âšAfter WiC - Mayo
âš Inauguramos los Afters WIC âš
WIC estĂĄ formado e impulsado por su comunidad, y por eso queremos abrir un espacio distinto.
Sin charlas.
Sin slides.
Sin estructura.
Solo un after para conocernos mĂĄs, charlar, reĂrnos, compartir algo rico y conectar con otras mujeres en tech en un ambiente relajado y sin presiĂłn.
VenĂs cuando querĂ©s, te vas cuando querĂ©s.
PodĂ©s hablar de tecnologĂa, de trabajo, de la vida, de proyectos, o simplemente venir a pasar un buen rato âš
Y tambiĂ©n queremos que este espacio sirva para pensar juntas el futuro de la comunidad: ideas, propuestas, cosas que les gustarĂa ver en WIC⊠porque acĂĄ no hay âlĂderesâ y âasistentesâ. Todas somos parte de construir este espacio đ
Si alguna vez dijiste:
âme gustarĂa conocer mĂĄs gente en la comunidadâ
âquiero conectar con otras mujeres en techâ
âtengo ideas pero no sĂ© dĂłnde compartirlasâ
Este after es para vos.
đ Presencial â Aroha, Buenos Aires

Burnaby Interactive Speed Dating for First-timers
**đ Speed Dating Built for Locals for Burnaby Locals**
As a guest, you'll enjoy guided one-on-one video rounds with Burnaby singles matched to you by age and personality, with someone hosting live from start to finish.
As part of your registration, you complete a short personality quiz â those results are used to match you with Burnaby people who are actually compatible, so every person you meet has been matched to you on purpose.
Once the evening wraps up, your mutual matches are disclosed â with no one-sided reach-outs ever happening â and from that point you call the shots.
**Registration â choose your age group:**
- **Ages 18-32** â [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=18-32&face_v=6.0)
- **Ages 30-46** â [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=30-46&face_v=6.0)
- **Ages 40-58** â [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=40-58&face_v=6.0)
- **Ages 55+** â [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Burnaby&groupurlname=sparking-lasting-ties-through-outdoor-socials&ar=55+&face_v=6.0)
**â ïž Please note:** Rsvping on meetup does not confirm your spot at the event, so click your age range link above, complete the sign-up, and take the personality questions â limited capacity means you should not wait, and only a completed registration locks in your seat.
---
**Perfect for:**
- Professionals from around Burnaby getting away from unread messages and dead-end conversations and are serious about meeting someone.
- Individuals from around Burnaby getting away from matches that ghost after two messages and need a better way to meet people.
- Returners around Burnaby moving on from shallow connections that never lead anywhere and are ready for a genuine first impression.
**What happens**
1. **Grab your spot** â through the age group link above, then complete the short personality quiz, as the quiz plus registration is what counts.
2. **Join Zoom** â by opening the Zoom link at the event start, phone computer or tablet â whatever you prefer, and everything runs on the host's schedule from that point.
3. **Go through the rounds** â back-to-back private Zoom rounds with personality-matched Burnaby locals in your group, as the host keeps everything smooth and well-timed, as every round is with someone selected for you by the quiz.
4. **Review your matches** â we share mutual match results after the session closes, with no one-sided reach-outs since only mutual matches get each other's details, and then the rest is yours to decide entirely.
đĄ **Worth knowing:** log into Zoom five minutes early, so nothing interrupts the flow of a good conversation, and the host handles everything else from that point.

âš Real people, short rounds, no apps â use the link above to register and the evening takes care of itself whenever you are set. See you in the first round. đ«¶ âš
Shut Up & Write!Âź East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! Weâve discovered that itâs strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if itâs true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
**SCHEDULE:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
