1st class

1. Reflecting about today's class
I agree the idea of the Japanese concept of "wrapping", because the porch of Japanese house cannot see the inside. the example of wrapping is about clothes. when I went to America in summer, people in America wore no sleeve shirt, very short pants, and showing their stomach. lately, Japanese young woman wear like that clothes, but not so many people. so, i think this is the one thing that can be called "wrapping".

2. Preparation for the next class
a.when i die, I won't go anywhere. i just stay in the sky and wait until my spirit be born again.
b. Japanese have death memorial services after a person's death, to serve dinner and sutra recitation. This is for the memory of dead person and to appreciate for the person who came the funeral and priest.

Wrapping culture can be found anywhere in Japan, and I think like you said, the the way to wear is one of them. I also think it's one of the way to think that wrapping culture comes from the character of Japanese considering the fact that Japanese people are shy compare to America. We don't show our skin really, but as you know, it doesn't come from our religion or something like India,so.

I want to go to heaven when I die, and I want to watch my family and house from there.
