Shut up and write 2026- WEDNESDAYS--Bukit Timah
**Coworking for writers in your area**
Join us for some focused writing time on Wednesdays ....All writers and all experience levels are welcome, and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in your area.
When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re all settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, I will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session.
Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries!
**A note about the format**
We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.

THE HUNT | EVERY WEDNESDAY | GAMIFIED NETWORKING
**Bored of the same old awkward networking events? Swap the resume swapping for a heart-racing mid-week adrenaline boost.**
Welcome to **The Hunt**, a weekly interactive gaming and trading experience hosted by the **Out of Office Hour Club (OOOH Club)**. Will drop you the location after you have RSVP-ed!
Whether you’re an expat looking for your crew, a digital nomad passing through Singapore, or a local professional wanting to shake up your Wednesday night, this is your after-hours community.
### 🎮 How "The Black Market Hunt" Works:
1. **The Secret Role:** At the door, you are handed a drink, a snack, and a secret envelope containing your hidden identity. Your scoring system depends entirely on your role.
2. **The Scavenge:** We unleash the crowd into two adjacent rooms. You have 20 minutes to find hidden physical "contraband".
3. **Market Opens:** Lies, Trades, Deals, Negotiation happens
It’s chaotic, collaborative, and mathematically forces you to interact with everyone in the room. No awkward introductions required, the game does 100% of the icebreaking for you.
### ⚠️ Strict Attendance Policy:
Because this game relies heavily on balanced team numbers and role distribution, slots are strictly limited to **20 pax per night**. Your trading partners are depending on you!
1. **Punctuality is key:** Please do not arrive late, or you will miss the role distribution and be locked out of the scavenge phase.
2. **6-Hour Notice:** If your plans change, you must update your RSVP **at least 6 hours before** the event. No-shows without prior notice will be placed on low priority for all future exclusive OOOH Club events.
**Ready to beat the mid-week slump?**
**🎟️ HOW TO SECURE YOUR SPOT (IMPORTANT)** *Please RSVP here and drop Chloe (+65 8813 2083) your Name, Age and Gender. Wait for the confirmation message (if slots are still available)*

Money, Life and Everything in Between
**The right conversation, with the right people, at the right time —**
**can quietly change everything.**
**I’ve experienced that firsthand.**
**Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to sit in rooms where people spoke openly about money — not in the way they teach you in school, but in the real, honest, this is what actually works kind of way. People who were generous with what they knew. People who made me see that a life of freedom and security wasn’t some distant dream reserved for a certain few.**
**It was closer than I ever imagined.**
**And somewhere along the way, a quiet thought became a conviction —**
**more people deserve to be in that room.**
**So I’m building it.**
**A small, intentional gathering in a private setting — for curious, open-hearted people who are ready to think differently about their future. People who are done leaving things to chance and want to start making it work with purpose. People who believe, like I do, that the most powerful thing we can do is learn from each other.**
**There’s no stage here. No performance.**
**Just a circle of real people — some who know a lot, some who are just beginning — coming together to share, to spark ideas, and to remind each other that we don’t have to figure this out alone.**
**This space is for you if:**
**🤍 You’re curious about your future but don’t know where to start**
**🤍 You’ve been quietly figuring things out and want to be around others doing the same**
**🤍 You believe in the power of good people and honest conversation**
**🤍 You’re ready to listen, share, and grow — with zero ego**
**This space is not for:**
**🚫 Salespeople or anyone with something to sell**
**🚫 MLM representatives**
**🚫 Anyone who comes to pitch, recruit, or promote**
**🚫 Aggressive personalities who talk over others**
**We protect this room carefully — because the quality of the conversation depends on the quality of the people in it.**
**No pressure. Nothing to prove.**
**Just the kind of conversation that lingers — and the kind of community that stays.**
**Come as you are.**
**There’s a seat here with your name on it. 🤍**
**📍 Private Office, Central Singapore**
**👥 Intentionally intimate — seats are limited**
**To confirm your seat:**
**A quick note on RSVPs — like many of you know, our Meetup events tend to get a lot of sign-ups and not everyone makes it eventually. Because this room has limited seats and I want every chair filled with someone who genuinely wants to be here, I’m doing this one a little differently.**
**Please message me directly to receive my contact number and confirm your attendance. Your spot is only reserved once you’ve confirmed with me personally. It wouldn’t feel right to hold a seat for someone who isn’t coming when there may be someone else who wants this far more.**
**The door is open — but only for the right people — and I genuinely hope that’s you. 🤍**
*************** **Out of respect for the openness and safety of this space — and based on feedback from our community — I’d also ask that you share your occupation when you message me to confirm. This session is a genuine, pressure-free conversation and to keep it that way, I’m unable to accommodate those working in sales, MLM, or similar fields. I hope you understand and appreciate that this boundary exists to protect the experience for everyone in the room. 🙏*************

