Responses about Future Family

Everybody want to marry and most of them want 2 or 3 children.

One people want 9 children.


Marriage time is depend on each people, some people want to marry after graduating, and some people between 26 and 30 years old.
They want to spend their weekend with their family to ........

The most popular way is watching movies and cooking with their family. It sounds nice! Nobody want to go on picnic, camping and hiking.

They seems to like ocean, because almost people want to live near the ocean. I agree with them. I also like a place surrounded nature.

Thank you for responding my question!

ruminea is always sleepy and tired. She sleep only 4 or 5 hours because she has to do her homework. I know she is good student and she always studys hard. It's important to keep up with class even if we are tired. But!! sleeping is also important. You need to sleep more. And me too. kk
She knows about computer well. I often ask her like, "how can I reply to classmate?". She is smart!

zzodory seems to like Japan, because he sometimes type in Japanse. If you want to learn Japanse, watching Japanse TV shows, movies and animations are easy to start to study Japanse. I know some my friends are studying by watching TV show or listening Japanse music. They can speak Japanse well, especially pronunciation. Anyway, he is kind of mysterious for me.

Do you believe in ghosts?

My answer is "Yes". I haven't seen a ghost, but I've heard that a friend of my friend can see ghost all the time. I wonder that what happen to her if she visit a haunted place like Savannah. Can she be in her right mind? or will she be crazy to be surrounded by many ghosts? Is I am her, I don't want to go to such a hounted place, because it's dangerous.
A guide of this tour talked about histories of Savannah. There are a lot of dead bodies under the ground. I tried to take pictures of some hounted spot, but I could't take a picture at the grave. I felt fear and creepy. I like river street, it's really nice. I liked it. I want to know that what people who live in here think about ghosts. We could see a lot of Spanish moss in Savannah. This trees make us more scary.

It was my first time to rafting. I was really excited! We got wet, so I was cold. I like such an exciting sport. I also enjoyed watching beautiful view while rafting. I could relax in the nature. I want to go to the rafting again.
