Hiya!
Hope all of you are doing well in your exams! I wish you the best of luck.
The meetings have been going great lately. We have progressed a lot, and new ideas are being suggested onto how to improve and become more active.
A new project is being worked on by the members which needs your help and contribution, and I am hoping for something big out of it. I will tell you all about it this Friday.
It has been decided that on Tuesdays we will be discussing plans, strategies and work, and Fridays will be left for discussions and sharing experiences.
This Friday is a very important meeting, and I would like to ask you all to attend. I know some of you are busy, and some have exams, I truly understand, but it's very important you attend because we will be having a workshop on Gender. And I urge you all to cancel all plans, delay some of your studies and come for the meeting, at least to attend the workshop then you are free to leave.
Guys, we are growing, and so far giving a very good image, and walking in steady footsteps. I congratulate you all for the success, and would like to express how proud I am of each and every one of you.
Friday's meeting will start at 6:00 pm and will end at 10:00pm.
You are free to come before or stay after the meeting, but NOT during.
The workshop will begin at 7:00 for those who have limited time.
I love you all

4th of June- Meeting 8
Heyo!
Thank you all for coming today, it's always a pleasure having new people joining our discussion.
First, I would like to apologize for the loss of control and weakness of organization in today's meeting due to different reasons. Personally, I think it wasn't our best, but yet again, our goal is one, and our goal is being achieved: people are coming, and people are talking. We continued talking about Gay romance, and relationships, and people shared experiences, some were extremely personal.
One of the most positive feedbacks I got after today's meeting was that it was the first time people in groups actually talked about such personal experiences knowing they will not be judged, which makes it very comforting.
With that being said by a new member, I believe we are achieving what we're aspiring for.
The meeting started off late, 6:45 and lasted till 10:30!
Anyone who can't stay that long is always excused to leave of course. But I believe it was such a success to have a group of people talk non stop for 4 hours, without even getting bored! So congrats everyone, you truly are an example for tolerance and acceptance and maturity, and I thank you for that.
The group is expanding, and people constantly are eager to join us, and this is why a decision was made, that we have two separate meetings every week. Tuesdays and Fridays. Anyone is welcome to any or both meetings.
A rotation for moderating the group is being applied, every time a different person will be leading the discussion.
Due to lateness hindering us, it has been decided that anyone who's 15 minutes late without having notified of his lateness, will not be admitted in the discussion room, and that decision is effective beginning next week. So leave your houses taking into consideration traffic, and anything that might stop you from coming on time. It's very important we keep this in minds.
Next meeting will take place on Tuesday 8th of June at 5:30. Same place. Don't be late!
Love you all… really.

28th of May- Meeting 7
Dear fellas,
The meetings are going great so far. A lot of new people are coming, whom we welcome dearly, and hope will be with us regularly. Some of our older members have not been attending because of their finals, with which we wish them the best of luck… we miss you guys, yalla finish up so you can rejoin us
I've been hearing comments here and there about our meetings, and all of them are positive. But I don't think you guys need to hear that, because I'm pretty sure you all feel the positive energy flowing between us. What we are having is good discussion, a lot of listening, a lot of talking and most of all, a lot of respect, for which I thank you all.
Last time, Friday the 28th of May, we talked about gay romance, dating/relationships. 10 new members joined us, most of which will be attending next time, and hopefully the times to come. The meeting lasted for 3 hours and a half! Can you imagine a group of people sitting for that long, and not one of them budging or complaining? That's a sign my friends =)
Anyhoo… we talked about organizing a trip, keep it mind, we have to do it once everyone is done with their finals, remind me next time to talk about it, and start actually planning it, and try to come up with places to go, or things to do.
We also talked about having a Leadership workshop, for those who might be interested in leading the discussions, it's nice to have different people doing that, I'm sure you're all bored from that one person specifically giving you looks and directing the conversations =p anyone who might be interested please contact me, don't be shy, the aim of the workshop is to get you more confident.
Sorry this update is a bit long, but I thought I would put you all in the picture where we're going, and how we're doing.
I miss y'all already
Cheers.