Build Self-Confidence with Bouldering! 🧗 (🌟Beginner-Friendly ) + Dinner 🥘
✨ Connect with us over a day of fun climbs and an (optional) night of dinner + board games! ✨
🧗 What is bouldering?
Bouldering is a sub-discipline of rock climbing, that is done without a harness on a lower wall, with safety pads. It involves finding the right sequence to reach the end of a route, very much like a maze or puzzle.
The problem-solving, social nature of climbing has been shown to boost self-esteem and confidence, as well as reduce depression and anxiety levels. (read the relevant papers here)
What to expect 👀 (Note: the event officially starts at 3pm)
‼️ If you're new to climbing, we will run you through an introduction into bouldering.
🧘 3pm - 3:30pm: Warm up & 5 mins mindfulness (optional)
🧗 3:30pm - 7pm: Climb
🎲 7pm till late: We'll have dinner over card games or go to a board game cafe (see vibes that day)
What to bring?
Comfortable sports attire (long pants recommended!)
Climbing shoes + chalk (if you have)
Price list:
Passes usually range from 25 - 28 depending on the gym
Host's multipass are about 20
Rental shoes cost 5
📝 Things to note:
Please join our telegram chat before coming ([link](https://t.me/+jXJ0Ia_jVMg1ZDQ1))
We vote on the next gym to visit in our tele chat, so stay tuned for updates!
The group size is deliberately small to keep things cosy, so if you can't make it, please let us know ASAP.

• Show up and try it out.
• Complete application, etc. later.
Normal process
• Complete an online application (http://rmhc-centralohio.org/volunteer/).
• Attend orientation in advance.
• At orientation you will complete forms agreeing to keep family/patient info private and allowing a background check and tour the facility.
• Complete one training shift. Daily shifts are: morning 9 AM - 1 PM, afternoon 1 - 5 PM and evening 5 - 9 PM.

Psychic Development Series II - Pueo Group
Private Group. Closed to the Public
Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy.
In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected.
The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve.
I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
The Completely Series
These meetings will be a building block approach to learning photographic mastery over three disciplines:
Mechanical Mastery (MM) - 13 weeks of the series
Exposure Mastery (EM) - 26 weeks of the series
Composition Mastery (CM) - A 52 week series
All three series will run concurrently and will dovetail as follows:
Q3/26 - MM (Iter 1), EM (Iter 1, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt1)
Q4/26 - MM (Iter 2), EM (Iter 1, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt2)
Q1/27 - MM (Iter 3), EM (Iter 2, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt3)
Q2/27 - MM (Iter 4), EM (Iter 2, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt4)
That's likely confusing, but essentially, MM offered 4 times in that period, EM offered 2 times, and CM offered 1 time.
**TO BE CLEAR - THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THESE CLASSES.**
This is an aggressive series, with presentations, homework, group shoots to be added in, likely at LEAST twice a month, image critiques, and an expectation that you are willing to put in the work to elevate your photography significantly. Open to all levels and all equipment levels. Don't let hesitation about your skillset and/or gear keep you from a one-time opportunity.
The group will meet every Monday, with periodic exceptions, and we will try to keep as close as possible to the original plan. Obviously, more data to come, and will be published as this is further developed, but now is the time to decide if you want to be a part of this.
