Homework #3

Questions
1. Do you judge people according to what they wear? Why?

Yes, I do. I think cloth is a part of identity. When you meet the person who has never seen ,
how can you judge him? Perhaps you will see his cloth or what he has. if he wear the dirty cloth, you try to wrap it up the situation. if he has a Rolex, you think he must be rich definitely. this is why what you wear is a kind of information for making a decision.

2 Do you think Japanese society puts an importance on clothing when judging other people from another country?

It depends on the person. I have no idea. But I dont make up my mind the person's personality by clothing

RED and BLUE

1. What are some subjects that you will never discuss with a friend?

Parents income. I dont have good sujects now...



2. Do you have different friends for different parts of your life? If so, how are they different to you? Do you talk about different things? Go to different places? Give me some examples.

Yes I have. They are completely different from me. Age, fashion and lifestyle etc, so I choose topics very carefully and use polite words when I talk with them, because most of them are much older than me. And also they go to different places. I sometimes enjoy playing golf, fishing, party, windsurfing with them. these are really great experiences for me.
