I'm mentally busy nowadays. I have the plans like that studying English, preparing for trip and qualification, and so on. But, recently, An employee in my father's store stopped working. So I have to work for my father's store. Actually, I'd not always work in there. If my father's store is busy, I'd go working. However, It's random.Therfore, I can't prospect when It's occured. In addtion, I got a new project. So I'd like to have ten bodies.

And I'm planning on traveling in Tokyo from July,29th to August, 3rd. But my high school friends are going to go to HyupJae or JoongMoon beach at that time. And the members in JS also have a plan at that time. I can't attend both of them.

Why do you come to me at the same time? ㅜ.ㅜ;

I got the result of this term today. The result is pass. Actually, I thought I wasn't able to pass because I was often nervous and stammered while I took conversation test. And I couldn't listen to dialog in midterm and final examination well. But my term project was very good. All of listeners applauded and said that I was best. My teacher also said "You are a excellent english speaker!".

So, finally, I was barely passed and I'm happy. I'll be level4 next term. But I won't register level4. Because I'll be busy after next month. I have to prepare for qualification, returning to school, and journey.

I attended the athletic meeting in JS(my inline club) & Arcxross(another inline club) on last Sunday. I joined in JS about 2 weeks ago. But JS is familiar with Arcxross. So we enjoyed athletic meeting together. I had played three-legged race, soccer, foot baseball, and dodge ball all the day. My T-shirt became dirty when I was a goal keeper because I slid so that I keep the ball. So I stripped off my shirt and wore only under-shirt after that.

I knew many people and became pleasure. But the scratch still smartsT-T. I'd like to be better.

It's yesterday when this situation was occured. I was eating lunch in my father's store. And my mother was also in there.

The telephone rang at that time. My mother answered it. And I felt that her voice was serious after a moment. I continuously heard her call. She said

"My son is not such person!".

She was still serious. My mother told me about the call after that.

"According to the sender, Seung-chul was stood surety for his friend. And his friend couldn't repay 10 million won. So Seung-chul is caught. Seung-chul instead of his friend has to repay it. "

I was struck dumb. My mother said that the sender is probably not Korean. His pronunciation is not good. If I wasn't with my mother, she would be embarrassed.

These days, I heard that this type of swindling is freqeuntly occured. Be careful.

I joined a inline skate club named JS a few days ago. The members of the club meet regularly in TopDong. So I also went to TopDong today. It was hard to ride inline skate because I haven't ridden for 4 years. But one of the members thought me well. And he is good inliner. I'll have to practice inline skate hard after today.

Let me tell you about a story that I had experienced when I was an extra in DaeJangKeum. I think that all of you already know about DaeJangKeum because it's a very famous T.V. drama.

So, anyway, I'll tell you about my story when I was used as an extra.

How could I have a part in that T.V. drama? Well, actually, I wasn't interested in it. But, during one party in my department, I heard that my senior had acted as a Chosun policeman, Pojol. So then I became very interested and asked him how could I have a part too. Therefore my senior made me act in the drama.

(Pointing to my senior as a Pojol) This is my senior. His name in the drama is Pandol. And he was also a Samurai.(Pointing to my senior as a Samurai) That is to say, he had two roles. So some viewers said that Pojol Pandol betrayed Chosun. But we were just extras and our roles could be different everyday.

The next is the scene that shows me. However, even though I had acted in about ten scenes, almost every scene was edited or showed me just a little. So I was disappointed.

(Poingting at myself in the pictures) This is me, This is also me. And this is also me.

(Pointing at one of the pictures) This scene was very difficult. It took about two hours to shoot it. But it's just a moment during the running time. Could you recognize me in this picture? I think it's hard to recognize me in this scene.

But there is a scene that shows me well. Look at this movie. (Pointing at myself in the movie) This is me.

Thus, I was able to feel the difficulties of actors or actresses. I think it's very worthy experience.

Thank you for your kind attention.

I think S/W Maintance is very important. And It's more difficult than development. I have fixed and added function on the S/Ws which are developed by me. But I seem that many people think developing S/W is difficult and important. So there is tendency to think about maintance insignificantly. But the cost of maintance is very high.

Most of the clients frequently request something which will be fixed and added. And then an officer assigned will have to take it. But the requests are infinite and never ending. And they are sometimes changed. For example, A client says "I want to use a function like this.". And then maintance officer will add function. And the client will sometimes say a few days after "I want to change the function. I tried to use it. However, I think that it and what I want are different."

If above events are frequently occured, maintance will become annoying work. So I think some people who work for S/W company must take the high cost of maintance into consideration. That's because they can't have only to put blame on clients. And developers have to think for convenient maintance when they work. Let us say, documentation, naming method, modulization, and so on.

Anyway, I wrote this article because I have been stressed for maintance. I hope that developers win public recognition.
