DC Mixed-Asian Meetup #2: Rainproof Edition

Today at 1pm · Arlington

Follow @mixedasiasummer on IG for more events: www.instagram.com/mixedasiasummer/ 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗲𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲: We got soaked in the rain last time, ☔ 🌊 so let’s try this again! If you didn't thug it out in the rain, you don't have an excuse not to pull up! And don’t complain that I’m copying the description from last time, I’m not lazy, I’m just recycling ♻️ 🚨 𝗗𝗖/𝗩𝗔/𝗠𝗗 𝗺𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗱-𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 / 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 / 𝗯𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 / 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀… this is your FINAL WARNING. 👀 👀 Additional warnings may be issued. 🚨 We’re meeting at Bluemont Park for a picnic because apparently someone said “we should hang out” and now we all have to face the consequences in real life 🙄 𝗪𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱, but we might want to sit on the grass if there’s no rain so it feels more picnic-y. Bring a blanket 🧺 or don’t (you will regret it when you’re sitting on grass suboptimally rethinking life choices), and an umbrella ☂️ in case. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝘂𝗰𝗸! Bring food that feels culturally connected to you 🍜🍚, or don’t and just stand there holding chips like “this represents my ancestral lineage”. 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗯𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴! 🎶 Laufey, Wasia Project, and other songs that induce staring into the distance like you’re in a coming-of-age movie you didn’t audition for. If you have an instrument, 🎸🎻 this is your moment. If you don’t, your voice counts unfortunately. 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (don’t give me the excuse that you were late because I didn’t tell you where to meet 😠) • Bluemont Park Picnic Pavilion 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮 (𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗻𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲): • meet new people (participation may result in unintended friendship acquisition) • picnic era 🌸 • someone says “wait we should do this monthly”, but then doesn’t offer to help me out 🙄 • group pics 📸 (mandatory documentation of social bonding) • spontaneous jam session that starts normal and becomes emotionally intense for no reason • games (volleyball, frisbee, and whatever object becomes a “game” when thrown incorrectly) • good vibes only (existentialism is acceptable if it’s in a cute way) ✨ Everyone is welcome, you do NOT have to be mixed to come! 🤗 If you read this far, you are legally obligated to consider coming. I better see you there… or else (this is a joke, but also I WILL notice).

DC Mixed-Asian Meetup #2: Rainproof Edition

Today at 1pm · Arlington

Follow @mixedasiasummer on IG for more events: www.instagram.com/mixedasiasummer/ 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗲𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲: We got soaked in the rain last time, ☔ 🌊 so let’s try this again! If you didn't thug it out in the rain, you don't have an excuse not to pull up! And don’t complain that I’m copying the description from last time, I’m not lazy, I’m just recycling ♻️ 🚨 𝗗𝗖/𝗩𝗔/𝗠𝗗 𝗺𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗱-𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 / 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 / 𝗯𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 / 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀… this is your FINAL WARNING. 👀 👀 Additional warnings may be issued. 🚨 We’re meeting at Bluemont Park for a picnic because apparently someone said “we should hang out” and now we all have to face the consequences in real life 🙄 𝗪𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱, but we might want to sit on the grass if there’s no rain so it feels more picnic-y. Bring a blanket 🧺 or don’t (you will regret it when you’re sitting on grass suboptimally rethinking life choices), and an umbrella ☂️ in case. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝘂𝗰𝗸! Bring food that feels culturally connected to you 🍜🍚, or don’t and just stand there holding chips like “this represents my ancestral lineage”. 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗯𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴! 🎶 Laufey, Wasia Project, and other songs that induce staring into the distance like you’re in a coming-of-age movie you didn’t audition for. If you have an instrument, 🎸🎻 this is your moment. If you don’t, your voice counts unfortunately. 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (don’t give me the excuse that you were late because I didn’t tell you where to meet 😠) • Bluemont Park Picnic Pavilion 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮 (𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗻𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲): • meet new people (participation may result in unintended friendship acquisition) • picnic era 🌸 • someone says “wait we should do this monthly”, but then doesn’t offer to help me out 🙄 • group pics 📸 (mandatory documentation of social bonding) • spontaneous jam session that starts normal and becomes emotionally intense for no reason • games (volleyball, frisbee, and whatever object becomes a “game” when thrown incorrectly) • good vibes only (existentialism is acceptable if it’s in a cute way) ✨ Everyone is welcome, you do NOT have to be mixed to come! 🤗 If you read this far, you are legally obligated to consider coming. I better see you there… or else (this is a joke, but also I WILL notice).

Album Club

Thu, Aug 27 at 7pm · Washington

THE IDEA: Like a book club, we'll individually listen to an album over the course of the month. I'll send out suggested reading and interviews to round out the context of the lyrics and sound. We'll discuss the album top to bottom, share our opinions, eat food, and then vote on the next month's album. Sound good?
