I've decided that "Creature from the Black Lagoon" is the best description of what I look like today. Apparently, I am allergic to something. I'm not sure what it is that has set me off, but my eyes are horribly swollen today, my nose is red, and my sinuses are dreadful. Cate thinks it might be some of the pollen from the trees, which is of a different variety than what I'm used to in the USA. I think she may be right.
Aside from looking and feeling lousy, I'm actually having a pretty good week. The kids have been really good for the past two days, and the weather has been perfect (sunny and cool). One of my kindergartners gave me a random present today: a card she had made that said "I love you" in Hangeul and a bag of candy. It was such a sweet thing for her to do!
Gyeongju has gotten even prettier this week, now that hundreds and hundreds of red roses are in bloom. When I'm riding past all the flowers on my bike, the smell is so alluring it makes me want to just stop and breathe it all in for an hour or so.
