i think you have to not worry so much. if you like brand name things that is what you like. you will find people with similar interests. i think you worry too much!!! don't care what people think!! this is very western though. lots of japanese people care what other people think.

i would suggest you be who you are. if you have expensive bags than don't change, but your attitude is more important. if you say a stupid thing like this than people are not going to like you. people don't like stupid girls with expensive things. and i think that is what question 3 and 4 are saying. you are stupid and buy expensive things.

i can understand you worked hard and you like them. if you say that then people will respect you. what you are saying now is stupid and people will give you no respect.

good luck. i hope you get repect!!
