recommendation: Download the "Street Art Cities" app which we will use to hunt down the art.

## 💘 KISMETRIX \| True Connection
[Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/may-28-game-on-the-kismetrix-trivia-night-konar-bar-tickets-1988470004311?aff=oddtdtcreator)
### GAME ON — THE KISMETRIX TRIVIA NIGHTDrinks, Banter & Real Connection
Hosted by **KISMETRIX \| True Connection**
📍 Konar Bar — Private Dining Room (Downstairs): 483 North Road, Ormond Vic 3204
📅 Thursday, 28 May 2026
🕖 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM (Venue open late)
#### BACK. UPGRADED. AND A WHOLE LOT OF FUN.
Never done trivia? Perfect. Neither has half the room.
This isn't about what you know. It's about who you end up laughing with by the end of the night.
The KISMETRIX Trivia Night is back — and this year we've stepped it up. We now have our own in-house host and an exclusive private room just for Kismetrix guests. Same great energy from last year, but more intimate, more personal, and a whole lot more fun.
No speed dating. No awkward mingling. No standing around with a drink wondering what to say. Just teams, trivia, a bit of friendly rivalry, and the kind of atmosphere where strangers become easy company.
#### 💫 ABOUT THE NIGHT
Tired of the same old bar scene? Not quite ready for a formal dinner event? This is the sweet spot.
KISMETRIX \| True Connection was created for people who want something more human — real conversation\, real presence\, and a genuine good time\. The Trivia Night is our most fun and relaxed format\, and it's exclusively for Kismetrix guests\.
You'll walk into a private room full of people who:
🎯 Are open, friendly and easy-going
🎯 Want a fun night out that feels natural — not forced
🎯 Prefer real-life connection over swiping
🎯 Are simply here to enjoy themselves and see where the night goes
Come for the trivia. Stay for the laughs. See who you meet along the way.
#### 🎯 WHAT TO EXPECT
You'll arrive to a private room — no general public, just Kismetrix guests. You'll be placed into a small team of around six, the questions will start, and within ten minutes you'll forget you didn't know anyone when you walked in.
Expect:
🎯 A welcome drink waiting when you arrive
🎯 A warm hosted welcome so nobody walks in feeling lost
🎯 Fun, accessible trivia rounds — no expertise required
🎯 Rotating teams through the night so you meet different people across different rounds
🎯 A mystery round (yes, really)
🎯 A prize worth playing for
🎯 Plenty of laughs, friendly arguing, and genuinely good company
Our in-house Kismetrix host keeps the energy warm and the night moving — so it always feels like a night out with good people, not a structured event.
#### 👥 AGE GUIDE
🎯 25–35 · 30–45 · 40–58
Kismetrix Trivia Night is open to all singles who are here for a good time and genuine connection. We provide age groups so you know what to expect from the room. The focus is always on good energy and like-minded people — not strict age gates.
If you're slightly outside a range and the format feels right for you, you're welcome to book.
#### 🎯 WHO THIS NIGHT IS FOR
This event is for singles who:
🎯 Want a fun, social night out that's a little different
🎯 Are curious about Kismetrix but want a low-pressure way to start
🎯 Love trivia — or have never done it but like the sound of it
🎯 Want to meet new people without it feeling like a "singles event"
🎯 Are open, friendly, and ready for a genuinely good Thursday night
Come solo — most people do. You'll be in good company from the moment you walk in.
#### 🍽 FOOD & DRINKS
Your ticket includes one standard welcome drink on arrival.
Konar Bar has a great food and drinks menu available throughout the night, directly from the venue. Perfect if you'd like to make a full evening of it — and many of our guests do.
#### 🎟 TICKETS
🎯 Early Bird — $39
🎯 General — $49
🎯 Last Minute — $59
Welcome drink included at every tier. Spots are strictly limited to 7–8 tables to keep the night intimate and social — early booking is strongly recommended.
*Last year's event sold out. Don't sit on it.*
#### 💡 WHY PEOPLE LOVE KISMETRIX EVENTS
🎯 No swiping. No apps. Just real people in a real room
🎯 No awkward formats or forced interactions
🎯 A genuinely fun night — even if you come solo
🎯 Exclusively for Kismetrix guests — private room, warm atmosphere
🎯 Hosted by people who actually care about how the night feels
Many guests come "just to try it" — and end up staying all night.
#### ✨ WHERE THE TRIVIA NIGHT FITS
The KISMETRIX Trivia Night sits alongside our Drinks Socials, Elevated Dinners, and Activity Nights as one of our most fun and accessible formats. If you've been curious about Kismetrix, this is one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways to experience what we do.
#### 🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES
🎯 This is a hosted social experience — not speed dating
🎯 A welcome drink is included; additional drinks and food are available at the venue
🎯 Gender balance is carefully aimed for but not always guaranteed
🎯 Respect, boundaries, and good energy are essential at all Kismetrix events
🎯 Tickets are non-refundable but transferable

**Sun 31 May • 4–6pm • The Tower Hotel, East Hawthorn**
A boutique facilitated event for singles who value humour, depth and conscious connection.
If you’re tired of the apps, awkward small talk, being single or feeling misunderstood by the opposite sex, this ***pre‑launch event*** (with socialising afterwards), offers something completely different.
This is **not** speed‑dating.
It’s **not** therapy.
It’s an **educational, insightful group experience** designed to help men and women understand each others wants and needs more deeply - in a way that feels safe, fun, and surprisingly easy.
*"Until you make the unconscious conscious it will direct your life and you will call it fate"- Carl Jung*
**BOOK NOW. LIMIITED SPACES.**

**This event helps you:**

* get clear on your wants, needs and boundaries
* rebuild trust between the sexes
* learn a new modern dating and relating model

Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event:
DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor.
BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!”
