Living in the bay area, the weather was mostly gloomy for elongated parts of the year, so this umbrella became my best friend. I remember it has these holes in the middle that would catch the wind in a certain way so the wind wouldn't knock over the umbrella. I think also having a rainbow umbrella was sort of an interesting social experiment. I always had people stare at me a little different, goes to show how symbolism is etched into our daily lives.
This was my junior year of college so I was spending all of my time at the art department, but sometimes I would go off somewhere on campus to just take a break and enjoy the little amount of sun we did get. I always had these big headphones with me every single day, I was sort of an introvert at this time so listening to music constantly when I wasn't in class was sort of my escape or wall I put up.
