Hey everyone! Let's be real—navigating your 20s and stepping into the "real world" can feel like a massive shift. And nobody gave us a manual for it.
From handling office politics and tight deadlines to managing your own finances and dealing with that classic 9-to-5 burnout, we’re all pretty much figuring it out as we go.
That’s exactly why BYX Café is here. Think of it as your post-work sanctuary—a warm, cozy space to slow down, disconnect from the screen, and chat about the practical, real-life skills we actually need to survive adulthood. Drop in anytime, grab a drink, unwind after a long day, and have honest conversations with a community that completely gets the hustle.
Come for the insights, stay for the crew—or just come and chill.
No fees. No pressure. No corporate networking vibes.
When: Thursdays & Fridays (Weeks 1 & 3 of the month)
Kickoff: Thursday, 16 July 2026
Time: 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM
Where: BUBS Lower Ground Floor Library
What’s happening?
Thursdays | Life & Adulting: Honest chats on career growth, personal finance, and navigating everyday life.
Fridays | Activities & Fellowship: Games, crafts, sharing, or just winding down after a long work week.
Bring a colleague, drag a friend along, or just come as you are. Let’s figure this adulting thing out—together.
For any inquiries, please contact Bro Weng via WhatsApp at 017-8787118 or email weng@bubs.my

She went forth into the homeless life with Ayya Phalanani in 2019 in Germany, and received Upasampada (higher ordination) from the Most Venerable Ayya Tathaloka Mahatheri in California, USA, in 2021. Venerable currently resides in Thailand and spends most of her time in monasteries of the Thai Forest Tradition. The lifestyle of a forest monastic resonates with her, as it represents the “original way of life” recommended by the Buddha for one who has gone forth.
