Karapu Lit: Rōpū Aroha Pukapuka o Gainesville
Gainesville, Florida
HE MAIA te māia ki te whakaatu i a koe anō ki te ao ipurangi e rapu ana i ngā tāngata tauhou he rite ō rātou hiahia ki a koe. Koinei te tīmatanga o tēnei karapu pukapuka tino angitu. Kotahi te tangata i whakamātau i tētahi mea...ā, ka whiwhi i te taonga nui!
I mua i tā tātou tīmatanga, he aha te āhua o...te hōiho?
Āe. He maha ngā kaupapa hapori ka whakahaerehia e mātou; ko tēnei he āwhina i tētahi pāmu whakaora hōiho.
Kua whakaritea hoki e mātou he kohi kai, he taonga tākaro, me ngā taputapu kura. Ko ētahi o mātou e mahi tūao ana hei kaiako pānui i te whare pukapuka o tō mātou rohe.
Āe! Āe, me kōrero tātou mō te tīmatanga o te Rōpū Aroha Pukapuka.
Kāore i kitea e Alexandra, te kaiwhakaū o te rōpū, tētahi karapu pukapuka ā-rohe i Gainesville. I tirotiro haere ia engari kāore i angitu; ahakoa ōna hoa ehara i te hunga pānui pukapuka nui.
Nā reira i tahuri ai ia ki Ko te meetup.com, i reira i whakatūria ai e ia tētahi rōpū...ā, e whitu ngā tāngata i whakautu mai!
E ai ki a Alexandra, e kore rawa ia e wareware i tā rāua hui tuatahi—i tētahi whare pīta o te rohe—ki te matapaki me pēhea te whiriwhiri pukapuka...me ēhea pukapuka ka tīmata tā rāua pānui. He tino ngahau taua hui tuatahi, ā, i whakau te rōpū.
E hia ngā mema inaianei?
Kua eke mātou ki te 140, engari 13-15 ngā mema e tae mai ana ki tētahi hui...ahakoa neke atu i te 25-30 e tae mai ana ki ā mātou huihuinga motuhake.
He aha ngā momo huihuinga?
Ngā haerenga mara—pērā i te pikiniki o te kōanga, te whakaaturanga pukapuka tawhito, te hoko pukapuka whare pukapuka, te hainatanga a ngā kaituhi, ngā kiriata me ngā whakaari e pā ana ki te pukapuka. I tū anō hoki tā mātou pāti huritau tuatahi me te pāti Kirihimete. He mea tonu kei te haere.
He pono tēnā! Ka kitea e koe he wā ki te pānui pukapuka?
Hā-hā...āe, e hiahia ana mātou. Anei ngā pukapuka mō tō mātou tau tuatahi:
Kāreti Karāhe
Te Tamahine a te Heretika
Owl Taone
Pō Circus
claire de marama
Tahae Pukapuka
Heni Gerhardt
Gone Girl
Murihiku
Stiff: Ngā Oranga Whakamiharo o ngā Tupāpaku
P: He Pukapuka
Ture Tuatahi o te Kauhoe
He rārangi pai rawa atu! He kōrero tino pai?
e rua Murihiku a Q i whakaputa kōrero pai rawa atu, ā, i kōrero katoa mātou! Nā te mea Murihiku he kaupapa tautohenga rawa, ā, i tino whakaohooho i ētahi whakaaro hōhonu. Me Q, i miharo mātou ki te ariā o te haere i te wā, me pēhea, mehemea kei a mātou te kōwhiringa, e pā ai ki te hapori.
Kei hea koutou e tū ai ā koutou hui o ia rā?
I tō mātou whare pukapuka ā-rohe, te Peka Millhopper o te Pūnaha Whare Pukapuka o Alachua County i Gainesville. Ka tūtaki mātou i te Rāhoroi tuatahi o te marama mō ngā kōrero pukapuka.
Engari ka tūtaki anō mātou ki tētahi wharekai—i te Rāhoroi tuatoru o te marama. Ka kiia ēnei ko ā mātou hui "Cup of Joe", ina pōti mātou i ngā pukapuka mō ngā marama e rua, e whai ake nei rānei. Ka taea e te tangata te haere mai ki te pōti, engari ka whakamahia anō hoki e mātou te wā hei manaaki i ngā mema hou me te whakawhiti pukapuka.
Nā, me pēhea te whiriwhiri i ō pukapuka?
Kei a mātou he rārangi whakaaro e tukuna ana e ngā mema mā te īmēra. Mai i reira, ka whiriwhiria e Alexandra me ngā āpiha o te karapu kia toru ngā taitara. Ka whakaatuhia ngā whiringa i ā mātou huihuinga Cup of Joe o ia marama (te Rāhoroi tuatoru o te marama).
He tauira tāne, wahine rānei tō rōpū. He pānga tēnei ki ō whiringa karapu pukapuka?
He pono rawa. Ko tā mātou ture anake, me āta whakarongo ngā ira tangata ki ngā pukapuka. Ā, kia kore ai e whara te ngākau o tetahi, ka hunaia e mātou ngā whakaaro katoa, tae atu ki te whiringa toa.
He rōpū hihiri rawa atu tāu i whakatū ai! He aha tāu e hiahia ana ki te waiho mai mā mātou?
He whakaute noa iho tēnei ki ngā whakaaro me ngā rerekētanga o ngā whakaaro o tētahi ki tētahi. He nui tō mātou hihiri, ā, e hiahia ana mātou kia pai te mahi a ō mātou mema i tā rātou e pai ai—pānuihia!
Kei te tuwhera te mema. Ko tā mātou whāinga he tūtaki ki ngā tāngata hou, he whakatairanga i te pānui me te tuhituhi, me te āwhina i tō mātou hapori i ngā huarahi katoa e taea ana e mātou. He mea tonu hei mahi... ā, he mea kei te haere tonu!
