Weddings

Hi Enjoying the humidity? Like Dennis said, the weather seems to be the sujet-de-la-jour (French: “topic of the day”).

However, let's take a break from that… instead, let's talk about weddings:

On Saturday, two of my close friends are attending weddings. And now, I realize that many of my Japanese friends and friend's friends have been getting married recently.

In fact, one of my best Japanese friends is getting married in January. But he only met his fiancé 6 months ago He's rich & popular and says he's not much in-love with his fiancé; so I wondered: why is he getting married so quickly

Is this a big difference between Japanese and American marriages

In California, I only know three people who got married in the last two year. And both knew their fiancés for many years before marriage. But, statistics show that Japanese have fewer divorces less than Americans… so maybe getting married quickly is better

Myself, I like adventure. So I will probably get married quickly, like my Japanese friend.

But, anyway, it's too early to think about that! I just want to say congratulations to my friend on his engagement and wedding in January

Oh and I can give you a tip about the weather too: Wear less clothing!

Bye bye!
