Rebecca Gannaway's Interests

General

So you might want to learn something for free. I think education should be free. Let's discuss Botany! Other topics: psychology, Japanese language, first aid.

via GIPHY

Music

This is a list of artists I want to mention in case I ever die and you want to remember me by listening to them: Ivy Distortion. Shonen Knife. Wax Tailor. Muse. Bonobo. Khruangbin. Ethnic music. Coldplay. David Bowie. ABBA. The Beatles. Billy Idol. Groove Armada. Eminem. The Spice Girls. Venga Boys. Snow Patrol. Garth Stevenson. The Black-Eyed Peas. Madonna. Titanic Sinclair. Poppy. Massive Attack. Gorillaz. Chemical Brothers. Electric Six. Aphex Twin. AltJ. Sure Boy. Rhomboid. Fat Freddie's Drop. Missy Elliot. Boy Least Likely To. Ambient music. I prefer music that is uplifting.

Movies

The Grand Budapest Hotel. The following films are attached to fond memories of family and friends: Amelie. Joe Dirt. Spirited Away. Homeward Bound (favourite childhood film). Monster's Inc. Up. Red Panda. Mrs Doubtfire. Movies in which Nicholas Cage loses his sh#t... "Pig" is an amazing Cage film. Rocky Horror Picture Show. Forrest Gump. June Again. Educating Rita. Billy Elliot. Donnie Darko. Big Fish. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Jumanji. My Dog Skip (too sad, mind you). Home Alone. Little Miss Sunshine. Legally Blonde. Easy A. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Television

Brooklyn Nine Nine. I relate most strongly to Rosa. Letterkenny House Of The Dragon David Attenborough Productions Anything BBC or HBO. Channel 4 UK. Television Series I enjoyed: House MD (even though it wasn't medically accurate) This Is Going To Hurt. The Rookie. Hanna. Russian Doll. The Wheel Of Time. Rick and Morty. Danger Five. (Ridiculous Australian comedy) Flea Bag. Doc Martin. Jimmy Carr comedy shows. Joe Lycett comedy shows. Bill Bailey comedy shows. Anything with Stephen Fry in it. Six Feet Under. Game of Thrones. Orange Is The New Black. The Good Place (season 1 only, the rest were lame). Peace Maker (I love Eagly). SpaceForce. The IT Crowd. BlackBooks. BlackAdder. Scrubs. (Gordon)Ramsay's Kitchen Nitemares. Death To 2020. Mandy (Diane Morgan). Midsomer Murders (I watched with my dad and now with my best friend)

Books

I have spent my adulthood reading gardening and plant encyclopedias, psychology and Japanese language textbooks and have completed many online courses in dementia studies and plant studies. Pragmatic Magical Thinking by Ari Freeman. Recently I have been studying the loading code and other health and safety requirements for operating forklifts and trucks. When I was a kid, I read the chronicles of Narnia, Enid Blyton books, Heidi, Harry Potter, His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman, LOTR, Goosebumps books, and much more than I can remember. I even have a textbook on Embalming somewhere...

Heroes

Nurses, Doctors, Virologists, Meteorologists, Botanists, Mechanics, Chiropractors, Taylors, Baristas, Physiotherapists, Massage Therapists, Civil Defence workers Jane Goodall, another keen observer of life on earth. My parents, who work tirelessly to be better people and always try to help. My best friend, who has the most astounding architectural designs in Minecraft. The City Council Rangers and ecological preservation groups.

Rebecca Gannaway's Blurbs

About me:

I am always studying botany. I have a psychology and Japanese language degree (Bachelor of Arts, University of Canterbury) (JLPT N3 proficiency) with certificates in relaxation massage and TEFL. I took a while to decide what I wanted to do with my life as I have various interests. My disciplines include amenity gardening, video editing and music production, nutrition and fitness, dementia care, and community support services. I can drive trucks, forklifts and enjoy operating excavators and graders. I can play violin, keys,and guitar but not professionally. I have lived in New Zealand and Japan.

Who I'd like to meet:

collaborators and young professionals, people who are authentic (if there's such a thing), students, teachers, youth who need advice but can't get it from home, botanists

I like your vibes :)
Yes, I am pretty happy with it, although it will be hard work and I will be exhausted every day, I can go to bed knowing that I truly made a difference :)

thank you! =) I have been listening to your music this morning. It's super relaxing!

by Vegan Prepper; ; Report

i couldn't agree with you anymore! I love teaching kids so much and even though my job doesn't provide basic things like health insurance and I have to make astronomical payments on student loan debt it feels good to be making a beneficial difference in the world :)

namaste :) xox

Thank you.

I have spent a solid month crafting it when I have time.

I love what you're doing with yours very much as well!
If you want any code to add your own unique elements, I am more than willing to share mine with you.

by Rebecca Gannaway; ; Report

That would be amazing, I used to be good at coding, but it's hard since I don't have a lot of free time. Between working and going to school sometimes my brain hurts. I'd love to have any tips you are willing to share would be amazing and I would appreciate it very much.

Thank you very much!^_^
I recently watched Stardust and loved it.
I also recommend the Australian film "Tracks" which I enjoyed very much.
The soundtrack was written and performed by one of my favourite musicians, Garth Stevenson.
You can find him on Spotify.

Kia Ora, Neeks!
Thanks so much!
I put a lot of time over the week into crafting it.
I had to learn how to code!
I think having learnt Japanese language really helped me to understand how it works.
It is a language after all. Language of computers :)

by Rebecca Gannaway; ; Report

you did this urself?! woahhh im impressed + learning japanese is so hard.. i tried last year for school and i've kind of given up lol

by neeks; ; Report

Any language requires a template of words and then a substitution of words unique to a situation, so if you see someone else's layout, you look at their code and then substitute content into it. My layout is a combination of others works plus some elements that I discovered myself. I think I needed to combine the works of three people and I then embedded my youtube channel content into it.
