Hi All,
Can we catch up once every month? How about the 2nd saturday of every month?

Let us all suggest the time at place.Hopefully we should reach a consensus :-)

Prashant

Sounds good to me.
Maybe we can discuss this with the others after we get our certificates on saturday.

Notice to All.

Officially the eggheads batch is over at SCAC.
We are having out first post class get-together on 2nd June 2012.
The time and venue is yet to be decided, we have shortlisted Habitat Center & CP as the two possibilities. 
Those who have the time to attend, please RSVP and we can coordinate.
The time is not fixed yet, so if you have to work in the evening or morning or have some other plans let us know and we shall definitely try to work things so that we can achieve maximum attendance with minimum drama.

Oh, and before I forget. There is an entry fee to these meetings. Every person who wishes to attend must bring a piece of writing, we will read it out and discuss errors, possibilities and many more things like we did in class.

Thank you.

Please sign up and let us know when would be a good time.

See you soon.

Good Luck

Regards

Ankit

Dear Friends,
 
This is a very innovative move pregnant with numerous possibilities of polishing your work. And also motivating you to do more and do it frequently.
 
I sincerely hope this works.
 
If I want to come, will I have to also get some writing?
 
Ramesh

What do you all think about adding themes to the writings that we have to bring to the meeting?
I think it would be a little more fun and structured, would be nice how we all come up with different interpretations to the same thing.

What say?

Lol, lasagne was so long ago Prashant.
I meant something which would leave a lot open for interpretation. So all stories would be along similar lines, yet be different. Like the 5 words Abha gave us, same words yet our stories were all different.

We shud rather read out the stories we submitted for the contest. They could be a good start...

That could be done but that would be just 5 people what about those who didn't participate?

Plus reading 1500 words can be a little longer than reading those 500 words in class.

Those who did not participate in the contest, can write and come to your meet. Atleast then they would get their minds to tick.

Hey All,

I was wondering would it be possible to move the meeting to a Sunday
brunch instead of a Saturday Lunch?
Like instead of 2nd June make it 3rd?

The actual peaceful ones are expensive like Spirit
Else there are the fast food joints which r super noise
Aside from the ccd at every 100 feet (each of which is crowded and loud) there r costa and lavazza
Oh and a recently opened dunkin donuts too

See, that's my point. They're all so noisy. You can barely hear your own thoughts at ccd. I guess the costa or lavazza might work.
