Since Japanese weddings are expensive, do you think having a massive wedding like Korea or UAE is a good idea? Eloping? Having it in a foreign location like Hawaii?What is your ideal wedding? What would you definitely do or wear or go to on that big day? Why is that important?
1. Do you think having a massive wedding like Korea or UAE is a good idea?Eloping?Having it in a foreign location like Hawaii?
I don't think to have a massive wedding is not a good idea. It may be good to save your money, but i don't want to celebrate my wedding with tottaly strangers. I want to celebrate my wedding with just families, friends, work friends, people that i want to celebrate with each other. Now, it has become popular having a wedding in foreign countries, and i think it could be a really nice. I want to do that in my wedding, but only if i could afford money for that. It should be very expensive, and i think not many people can come to the wedding.
2. What is your ideal wedding? What would you definitely do or wear or go to on that big day? Why is that important?
As I said before, i want to have my wedding ceremony in foreign country, maybe somewhere in Europe and somerwhere near beach or lake. I want to have out door party after the wedding and have fun with my friends and family. On wedding day, I defiitely want to make a little speech for my parents and i want to make a movie using pictures to show how i have grown up.
I really want to show my appereciation for my parents, so make a little speech for my paretens is really important for me.

Superstitions Homework
We talked about many superstitions in many countries, but do you think it is important to talk about them? Why?
Is communication affected by superstitions?Do you believe in Japanese superstitions? If so, what superstitions, what do they mean and why do you do,use, or believe in them?
1, Do you think it is important to talk about them? Why ?
I think it's importnat to talk, because superstition is based on their country's value, daily life, or religious, and it's good to know to understantd their life or culture. It doesn't matter if you believe them or not, but those superstition has came down with generations, so there would be something that made those superstition and i think it would be really fun to know them !!
2, Is communication affected by superstitions?
My age, i think our communication is not affected by superstitions that much. We do talk about that if it happens, like when we find a four-leaf clover, but it's not often. I think my gradparents age, they would believe more and talk more about the superstitions, cause my grandmother tells me about superstitions a lot, so i could say my gradparents generations, the comminivation is more affected by superstitions.

I believe some superstition, one that bring me a good luck. For examle, when i find a four-leaf clover and see a shooting star. It doesn't happen that much, so if it happens, i feel so happy and i feel something good luck will happen. I don't usually believe superstition with bad luck, because i don't want care about the bad luck.
Homework #4
The English language has many proverbs and sayings about time.
1. Time is money.
2.A stitch in time saves nine.
3.There's no time like the present.
4. Fashionable late.
Please explain what you think are the meanings of each of the 4 expressions
1,Time is money
This is the famous proverb. Time is eqal for everybody. It's up to you how to spend your day, 24 hours. This proverb reminds me that if i waste my time, it's like waste of my money. I don't want to waste my money, because it's important for me to live. I should more careful about how to spend my time. Because time is same as money.
The meaning of this expression is, if you waste of your time, it's like wasting your money. Money is not eqal for everybody, but time is eqal. Everybody gets 24 hours a day. We have to think about that to not to waste our time.
2. A stitch in time saves nine.
Other three expressions are new to me. I've never heard of these proverbs, so let me look for the dictionary. Sorry about that. In dictionary, it says that it is better to deal with problems early than to wait until they get worse. It really makes sence. I think that's true. When we have a problem or thing we don't want to face, people tend to not to deal with those problems and leave them until they get worse. I do now, like my graduate thesis. but i cant leave it cause i will not able to graduate if i don't write it. This sentence is really good proverb for me to face my problems. Good to know !!!!
3.There's no time like the present.
In dictionary, it says; Now is a good time to do something.
Example sentence A:"I should probably was the car" B: " yeah, there's no time like the present"
First, i thought that this proverb would be a same meaning as time is money. But when i looked it up in dictionary it was totaly different. Even though, i know all of the words of the sentence, it doesn't mean that i get the true meaning. I have to learn more English, there's no time like the present =)
4. Fasionable late
In dictionary there is no explanation of this sentence, so i have to guess. I think fashinable late means that someone or something really late for something. If someone comes really late, it could be said "He made a fashinable late" i think. But i don't know the true meaning, so i should ask somebody... !!!
