No Rain, Yeah Right!

Everyday around two o'clock our campus at SWA is assaulted by a deluge of water from the sky. Last week, it was more intense than usual. This is a short clip about my journey from one side of the campus to the other. I love rain like this. Reminds me the planet is alive and powerful.



What do you think about the rain? How does it make you feel?

This is a short clip of some skits we worked on in class.
