It's Raining, It's Pouring...

The last few days have marked the start of Korea’s Monsoon Season and by God, they weren’t joking when they said the rain was coming! It literally has not stopped! And it comes down so heavily.  It’s awful.  After getting off the bus in the morning (I’m already soaked before getting on the bus due to the short walk to the bus stop) I have a fifteen minute walk to school and in this weather, it’s just a nightmare. 

Rainy Sinjeong!

Because it’s so warm I can’t wear a jacket meaning that I’m absolutely drenched by the time I get to school even with my umbrella.  Then it takes ages to dry off.  Argh!

I forgot how miserable the rain makes me.  Looking out of the window to what looks like the end of the world and the constant feeling of being damp all day is not a great combination for happiness. 

To make matters worse, I really want to buy some wellies because I have no appropriate footwear but then I remember I live in Korea and here my size 7 feet are seen as freakishly abnormal clown feet and I can’t get shoes anywhere! Not good.

I don’t think I’ll ever complain about rainy Manchester ever again now after this!
