Children's Day in Korea

I'd like to start out by first mentioning that I only have 100 days until my return to America. Should I count down or would that annoy people too much? Perhaps I'll put a countdown on the side of my blog page. 

Today is Children's Day in South Korea. Fortunately, that means it is a national holiday. Schools, banks, and government offices are closed. Next Tuesday, Buddha's Birthday, is also a national holiday. Ironically, we don't have tomorrow or Monday off of school. Most schools across the country are off for 6 days in a row. My principal, however, decided differently. Oh joy...
