A novel by N.H. Kleinbaum Based on the motion picture written by Tom Schulman.
Mr. Keating, the great teacher!
There are many good teachers in the world. I have a memory about a good teacher like Keating. It is very important to meet a good teacher in childhood. I think so. John Keating teaches his Welton junior to make them live their own extraordinary life. His philosophy is based on ‘carpe diem’. - It means 'seize the day!' - Robin Williams acts John Keating. His acting was very inspiring. Keating teach English to student as well as to find own paths in a strict society where your path has already been selected. He was a man truly love his students.
If you want to meet Mr. Keating, say “O Captain! My Captain!”. =)
Film vs Novel
In frankly speaking, the novel was boring. I recommend to see a movie first, before you read this book.
Film : ★★★★☆
Novel : ★★★☆☆

The Wizard of Oz - L. Frank Baum :: 2006/10/08 17:53
It’s a great joy to read a classic novel because there are beautiful stories. =) 'The Wizard of Oz' was written by L. Frank Baum in 1900. (Wow 106 years ago!) Baum also wrote another thirteen books about Oz. Oz is the wonderful land with magic and fantasy. There are Wizard, wicked Witch, Munchkins, wild beasts, winged monkeys, Winkies in the Oz. It is one of the best-known stories in American popular culture and has been widely translated. (also Korean)
I have a little memory about the TV animation 'The wizard of Oz' in my childhood. In my memory, characters of TV animation series are so cute and they show the good friendship. But I have no idea about the end of the story. I wonder what happened to Dorothy and her friends at the last. I could find full stories of 'Wizard of the Oz' in this book.
I recommend this book to everyone who want to bring back their memories about Dorothy and her friends. This book has wonderful stories with profusely illustrated. That's so goooooood!
ps : You can download e-book here.http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/55 It's all free.

♪ Over the rainbow ♬ (Click the play button below, song by Aselin Debison)
| Somewhere, over the rainbow Way up high There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Somewhere, over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true Some day I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far behind me | Where troubles melt like lemon drops away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me Somewhere, over the rainbow Blue birds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow Why then, oh, why can't I? (x2) If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh, why can't I? |

Unresolved External... :: 2006/06/09 20:16
Unresolved External...
It is a problem in a porting process of WebTide , a web application server which implemented J2EE specification, on HP-UX platform and it always print 'Unresolved External' on my terminal window in despite of my intensive effort. I'm really struggling with this issue with no clue of how to narrow down that whether the issue is in my environment, my build process or third-party's softwares...
I'm getting nervous. Because I must resolve this problem in limited time (3 days left).
I want to solve this problem!
I can do it. I believe ..

Dear Buddhist monk Tom.
Merry Christmas!
How about becoming a Santa Claus this Christmas?
If this real happens, people will be impressed by this harmonic and pluralistic event.
First of all, Christmas is a holy day and it stands for belief, hope, and love. It is a paradigm of beyond human race and over any ethos. Belief, hope and love are fundamental factors in human life. Difference in religious belief cannot hinder this great paradigm.
Second of all, people will welcome this harmonic event.
It means Buddhist Santa Claus will open up the minds of two difference religions believers. The barrier may disappear from this event.
However, some people don't think that way. Because each religion has its own belief system. How can this be ignored?
But a religion seems to be a great philosophy leads human life.
If you broaden perspective, there is no difference in fundamental spirits.
Therefore, I hope to see a Buddhist Santa Claus every Christmas. It will provide a chance to understand each religion and feel each religion’s generosity.
Sincerely,
Sung-Shik.

Caution! Computer viruses are targeting your PC! :: 2004/10/04 09:59
Be cautious!
My office desktop computer has been infected by computer viruses and crashed last Friday.Who would not be frustrated with such programs like this?
The first indication of the infection is its slowness.
Most users do not think of it as oriented infection.
However, the PCs will only get slower with more errors.I thought the same way, too.
I had never imagined that my PC would be infected by a virus, but it was only a helpless wish of mine.I really regret that I had not been running anti-virus programs.
After all, I decided to reinstall the entire programs again.
It is going to take up a lot of time; at a boring thing to do! There is a famous Danish proverb, “Advice after mischief is like medicine after death.”
I truly believe that now.

The great father of classical music, J.S Bach. :: 2004/09/14 09:58
The great father of classical music, J.S Bach.
Do you know J.S Bach? I think that you know about him already.
Johan Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750) was born in Deutschland in 1685. He had already showed splendd musical ability when he was young children. He was born into a musical family for many generations. It shows that his musical skill was not an accident.
However, his childhood vannot be described as being fortunate.He lost his parent when he was only 10 years old. It must be a traumatic experience.
From that time on he started cultivating his violin and organ skills in vicious circle of poverty. He was never frustrated and was able to overcome obstacles through his passion in music.
As a result, Bach could hand down a lot of masterpieces of classical music.
For instance, 'Brandenburg Concerto','Air (Aria on G string)','Goldberg Variations','Toccata in D minor',
'Rejouissance','The Art of The Fugue','St.Matthew Passion' and 'A Musical Offering' are a few of his best pieces.
He had also accomplished 'Polyphony' and 'Counterpoint'. (It is a composing theory.)
No doubt, J.S Bach was the great father of classical music.

My favorite Rock Musician - Queen :: 2004/09/06 09:56
My favorite Rock Musician - Queen
I like Queen.
This rock band is a world famous group.
This rock band has many hit songs.
“We will rock you”, “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “We are the champions”, “love of my life” and “Crazy little things called love” are the songs that everyone must have heard at least once in his or her life.
I think Queen was a frontier of rock music.
They are the ones that opened a new genre called ‘opera rock.’
It is rock music in opera form.
For instance, something like that speech, story, scene, musical variation.I think “Bohemian Rhapsody” is a good example of opera rock genre. Its lyric is also very impressive, and even Freddie Mercury’s vocal is magnificent.
I really love his voice. Heaven sent the voice.
Sadly, he died in 1993, and I miss him very much.
