Friendly Silent Reading Circle
Friendly Silent Reading Circle
Join us for a relaxed silent-reading session in a warm and welcoming café/bar. Bring your current read (or grab a new one!), settle in with a drink or snack, and enjoy an hour or two of calm, focused reading alongside fellow book lovers. 📖 No pressure, no agenda—just a peaceful moment to unwind, read, and maybe chat a little afterward. 😊 This group/event is an english-speaking one ( although the books don't have to be). We'll try to find a cozy and comfortable nook to settle into but we can't guarantee total silence. So if you are easily distracted by ambient noise, we recommend you bring a pair of noise canceling headphones 🎧😌 Spaces are limited to 8 people, so feel free to RSVP and make yourself at home with us!

Nous travaillerons sur un nombre de séances définies ⏰ 💻 (50min, 45min, 40min, 35min, 30min, 40min): Total = 4 heures; avec des petites pauses de 10min entre les séances Pendant les pauses, nous nous échangerons sur principaux défis de l'entrepreneuriat, les challenges de chacun, comment les surmonter, comment vendre plus, comment scaler son business, etc. À bientôt! \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Do you have an online business? A website ? A Shopify store? Products on Amazon? Or simply an idea, a project that you'd like to work on? Then come and join us for 4 hours of "Deep Work" at the coffee shop of the boat Annette K.

Keep in mind that we cannot be at our maximum efficiency for more than 3 or 4 hours a day! During the breaks, we will discuss the challenges of entrepreneurship, the challenges that each one of us is facing, how to overcome them, how to sell more, how to scale your business, etc. See you soon!

Scène ouverte & Atelier 3H d'improvisaion théâtrale Bastille 🎉✨
OSEZ l'improvisation théâtrale avec Malika Kissmell 👑 ! Scène ouverte & Atelier au Moxy Bastille Samedi 11 janvier de 15h à 18h (si vous avez du retard, merci de me prévenir et vous pouvez partir avant la fin, si besoin) 🎁⭐ Participation de 10€ (en espèces uniquement) + une conso pour le café qui nous reçoit. Improvisateurs tous niveaux Scène ouverte et atelier improvisation théâtrale pour tous 🎭🎤 ! Que vous soyez spectateurs ou improvisateurs débutants, confirmés ou entre les deux 😉 ou même si vous n'avez jamais participé ou vu de l'improvisation théâtrale, vous êtes au bon endroit pour passer un bon moment 👑. Vous pouvez participer avec les autres ou simplement assister au show 😁. Fous rires garantis ! Le principe de l'improvisation théâtrale est de faire place à notre imaginaire pour laisser sortir notre créateur intérieur ; celui qui sait créer et imaginer des histoires et des situations sans filtre. Si tu as envie de faire des choses que tu n'oses pas faire dans la vie, ou juste faire appel à ta créativité, sortir de ta zone de confort, cet événement est fait pour toi. Tu pourras également incarner différents personnages. 🎭🥷 Il s'agit de s'amuser tout en gagnant en aisance, en confiance en soi et en laissant sa rationalité et son cerveau au vestiaire. 🧞 Des clefs et des indications vous seront données pour réaliser des scènettes, des situations... après un échauffement ludique collectif (pour les personnes qui souhaitent participer 🙃). Si vous avez des questions, n'hésitez pas. Alors, à samedi à partir de 14h45 ✌️ La scène ouverte et atelier demandant une certaine préparation, merci d'éviter la désinscription de dernière minute.

