Rainy days

Winter is here in Cape Town, and it is freezing cold. Surprised? Yes, it gets cold, even in Africa. It's been raining the past few days, and according to my weekly weather forecast, it'll be raining nearly every day for the next few days. That's okay though. This is my heaviest "work" week, and the rain keeps me in and focused. I'm incredibly sleepy though, like all the time. I get more sleep here than I do at Stanford, AND i only have one class a day, not including my hours at GAPA, but why am I always so schleeeeepy.

Anyway, I wanted to share with you a video I made for GAPA yesterday. It was going to be a photovoice project, but coincidentally, Althea had been wanting to do a video slideshow-type thingy for a while. Sorry if the quality is not that good. I was experiencing technical difficulties...I wish I could share with you the story behind this video slideshow AND the stories behind the different pictures!...Eventually, I will explain, at one point, in some form or another...

AND I want to share you one of my new favorite quotes
"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
