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?
I think having a massive wedding is not bad. But I don't need it. Because I'd like to spend money for the haneymoon rather than the wedding.
I disagree the eloping. Because a marrige is not matter between only two people. If I marry someone, my family also become a family of my husband. So when we marry someone, we need permission of our family for happiness of everyone.
I think having it on a foreign location like Hawaii is good. My cousin and his wife held their wedding in Hawaii. It was wonderful. There were beautiful view, romantic church, blue sky, and sea. If I can hold my wedding there, I would have never been happy.
I think a wedding is very big and important day. Because it will be only once in our life.(Maybe...I hope it.) And we can become a heroine at that day. I want to wear white glitter dress, and I want my family, best friends and relative to celebrate our wedding. So I long to have a wedding abroad. But if so, I will be able to invite almost everyone. Then I will have my wedding in Japan, and I will go abroad on my haneymoon.

Class Number 7 Superstitions
Do you think it is important to talk about many superstitions in many coutries? Why? Is communication affected by superstitions? Do you believe in Japanese superstitions? If so, what superstitions, what do they mean and why do you, use or believe?
I think it's important to talk about them. Because each country have different superstitions, they are very funny.
But I don't think that communication is affected by them. Because they are just superstitions. Some people believe them, and some people don't believe them, that's all. We may sometimes talk about it as a topic. That doesn't change anything. It is not so important for our life.
So I don't believe Japanese superstitions. There are lots of superstitions in Japan. If I believe one by one, it's too much.

For example, 「時は人を待たず」"Time can't wait for people"(I'm not sure that my translation is correct.)