1 - "Amok"" de S. Zweig ; 2 - "L'Insoutenable légèreté de l'être" de M. Kundera
1 - "Amok"" de S. Zweig ; 2 - "L'Insoutenable légèreté de l'être" de M. Kundera
Ce soir, dans le cadre du cycle général, nous avons voté : **1 - "L'insoutenable légèreté de l'être" de Milan Kundera** "...En effet, quelle qualité − de la gravité ou de la légèreté − correspond le mieux à la condition humaine ? Et où s'arrête le sérieux pour céder la place au frivole, et réciproquement ? Avec son art du paradoxe, Kundera pose ces questions à travers un texte composé à partir de quelques données simples mais qui s'enrichissent constamment de nouvelles nuances, dans un jeu de variations où s'unissent récit, rêve et réflexion, prose et poésie, histoire récente et ancienne..." Babelio **2 - "Amok" de Stefan Zweig** "...L'amok, en Malaisie, est celui qui, prix de frénésie sanguinaire, court devant lui, détruisant hommes et choses, sans qu'on puisse rien faire pour le sauver. Le narrateur rencontre sur un paquebot un malheureux en proie à cette forme mystérieuse de démence. Histoire encore d'une folie, d'une passion..." Babelio ***On peut lire l'un ou les deux livres programmés.*** **Pour les présentations d'auteurs :** -Aurélia va nous faire une présentation de Milan Kundera pour donner du contexte à nos discussions ; \- Je fais une présentation de Stefan Zweig pendant une dizaine de minutes\. **Pour les focus sur l'oeuvre :** \- Mikael fait le focus sur l'oeuvre de "Amok" ; \- Thomas fair celui de "L'insoutenable de l'être"\. Et n'oubliez pas ! Partagez, si sous le souhaitez, quelques mots, passages et/ou citations qui vous ont marqués, touchés, et qui vous semblent importants à partager avec le groupe et les participants. Enfin, inscrivez-vous, je vous prie, uniquement si vous êtes sûrs d'être de la partie. Bien à vous tous, bonnes lectures, et à bientôt ! Jélila PS : la participation pour des raisons de frais liés à Meetup (240 euros par an) est de 2 euros par personne et par an. Mais elle reste facultative !

Oscar Watch International: NO OTHER CHOICE at the Gateway Film Center + TAKOREA!
Oscar Watch International: NO OTHER CHOICE at the Gateway Film Center + TAKOREA!
Join us as we get together to see the winner of the Best International Film at TIFF and a triple Golden Globe nominee: NO OTHER CHOICE! This top-reviewed dark comedy satirical thriller follows a man devises a unique plan to secure a new job: eliminate his competition. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a desperate paper industry expert who decides to kill off his competition to be assured of the job he seeks to maintain his way of life. The film is co-written / produced / directed by Park Chan-wook and is based on The Ax by Donald Westlake. It stars Lee Byung-hun, Son Ye-jin, Park Hee-soon, Lee Sung-min, Yeom Hye-ran, and Cha Seung-won. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcz-RXMCyco BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews as the Venice International Film Festival and later at the Toronto Film Festival where it won the International People’s Choice Award! It just received 3 Golden Globe nominations for Best Picture (Musical or Comedy), Best Foreign Language Film and Best Actor for Lee Byung-hun. It was also selected as the South Korean entry (and likely nominee) for Best International Film at this year’s Academy Awards! MOVIE PLAN: Please purchase your ticket for the 2:00pm 4K showing and meet in the upstairs lobby area between 1:35 and 1:45pm! Tickets $11.25 via the GFC website and includes online ticketing fee. Advance purchase is advised. Once you have yours please list your seat number in the Comments below. DINNER PLAN: The new burger place isn’t open yet but we’ll still try someplace new! And someplace where the cuisine matches the film! Join us immediately following the movie at nearby TAKOREA, located just downstairs and next to the theater! We’ll try to grab the trio of tables just inside the door, which should work perfectly for our group! MENU: From small plates to tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and bowls, they have a wildly inventive menu that offers a “Korean-Mexican fusion concept” that serves “delicious food that everyone can enjoy!” Popular entrees include tacos, nachos and burritos made with Bulgogi beef, pork carnitas, Korean fried chicken, and even BBQ Tofu, along with traditional sides, chips and a variety of dips. For the vegans in the group, the BBQ Tofu Burrito is listed as “vegan friendly” and that combo of ingredients can be used in just about any entrée! And, if you’re not into Korean food, they have several straight-Mexican options as well! You can check out their menu here: https://www.takoreacbus.com/menu 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!

Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance". Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
